<p>Oklahoma and Alabama are as iconic as it gets when it comes to college football,and this book describes what has occurred when they have met. The author, who has spent most of his life in the two states, recalls the six meetings from 1963 to2018 between his beloved Sooners and the Crimson Tide. Edgar Frost has seen both sides of the rivalry, growing up in Oklahoma but living in Tuscaloosa for 27 years and teaching at the University of Alabama. He has been in the press boxes and the locker rooms of both teams and has taught at both universities. He has written for university publications in both places. Frost grew up on Bud Wilkinson and OU football and arrived in Tide country when Bear Bryant was ruling the roost and winning national championships. His wife is from Oklahoma, but his kids were born in Birmingham and Tuscaloosa. The Sooners and the Crimson Tide have signed to play home-and-home in 2032 and 2033, but the author hopes they will meet again before then. From Wilkinson to Lincoln Riley and from Bryant to Nick Saban, the two powers have battled fiercely on the gridiron. Those playing in the games have ranged from Joe Namath and Derrick Henry to Tua Tagovailoa and from Greg Pruitt and Jason White to Kyler Murray. When these two great programs have butted heads, the contests have been for serious bragging rights that anyone who loves the college game will enjoy reliving--and anticipating what is to come.</p>
