On Saturday afternoon the Texas Longhorns will be back on the field as they host the 1-1 Baylor Bears. The Longhorns come in at 2-2 after losing two-straight games to TCU and Oklahoma. This is a huge game for them as they need to get a win and avoid a third-straight loss.
Texas could get a bit of retribution from last season’s 24-10 loss in Waco, the Longhorns have won the last two games at DKR-Texas Memorial Stadium against Baylor. Overall the Longhorns have won four of the last five matchups.
Plenty of storylines heading into this game. How much of an impact will having three weeks off have on Baylor? The head to head matchup of two Austin native quarterbacks. The line on this game opened up at double digits before sliding in favor of Baylor.
