Bad blood continues to boil in OU-Texas feud

Texas coach Darrell Royal accused Barry Switzer of spying on his practices, prompting both coaches to volley insults through the media. There for the pregame coin toss, President Gerald Ford failed to get either coach to talk to one another while meeting both before the game, which ended in a tie.

Now, another tie has ratcheted up the bad blood.

Texas fans continue to be incensed their Longhorns were passed over for the Big 12 Championship for a team they beat by double digits.

Sooner fans remain irate Texas tried to change the rules midstream, then claimed a Big 12 title it didn't even play in.

"Some of our fans are still bitter about things that were done," said Sooner quarterback Sam Bradford.

Tiebreakers and flyovers and asterisks and Jamarkus McFarland have left fan bases on both sides seething still.

"It's out there and you can't help but notice it," said former Texas football and baseball player Keith Moreland, now color commentator for the Longhorn radio broadcasts. "I cover other sports and do other things, but always, there's not a chance I can walk into any place with anybody who's known what I've done for the last 10 years that they don't ask about this particular rivalry and something that's taken place between last year's game and this point.
