The top-ranked Longhorns play 18th-ranked Oklahoma in the Red River Rivalry game tomorrow at the Cotton Bowl.
Why it matters: This is the first time the rivalry will take place under the banner of the SEC.
State of play: This year's game is the 120th meeting between the two football programs.
Yes, but: Oklahoma beat UT last year and has dominated in the last 10 matchups, losing only twice.
Threat level: Kickoff is at 2:30pm, much later than usual. Temperatures are expected to be in the 90s.
What to know: The State Fair of Texas will open at 7am tomorrow, earlier than usual to allow fans time before the game.
What's next: UT takes on fifth-ranked Georgia on Oct. 19 in Austin.
