Texas’ season is hanging in the balance of this weekend’s trip to Waco.
The window of oppurtunity for making it to the Big 12 Championship for Texas is getting smaller and smaller, but there is still a slight opening. The Longhorns realistically have to win out, and hope that Oklahoma and Oklahoma State drop a game or two in order to punch their ticket to Jerry World.
Baylor also badly needs this win, as they still have yet to play Oklahoma. The Big 12 has five teams vying for two spots, and for Texas losing another conference game will not play well for their chances.
There are many great games this week with all kinds of implications, whether it be for the College Football Playoff, or to see who will reign supreme in a respective conference. 247Sports compiled a list of the top-10 games this weekend that they viewed as the most interesting, and the Longhorns matchup against Baylor graced the list.

Texas and Baylor came in at No. 10 on what looks to be one of the most loaded slates this season. Steve Sarkisian and the Longhorns badly need to gain some momentum, and beating the No. 16 ranked Baylor Bears would do just that.
