Considering 3-400 students showed up for their big rally last night, I'm confident there will be tickets available.

Is the Texas-OU rivalry dead?
As the Sooners look ahead to Saturday's AT&T Red River Showdown with Texas at the Cotton Bowl Stadium, they are undefeated at 4-0, while Texas is 1-4. The Longhorns haven't been this bad this early in the season since the Eisenhower Administration.
Texas sits near the bottom of a bunch of national defensive stats. No team in the Bowl Subdivision has allowed more first downs.
And so Berry Tramel, columnist of the Oklahoman, argues Oklahoma State is now the Sooners' big rival. A portion of his column
Texas no longer is OU's arch-rival. The fans have spoken. They've been speaking for several years. OSU is the Sooners' most hated foe. Bedlam is the biggest bloodsport on the schedule.
UT has a .500 conference record the last 5 1/2 seasons. OU fans express much more disgust about the Cowboys than the Longhorns, through their correspondence with media, public actions and private conversation. Which is to be expected. Both sides live here. That's not true with the 'Horns.
And the recent Bedlams have been fabulous. Remember when OU-Texas was the highest drama on the sports calendar? Those days are long gone. Since 1997, only three OU-Texas games have been decided by single digits. Meanwhile, Bedlam is an instant classic almost every year.
See, that's the thing. Arch-rivalry replacement happens with movement on two fronts. OSU's ascension into a legitimate threat, but also Texas' descent.
