OU's Number One Fan Prepares for Red River Rivalry
OKLAHOMA CITY, OK-- Michael Christian has been a Sooner fan for as long as he can remember.
"I'm not a bandwagon fan, put it that way," he said.
Some know Christian as the "Stats Master."
"DeMarco Murray was the leading touchdown for his career at 65," Christian explained.
From offense to defense, to scores from each Red River Rivalry Game, Christian knows his Sooner Football history.
"2003, 65-13," he recalls, "2004, 12-0."
A fifteen year volunteer with OU Athletics, Christian spends most of his time volunteering with the baseball team, but when it's time for the OU-Texas Game, you are sure to find him in the stands.
"I can't describe it," he said, "people actually have to experience it for themselves."
Christian has traveled down to Dallas for the Red River Rivalry Game for the last three years, but his mother, Polly Christian, will never forget watching her son run through the tunnel at his first Red River Rivalry Game as a child.
"I cried," she remembers, "I was so excited, yeah, it was just one of those things that bring special memories."
Polly says Christian's father was a member of the OU Chain Crew, so in their family, love for the Oklahoma Sooners runs deep.
"I always support them," said Christian, "no matter what."
Christian's family heads down to Dallas for the game on Friday, and he's cautiously optimistic for a Sooners victory.

Pace slows in testing after Tulsa health scare
May 24, 2013 12:51 GMT
TULSA, Okla. (AP) -- Additional tests reveal no new cases of hepatitis or the virus that causes AIDS among patients of a Tulsa oral surgeon accused of running dirty clinics.
The pace of people seeking testing has slowed. About 3,900 patients of Dr. W. Scott Harrington have gone to state clinics for testing. In March, health departments urged testing for 7,000 patients. Just 54 patients sought tests within the past week.
Inspectors said they found unsanitary conditions inside Harrington's clinics at Tulsa and Owasso.
So far, 70 patients have tested positive for hepatitis C, five for hepatitis B and three for HIV, but there is no indication the diseases spread at the clinics. Health experts say the spread of disease in dental clinics is extremely rare.
Harrington is cooperating with the investigation.
