Oklahoma Sooners vs. Texas Longhorns will be a great game!

College football would not be the same if there wasn’t rivalry games. If fans didn’t have that one game every year to look forward to that allowed them really rowdy and earn bragging rights until the next game, they may not get as excited about the less-popular games. A perfect example of this is the Oklahoma Sooners - Texas Longhorns rivalry. When the Big 12 Conference was created, the founders had hoped that intra-conference rivalries like the OSU vs. UT rivalry would develop… fans pay big bucks to go to these games and they often get hyped media attention.

The Sooners - Longhorns game continues to grow and in a recent interview with Texas Coach Mack Brown, in his opinion it is only getting bigger. Brown feels that with each passing years the traditions and hype will only grow and fans should expect that the October 17th match-up this year will be the bigget yet. If you are planning on going to this game and you don’t already have your tickets I would suggest getting them now, Sooners fans and Longhorns fans are known for being some of the most fanatic in the league and they will sell out this game! Lots of 3rd party ticket brokerages still have seats, you just have to be willing to look for them!!

Kansas Jayhawks recruit a Nebraska Cornhuskers potential

The Kansas Jayhawks have had lots of success with recruiting in the past few years, and the class of 2010 is no different. With all of the Big 12 schools be fairly similar in terms of size, academics and location (each school has something different to offer of course, but none of them are head and shoulders above the rest) it is no wonder that the Big 12 Conference football programs duke it out for recruits… this class has been no exception.

One of the most recent recruiting upsets came when Keeston Terry, who had be informally committed to the Nebraska Cornhuskers was a strong verbal commitment to the Kansas Jayhawks for the recruiting class of 2010. Keeston Terry is the son of Doug Terry a former KU player. Terry also had offers from Stanford, Nebraska, Wisconsin, Illinois, K-State and Mizzou. Terry said that he ultimately decided to be a part of the Kansas Jayhawks roster because Lawrence, Kansas was the best fit for him. Terry has lots of skill in finding running routes and has great speed.

Keeston Terry is not the only potential Nebraska Cornhuskers recruit who committed to the Kansas Jayhawks, leading me to believe that the Jayhawks-Cornhuskers rivalry game will be even more heated this year than it usually is! My guess is tickets to this game and the rest of the Jayhawks tickets will be a hot commodity.. By them early!
