OU/Texas Game Moved To Wednesday

Speaking of Saturday’s double-overtime win, the Sooners have another 24 hours to get their legs back underneath them before hosting #12 Texas. Due to the harsh winter weather the Big 12 announced on Monday that the game would be pushed back from Tuesday to Wednesday evening. No television or tip time has been announced yet.
