The good news for Oklahoma motorists heading to this year’s OU-Texas football game is they can fill up their gas tanks with prices about 40 cents per gallon cheaper in Texas than in Oklahoma.
The bad news is — like most years — traffic is likely to be heavy, with at least 24,000 additional vehicles than usual crossing the Red River on two major highways alone, officials said.
The annual rivalry game kicks off at 11 a.m. Saturday at the Cotton Bowl in Dallas. The State Fair of Texas is also being held through Oct. 23 outside the stadium.
“Gas is one thing Sooner fans can save on,” AAA Oklahoma spokeswoman Leslie Gamble said. “Before heading south, we urge fans to get their vehicles ready with checks of tires and all vehicle systems to avoid unexpected breakdowns in heavy traffic.”
