The Red River Rivalry, commonly known as the Red River Shootout, or the OU-Texas/Texas-OU game, is the annual college football game between the University of Texas Longhorns and the University of Oklahoma Sooners. The series is considered one of the greatest rivalries in American sports. The name is derived from the Red River that forms part of the boundary between the U.S. states of Texas and Oklahoma. The game originated in 1900, while Oklahoma was still a United States territory and the Oklahoma campus was still in Oklahoma Territory. The 2011 Annual Red River rivalry will take place March 8th at the Cotton Bowl.
