A black spider with a red back and thick fuzzy legs is commonly called a jumping spider. The formal name is Phiddipus audax.
A Widow Spider it can kill u and it can get u to the hospital.
a black widow
If you found a spider that is black, not fuzzy and has a yellow design on its back, his could mean that you found a banana spider. These are common in Oklahoma.
The spider that is black with a white crescent on its back is the Brown House Spider. This spider is often confused with the red-back spider.
This is most likely a "jumping spider" and can be confirmed if it has squat legs, a stocky fuzzy body, somewhat twitchy behavior and, well, jumps. That would be your first clue.
My guess is that this spider you saw was either a Jumping Spider (quite possibly a Daring Jumping Spider) or a Parson Spider.

Likely the Daring (Bold) Jumping Spider
It could be a black widow spider if it is small and thin-legged with a shiny round black abdomen and red markings under it. If it's fuzzy with a red spot on it's back, and the front part of the body is more-or-less the same size as back part, then it's a black jumping spider.

Sounds like a Black House/Window Spider, pretty rare but they are poisonous so stay away. Kill it with a big stick from a distance!

The spider you are referring to is likely the marbled orb-weaver spider (Araneus marmoreus). This spider is known for its bright orange coloration with black spots or diamonds on its back. It is a common sight in many regions, including Texas.
Could be the arrowhead spider.
The American Black Widow should have nothing upon its back but the black color it is. Specfically, the hour glass is on the belly of the spider.
