OU/texass Series Record In YOUR Lifetime...

[SoonerEmpire]

Lets do something different. When people talk about the series record of this game as a whole, it usually ends up being modified to the record within the past (insert whatever number of years to support your argument here) amongst both OU fans AND texass fans. And yes, texass fans, I know what the overall record is, as we all do. But lets make it a tad more of a unique discussion. Rather than texass fans saying they've won "2 of the last 3", or OU fans saying they've won "6 of the last 8", etc... lets take a look at the series within our own lifetimes. Go to:

and tally up the win/loss record starting with your DOB. What's the series record in YOUR lifetime? I was born in 1978 (5 days before the game that year). The series record in my lifetime is deadlocked at a tie:

OU: 14 wins, 14 losses, 2 ties

For me, this years game serves as a tie breaker with regard to the series record since I've been around. What a great rivalry we have! Doesn't get much better than that!

[SbOrOiNaEnR]

Born in 1986, so OU: 11-10-1...although the Smellsofbourbon tie might as well be a loss.

14-15-3

hopefully we tie it up this year :)

[sooner518]

OU leads 13-11-2

yay for 1982!!

[SoonerEmpire]

14-15-3

hopefully we tie it up this year :)

I think you're in luck. Not only will we tie it up this year (for YOUR series record, anyway), but we'll also score our 30 thousandth point in this one! Kinda makes it even more special for you, eh? ;)

[GottaHavePride]

Born in 1980. 13-13-2.

[mojorisen2014]

Born in 1975. 15-15-3

[Indy Sooner]

19-19-3 ... a difficult first four years of my life as the record stood 0-4 at that point.

[Fraggle145]

Born in 1980. 13-13-2.

ditto.

[OU86]

[Paperclip]

[Paperclip]

On a side note, I've attended each RRS since 1991. My record in games attended is 8-8-1.

[OU-HSV]

Born in 1980. 13-13-2.

Edit: Oops, my bad, I got this thread and the thread about "record when you're at the game" mixed up. Forgive me. :)

[tulsaoilerfan]

Born in 65, but i was born after that year's game so i'm not counting it; overall i'm 20-19-3

[Sooner04]

Born in '82: the year of Dupree. OU is 13-11-2 against Texas in my lifetime.

How many of you guys are geeks like me and can rattle who won each game and the score without the assistance of Soonerstats? Yeah, I got laid A LOT growing up for that ability.

[kelloggOUballa]

yall seeing what I'm seeing? This series is pretty much a dead heat for as long as anyone can remember. Texas padded the series lead before they used helmets and facemasks...

[SCOUT]

1971
19-15-3, started out 5-0. Woo hoo!
Ditto

[Alum81]

19-27-3. Born in 1958. However, in games I've attended:

Oh, I'm going this year!

[WA. Sooner]

20-21-3 born 1964 after the game so that is a even .500

[DallasSooner87]

10-10-1 born in 87. Interesting side note. Just about everyone who posted is .500 in their lifetime. That is a sign of a good rivalry.

[Okie35]

12-10-2

[King Crimson]

19-17-3

mos def needed soonerstats. too many losses to Freddie Akers and 90-94....don't even go there.

[guzziguy]

Don't want to do the count. The late 50s and most of the 60s were awful. I'm certain the tally would swing toward Texas. I don't want to know for sure.

I just want another W on Saturday.

[BoonesFarmSooner]

1971
19-15-3, started out 5-0. Woo hoo!


Born in May of '71, but I refuse to accept the tie in 1984 when Keith Stanbury intercepted the pass in the endzone. So the real series record in my lifetime is:

20-15-2

[MichiganSooner]

Born in 1952. 26-27-3. 49%. So after winning tomarrow, 27-27-3.

[KingBarry]

Born in 65, but i was born after that year's game so i'm not counting it; overall i'm 20-19-3

Thanks, oilerfan. I don't have to do the math. We've already got a winning record. Let's stretch that lead this year.

[OUmillenium]

1972 BD for me. My mom's regular DR. was out of town because he was at the OU-Tex game! (supposedly, I'll have to do some research) I was born on Friday the 13th. Almost every year we celebrate my birthday as part of our OU-Tex watch party. Good stuff!

I think the record is 17-15-3

[TheUnnamedSooner]

1979


13-14-2 :( At least it will be tied back up tomorrow!

[cjames317]

My OU lifetime began when I enrolled in 1980, so:

13-13-2

[RFH Shakes]
