The undefeated #1 Texas Longhorns trot into town this weekend to face the #18 Oklahoma Sooners at the Cotton Bowl.

Saturday marks the 120th meeting between the teams, but this is the first time they have met as members of the Southeastern Conference.“Bragging rights are always an issue, and no matter where these teams rank, they want to show up to compete,” said Nate Gross, VP of Fair Operations. Gross says national media outlets like the SEC Network and Barstool Sports will broadcast from the State Fair for the game.“When your average daily attendance is nearly doubled on this particular day, you have to have an extra three to four hours just to get everybody in, and we want people to experience the fair in addition to the game,” said Gross.
