It was fine when OU was in the Big 8 and Texas in the SWC. However, they are now in the same conference and should play home and away games just like every other team. The 2 bad personal foul calls (when McCoy conveniently fell down unmolested) and the one badly missed holding call on the Texas student body right play late in the came could have reversed the outcome. The game was that close. If there's a contract, play it out then set it right and treat Texas just like any other Big 12 South opponent. It’s time to rethink the annual game at the Cotton Bowl.
