They are lovers. When they first joined the conference, having no association with any Texas or Oklahoma fans previously, I imagined there would be some antagonism between the fan-bases.

This isn't so; they love each other with a burning passion. It is very difficult to find a Texas fan criticizing Oklahoma or vice-versa on this site.

Rivalries clearly don't mean the same thing to people from that area of the nation as they mean to old SEC affiliated people. To Texans and Okies, I'm starting to think that they think that the word rivalry means to be subservient to one another and to ingratiate themselves with each other to a nauseating degree.

I have a large number of Texas Ex's in my extended family. They ALL hate OU more than any other team. Ags are a distant second.

Personally, I don't really believe you or any other Oklahoma fan here really dislikes Texas. They respect them to such a huge extent that they can't bring themselves to seriously criticize them.

This post reeks of fear..

Fear that one of us will take over as top dog and/or at least knock Bammer down a rung.

A&M and Texas are rivals, sure. That can be easily determined; there is good old fashioned hate there.

Texas and Oklahoma, not so much. They seem to mutually fellate each other so diligently they they can't take the time to hate.

I really don't give a rat's squirt of piss what you believe or don't believe to be honest.

You don't know what you're talking about, much like half the posters on this board. You only know what you know, which is a silly myopic viewpoint of how you and your fans relate to Auburn.

It's not the same. Stick to what you know.

It’s weird to tbh. They don’t hate each other like A&M and horn do, or Bama hates Auburn & Tennessee, or how Tennessee hates Bama, and how LSU hates Ole Miss and Bama. Or Ole Miss hates LSU and State. Or how Arkansas hates everyone. I think they are lovers.

Take this post more as an inquiry. Some of us are curious as to what Texas and Oklahoma fans consider a rivalry; what it means to them.

Does rivalry mean supportive friendship to you?

This type of stuff seems to be a recurring them in your posts.

I’m sensing some projection (not that there’s anything wrong with that!)

Exactly, there is absolutely no animosity present, no dislike, and no bitterness whatsoever between the fansbases.

Before they joined the conference, I always imagined Texas and Oklahoma to really be something serious, you know, I guess because I had heard of the Red River Rivalry.

But, wow, they are like one fanbase, one group of people with no daylight between them.

Texas and OU hate each other, sure. Unfortunately, they share a state with their respective little brothers (several for Texas) that are much more annoying to deal with given how often said little brothers nip at their heels begging for attention

Have you ever said anything negative about an Oklahoma fan or the Oklahoma team?

None of you have ever been to Dallas on Texas/OU weekend if you believe this. IDC what you believe though, carry on.

I know what I see. Constantly, here, there are Oklahoma fans siding with Texas fans in support on any argument or discussion.

It's like a symbiotic relationship wherein the two fan-bases feel they have to bond together, as one entity, to brave their new surroundings.

I have been waiting on some true dislike, some senseless bashing, something to happen on the board between the two groups and, NOTHING.
