Oklahoma Sooners fans, I’m sorry.
Your Brent Venables-led football team just had one of the more embarrassing performances that I can remember.
Yeah, I know, starting quarterback Dillion Gabriel missed the game due to being in the concussion protocol, but that isn’t an excuse for putting up a donut in the Red River Showdown.
The 49-0 shellacking at the hands of Quinn Ewers and the Texas Longhorns will go down as a memorable one. It was the largest margin of victory for the Longhorns in this series, and it also was the first time in nearly 24 years that OU had been shut out of a football game.
And for my betting crowd, OU’s 49-0 loss was possibly its worst since 2006. The Sooners entered today’s contest as 7-point underdogs.
Oklahoma (+7) loses 49-0 to Texas, a 42-point loss against the spread.
It's Oklahoma's worst loss ATS since at least 2006.
Second-worst ATS loss was Dec. 29, 2014 (40-6 loss to Clemson as a 6-point favorite)

Oklahoma will have to live with this one for a year until it meets Texas again next season.
Brutal.
