Oklahomans ruled the Academy of Country Music Awards

Beginning off was Lady Antebellum’s win for ‘Need You Now’ as Song of the Year and Single Record of the Year.

Oklahomans rocked the show at the 45th annual Academy of Country Music Awards.

Toby Keith, also from Oklahoma, performed ‘Cryin’ for Me,’ dedicating the song to former University of Oklahoma basketball player and jazz musician Wayman Tisdale, who died last May. Keith’s performance is downloadable on iTunes, and all its proceeds will go to Stand Up for Cancer.

The group walked off with a total of three trophies, nabbing the seven-year winning streak of Rascal Flatts as Best Vocal Group.

“We are currently in therapy with Brett Favre trying to figure out how to waffle on this,” Kix Brooks laughingly said after the awards.

Ronnie Dunn, another Oklahoman, and his partner Kix Brooks sang the song, ‘My Maria,’ which was historicallyin the past picked by fans. They grabbed the Duo of the Year for the tenth time now.
