Before heading down to the game, there's warning from Dallas police. Take a good look before you buy any O-U/Texas tickets off the street.

More than three-thousand fake tickets turned up last week for the Grambling State/Prairie View A&M game at the Cotton Bowl. Police say most of the forgeries were easy to spot. Their advice is to check the tickets carefully and make sure they're not printed on plain paper.

If you have tickets to sell, keep in mind it's illegal to scalp tickets on public property in Dallas. We're told undercover officers will be on duty.
