Before heading to Texas, swing by Norman, Oklahoma, to visit one of the most storied college football stadiums in history—Gaylord Family Oklahoma Memorial Stadium, home of the Oklahoma Sooners. With a capacity of over 80,000, this stadium erupts with noise on Saturdays, especially when the Sooners play Texas in the legendary Red River Rivalry. The sight of the Sooner Schooner wagon racing onto the field is an iconic college football moment, and if you catch a night game, the stadium becomes an absolute madhouse. Home of: Oklahoma Sooners (NCAA)
