NORMAN, Oklahoma – As one of the most important Bedlam games in recent memory draws near, Oklahoma Sports talked to legendary coaches from both sides: OSU’s Pat Jones and OU’s Barry Switzer.

Both coaches discussed the history of the Bedlam rivalry and whether Saturday’s matchup is the most anticipated ever. Switzer and Jones also focused on the 1984 Bedlam game, the first of five in which the two coached against each other and the only time both teams were ranked in the nation’s top five.
