The Big 12 Championship Game could be a rematch of one of college football’s most storied rivalries. Oklahoma and Texas, two of the most successful programs in the Big 12, are both in contention for the conference title and could face off in the championship game.
The Red River Rivalry between Oklahoma and Texas is one of the most anticipated matchups in college football. The two teams have been playing each other since 1900, and the rivalry has been a staple of the Big 12 since the conference’s inception in 1996. The rivalry has been so intense that the teams play each other at the Cotton Bowl in Dallas every year, and the game is known as the Red River Showdown.
If Oklahoma and Texas both win their remaining games, they will meet in the Big 12 Championship Game. This would be the first time since 2008 that these two teams have faced off in the championship game. The last time they met in the championship game, Oklahoma won 45-35.
The stakes are high for both teams this year, as the winner of the Big 12 Championship Game will likely earn a spot in the College Football Playoff. Both teams have had strong seasons so far, and a rematch in the championship game would be an exciting way to cap off the year.
No matter who wins, it’s sure to be an exciting matchup between two of college football’s most storied programs. The Red River Rivalry between Oklahoma and Texas has been a part of college football for over a century, and a rematch in the Big 12 Championship Game would be a fitting way to end the season.
