Fashionista: Going down south to the land of grits and crop tops
Sooners to be exposed to backwoods couture
Down south we go, where the “Fowl” Winds blow!
Bonjour, mon Ami! Yes, your fair Fashionista has made it home from the Great White North. Though I did have a bit of a struggle entering the country from Canada.
Once the uniformed henchmen realized how wonderfully I was dressed, they demanded I give them some fashion tips to make their own dreary regalia more becoming. I was not sure their commanding officers were going to sign off on the new look until one walked in wearing a charming hot pink beret!
I left them beaucoup Crimson and Cream accoutrement before heading south.
Now, where was I? Oh, yes! South Carolina. How very backwoods! And with a mascot that represents a misdemeanor. Of course, we are the Sooners, so I shall say no more on the subject.
Returning Mateer stumbles, Sooners fall 23-6 to Longhorns in Red River Rivalry
Oklahoma fans who have attended many Red River Rivalries know seemingly how often game turns on turnovers, an explosive kicking game play or a big play that alters momentum.
The 2025 version of the rivalry, in which Texas upset sixth-ranked Oklahoma 23-6, was no exception.
The story line was about Sooners QB John Mateer returning to action a mere 17 days after having surgery on his throwing hand
John Mateer threw for 202 yards, but he also threw three interceptions in his return. Mateer completed 20 of 38 passes and said he felt fine physically. The junior transfer quarterback said he just didn’t play good enough for the Sooners (5-1, 1-1 Southeastern Conference).
“The pain level was nothing. I mean there’s no excuse,” said Mateer, who was 20-of-38 passing and sacked five times. “I was ready to go physically, but mentally I just didn’t perform.”
