Oklahoma’s Athletic Director Joe Castiglione joined the Franchise on Friday morning to discuss college football in 2020.
During his appearance, he made a brief but key revelation for Sooner fans this season: OU-Texas has no plans to move away from the Cotton Bowl this season.
“We’re still playing in the Cotton Bowl,” he said. “We have a contract to play in the Cotton Bowl.”

Castiglione confirmed that there is an ongoing conversation revolving around the game, but that discussion has yet to venture into the possibility of moving the game to a new location.
“In the conversations we’ve had with the University of Texas, our plan is to play in the Cottom Bowl,” he said. “We’re just sitting here hoping we can play the game.”
The Big 12’s signature rivalry game has remained in limbo since the State Fair of Texas was canceled in early July.
