Good morning, Tulsa.

No Kings protests took place across Oklahoma on October 18th as organizers rallied against federal enforcement tactics and cuts to health care.

In Tulsa, the demonstration ran (12:00 p.m. to 2:00 p.m.) while local agencies kept a visible presence to monitor the event.

Tulsa Oktoberfest volunteer leader Ric Kotarsky has built a tight-knit 300-tap beverage team into a family over 25 years—growing the festival from five to 13 beer tents and funding community projects through the River Parks Authority.

He started as a volunteer in 2000 and his work has helped bring German culture to life in Tulsa.

Bixby Rep. Chris Banning will draft a bill to protect students' rights to wear patriotic clothing after reports that some were told to change shirts with conservative messages.

The school district said its dress code aims to prevent disruptions and admitted two incidents were mishandled—Banning's proposal seeks to uphold First Amendment rights in schools.

Protesters gathered at 21st and Boulder in downtown Tulsa despite rainy weather to protest against what they say is a government leaning toward authoritarianism.

The demonstration, organized by Indivisible Tulsa County, followed a similar protest a few hours earlier near Memorial.

The Tulsa Oilers lost their season opener 2-1 at Iowa, with Josh Nelson scoring early and Nolan Orzeck and Keltie Jeri-Leon changing the score.

Coach Rob Murray, who reached his 999th ECHL game on Friday night, will mark his 1,000th game today — a rematch against Iowa at 3 p.m.

OSU lost 49–17 to Cincinnati Saturday, October 18th as running back Rodney Fields Jr. rushed for 190 yards but key mistakes like a pick-six hurt the team’s drive — Coach Meacham praised the offensive line’s effort and said the team will regroup with five games remaining.

The Oklahoma Sooners bounced back after a Red River loss with a 26—7 win over South Carolina as their strong defense recorded six sacks, 13 tackles for loss, and a safety.

Quarterback John Mateer led early drives with a key touchdown pass to Tory Blaylock while coach Brent Venables praised his leadership after the game.

Oklahoma’s defense was strong through six games, as opponents gained zero or negative yards on 46% of plays and allowed only 5 touchdowns—the fewest since 1987.

The Sooners face South Carolina this week, which is noted for special teams play and heavy penalties.
