November 4, 2020 - Oklahoma State Cowboys Recap Nov 04, 2020

Show notes

The Texas Longhorns managed to do something they haven't done since 2014, go into Stillwater and come out with a win over the Oklahoma State Cowboys. Texas managed to get it done on defense, relying on the defensive line and a career day from Joseph Ossai. Texas created havoc in the backfield, resulting in turnovers and giving Texas a chance to win in spite of some offensive struggles. Connect with the show on Twitter and Facebook.

October 29, 2020 - Oklahoma State Preview Oct 29, 2020

Show notes

The Texas Longhorns are trying to climb out of the middle of the Big 12 and that trek continues on Saturday as they head to Stillwater to take on the No. 6 Oklahoma State Cowboys. The Cowboys, at least so far in 2020, bring one of the top defenses in the conference to the matchup, as Texas still tries to figure out what they're going to do on offense. Defensively, Texas has come up with a few stops, but hasn't really capitalized on all of the opportunities, which they will need to do on Saturday. Connect with the show on Twitter and Facebook.
