Texas’ all-time record against the four new Big 12 schools

How Texas has fared against the new members of the Big 12.

Big 12 expansion is coming sooner rather than later.

The conference announced on Friday the new members would be officially joining the Big 12 for the 2023-24 athletic season. Meaning BYU, Cincinnati, Houston and UCF will likely face off against Texas and Oklahoma at least once before they make the move to the SEC.

This puts the league at 14 teams until the Longhorns and Sooners leave which will force a change in the normal round-robin schedule the Big 12 has traditionally used.

Texas will get an opportunity to square off against Houston, an old in-state rival, along with playing a BYU team who historically has Texas’ number. The Longhorns have never played Cincinnati and have only seen the UCF Knights twice all time.

Here is a look at Texas’ all-time record and last meeting against each of the four new programs joining the Big 12. The Longhorns are 19-11 combined against the fresh faces of the new Big 12.

Texas Baseball: Longhorns Lose Game 4, Win Series 3-1

The Texas Longhorns end series vs. BYU, losing game four. Winning the series 3-1.

The Texas Longhorns (3-4) followed their one-sided win against BYU yesterday in game three with a disappointing loss in game four. The BYU Cougars (3-5) finished the series with their only win by a final score of 5-4.

The Longhorns started out strong, going five innings with a shutout lead and up by four runs. However, an active five-run sixth inning for BYU turned out to be too much for the Longhorns to overcome.

Despite solid performances from Douglas Hodo III, who started off the game with a one-run home run in the third, and Cam Williams with a two-run home run in the fifth, it wasn’t enough to overcome a disastrous sixth inning.

BYU knocked in five runs on five hits with two men left on base before the side was retired.

From that point, no more hits were allowed by either team and the strenuous sixth inning is what kept the Longhorns from a series sweep, giving Texas their fourth loss of the season.

The team returns to the diamond on Tuesday with a one-game series against Texas A&M – Corpus Christi. The first pitch is scheduled for 6:30 p.m. CST and will be televised on the Longhorn Network.
