Two college football powerhouses are returning to Dallas for a century-old battle of the border—the Texas Longhorns and the Oklahoma Sooners—in what is called the Red River Showdown. On Saturday, October 14, tens of thousands of diehard Longhorn and Sooner fans will make their way to Cotton Bowl Stadium where they hope to cheer their team to victory. And this year, fans can focus on game day and leave the getting there to Uber.
