WICHITA FALLS–All-Star games often provide exciting, close, high-scoring games.

That wasn't entirely the case in the 68th annual Oil Bowl game, as Oklahoma defeated Texas, 38-7, at Memorial Stadium on Saturday night.

In a contest featuring outgoing high school football standouts, Oklahoma's All-Stars shined much brighter than Texas'. Even with 19 Division I recruits to Oklahoma's 13, the Texas All-Stars couldn't get anything going.

Texas didn't score until four seconds remained in the first half and was held to 18 rushing yards on 21 carries while allowing 19 points in the first half.

The most exciting play for Texas was an 18-yard fumble return in the fourth quarter by Waco linebacker Shon Brown, who is headed to Baylor, with the score 33-7 in favor of Oklahoma.

As if things couldn't get any worse for Texas, it gave up a safety in the final minute of the game on a fumbled snap.

Southlake Carroll quarterback Chase Daniel, who will attend Missouri in the fall, struggled, going 2-for-9 with an interception and a lost fumble in two quarters.

It was that kind of night for the entire team. Texas posted its first points at the end of the second quarter after a 75-yard drive led by quarterback Blake Szymanski (a Baylor signee from Wichita Falls Rider) that closed the margin to 19-7 going into halftime.

Texas couldn't contain Oklahoma's speedy running attack, as it chalked up 133 yards on 41 carries.

The Oklahoma defensive line stymied Texas, frequently hurrying the quarterback and holding the Texans to 18 rushing yards.

Oklahoma has got to win every once in awhile... what is the series record at now? I could have told you Texas was going to get killed... the coach picked (or should I say Oil Bowl politics) this yr for Texas is from podunk Henrietta who has no clue how to coach. Get a decent coach and this game would have been a lot closer.

Overall record (wins): Texas: 41 Oklahoma: 17 -1 tie-
