One of the top rivalries in Oklahoma high school football has a new home this season.

Suburban Tulsa superpowers Jenks and Bixby face off in the Battle for the Big Q (named after Tulsa-based convenience store chain Quik Trip), which will take place at H.A. Chapman Stadium on the University of Tulsa campus.

Bixby, the four-time defending Class 6A-I state champions, is off to another strong start this season as the Spartans are 2-0 and ranked No. 1 in the current High School On SI Oklahoma Top 25. Jenks is 1-1 and ranked No. 7 in the state.

The Spartans have owned this rivalry of late, having beaten the Trojans every year but once since 2018. That one game Jenks did win in that stretch came in 2022, when the Trojans ended Bixby’s state-record 58-game win streak with a 38-35 win, although the Spartans got revenge later that season in the Class 6A-I semifinals.

Last season, Bixby outscored Jenks, 66-35, as the Spartans eventually went on to win their fourth straight 6A-I title.
