Tom Herman gave his Texas players a primer on Saturday's meeting with Oklahoma in the Big 12 Championship Game and what it isn't.
It isn't October. It isn't the Red River Showdown in Fair Park. It isn't for the Golden Hat.
Yeah, but it's still Texas-OU with all kinds of ill will and even more at stake than other meetings because of when it's occurring.
A win for No. 5 Oklahoma -- coupled with a win by No. 1 Alabama over No. 4 Georgia in the SEC title game -- and the Sooners stand a very good chance to hold off No.
