The atmosphere at the stadium for the Red River Rivalry is really like none other in all of sports. Half of the stadium is burnt orange and the other half is crimson. This weekend both teams have a ton on the line as they look to add another chapter to one of the best college rivalries in the nation. Oklahoma will look to assert themselves as the true #1 team in the country by taking down Texas, but the Longhorns are much improved and there is not better place to make a statement than in the Cotton Bowl.
Upper Deck chronicled some of the “Monumental Moments” from past Red River Rivalry games in the company’s new University of Texas and University of Oklahoma football trading card products. Both will hit store shelves in early November and we are interested to see which product will outsell the other. With both programs having such a storied history, there are plenty of great moments and players fans can use to lend merit to their argument about which team has the best program.
Let us hear you defend why you think the Sooners are the better program or why you feel the Longhorns are the best collegiate program for your chance to receive a blow-up card from the new set of Colt McCoy or Sam Bradford. Just submit your comment right here on the blog and we will randomly select one Texas and one Oklahoma fan on Monday to receive these two larger than life cards. Good luck college football fans!
