Does Oklahoma need exposure to help recruiting?

I wouldn't think so. Last time I checked they are still the Oklahoma Sooners

3 times. Missed last year. Its a great game, but I think a night game at DKR vs OU would be an unbelievable atmosphere. RRS is about as good as you can get for a day game, but for some reason night games seem to have a little more to them. Dohesnt have to be 1-1-1, appy with neutral, home, neutral, home. I would just love to see OU in DKR once. I think it would be amazing.

ya it would be fun to score 60 on da horns in Austin, LOL!~

home and home only, if the CB shuts down, otherwise, leave it be.

Everyone needs exposure. Bama takes their trip to TExas. Recruiting is an endless battle, any chance you get to put recruits together in your name is a good thing.

If I recall this is because of stadium renovations. Remember that big stadium upgrade the University is set to start soon.

I believe they wanted to schedule an away game, which would allow more time to ensure everything is ready for the Ohio State in Norman a couple of weeks later.

Put this on Castligione not Stoops.

But what the hell. If OU can't beat Houston on the road then they aren't a National Champion caliber team anyway. Might as well find out as soon as we can. I want some NC's! I'm tired of watching Stoops brag about conference championships after OU has lost 1-2 games.

That sounds reasonable if we didn't already have a home game with ULM on Sept 3rd 2016, but maybe they are replacing that game with Houston or moving it. The renovations has to be the answer to this.

:agree:
But, it's always a better season for me if we lose late as opposed to losing the first game.

Houston is the opener now, so it's probably moved

Yeah, I know, it's all about recruiting blah blah blah, but I don't think it will do much good for recruiting if we go down and lose the game.
Just sayin

I don't know about that. Show a recruit that you have 30K screaming fans at an away game on a losing effort and tell them imagine what it will be like playing in Norman and winning.

Texas has 6 home games this year also. OU and Texas have years where they only get 4 home games in Conference. One reason I would not mind seeing the RRS go to a home, home, and neutral format.



That's a terrible idea. In today's era of CFB where history and tradition do not mean anything anymore, it's good to see some of that is still in tact with the RRSO. No need to change it up.

Well, the city of Dallas needs to up the payoff then.
150,000 people converge on the city, each dropping ungodly amounts of money in 1 weekend.

Fuck those sorry sum bitches.
