There isn't a better contemporary high school football rivalry than this one. The Backyard Brawl, played annually at University of Tulsa's Chapman Stadium, matches the only two programs to win the Oklahoma Class 6A title since 1996. An interesting twist is that only three of the last nine regular-season winners went on to win the state crown.
Preview / QwixcoreJenks holds a slim 13-12 edge over Union since the programs began dominating Oklahoma's largest classification. However, the Trojans have lost three in a row to Union, including a 30-29 heartbreaker in last year's state semifinals.
