Big Ten Teams (0-2)
The Longhorns hold an overall record of 27-13 against the Big Ten conference. Only two teams they have faced from the conference have kept Texas out of the win column.
Northwestern
In 1942 the Northwestern Wildcats and Texas Longhorns faced off in an exhilarating 3-0 game. That was the Wildcats only win in a 1-9 season. The Longhorns finished 9-2 and defeated Georgia Tech in the Cotton Bowl to close out Dana X. Bible’s sixth season. The three points by Northwestern were the first points the Longhorns had given up through three games. They outscored their opponents 104-3 in that stretch.
Minnesota
In 1936 the Minnesota Golden Gophers and Texas Longhorns met on November 14th. That game was held at Memorial Stadium in Minneapolis. The Longhorns fell to the eventual National Champions 47-16. It marked the Gophers’ third-straight National Championship. The two teams were set to play a home and home series starting in 2015 but it was cancelled.
