Texas has had some close calls with Oklahoma State over the years.
It wouldn’t be surprising if we witness another back and forth battle this season. After a heartbreaking loss to Oklahoma last week, Steve Sarkisian’s squad will host No. 12 Oklahoma State on Oct. 16.
The series history dates back to 1916 and the two programs began to play each other annually in 1996. Overall, the Longhorns and Cowboys have faced off 35 times, with Texas winning 26 of those meetings.
Each program has been on the victorious side of an upset within the last five seasons. The most painful one for Texas came in 2018 when they were ranked the No. 6 team in the country.
However, the Longhorns were able to get revenge two years later when they went into Stillwater and upset the No. 6 ranked Cowboys on Oct. 31, 2020.
As we prepare for Texas to host Oklahoma State in Week 7 of the 2021 college football season, let’s take a brief walk down memory lane.
