Texas Football: Longhorns social media buzz ahead of kickoff

Gameday is finally upon us with the Baylor Bears and Texas Longhorns set to play at 2:30 CDT. What is the buzz around social media

Gameday is finally upon us with the Baylor Bears visiting the Texas Longhorns. Both teams coming in off a bye, and both coming in off losses in overtime. This isn’t exactly a must win game for Baylor but you can make the argument for it.

For Texas it definitely has the feel of a must win game. While Baylor is in the first year of the Dave Aranda era, the Longhorns are halfway through year four of the Tom Herman Era. Fans are growing restless as it seems the same issues popping up week after week, year after year.

Hopefully a change in uniform can start this team trending in the right direction. The Longhorns will wear white jerseys at home for the first time since 1950. If that is what it  takes for the home team to kickstart a run then so be it.

As Deion Sanders once said “look good, feel good, play good.” You can’t deny that these throwbacks look really good. It is definitely one jersey combination that should be a regular in the rotation, especially if they win wearing them.

Sports superstitions and such, it means a lot to some. Let’s see how it all goes down for the Longhorns on Saturday.
