Sarge is right the OU-Texas game is like no other game. This isn't a rivalry like OU-Nebraska, which is a friendly contest between friends. OU-Texas is a war hence the name Red River Shootout. This year will be worse than normal with Texas and Oklahoma swapping the #2 and #3 poll positions back and forth.

The Longhorn - A&M rivalry is like wise still in full force. Tension between KState-Colorado-Nebraska is not showing any signs of slowing down it's only increasing.

College Football is alive and well. If anything it is taking away from the NFL. As a rule College Stadiums are bigger and much more likely to sell out. The top ten possibly twenty college teams generate more revenue than any NFL team. And no matter where they are ranked nobody generates as much as Notre Dame if memory serves me correctly.
