Follow the full play-by-play and box score →The SEC has set Texas’ regular-season home finale against Arkansas for 2:30 p.m. CT on Nov. 21 at Darrell K Royal-Texas Memorial Stadium. ESPN will televise the game.
It will be the Longhorns’ final scheduled home game of the regular season. The source reports that Texas could return to DKR in December if it wins out, finishes 10-2 and earns a home College Football Playoff game.
No. 7 Texas enters its next game at 7-2 after three consecutive victories. That streak followed back-to-back losses to Oklahoma and Florida, and two of the Longhorns’ past three wins came against ranked opponents.
Before turning its attention to Arkansas, Texas will visit No. 24 LSU at 6:30 p.m. CT on Saturday at Tiger Stadium. ABC will carry the game, with Chris Fowler, Kirk Herbstreit and Holly Rowe assigned to the broadcast.
Steve Sarkisian said Monday that Texas has strong energy, spirit and connection. Those qualities cannot replace preparation, he stressed. He also said LSU could have the most talented defense and overall roster Texas has faced this season.
LSU is 6-3 overall and 3-3 in SEC play, with quarterback Sam Leavitt leading an offense coached by Lane Kiffin. Texas will face another ranked opponent in Baton Rouge before returning home to meet an Arkansas team that is 1-5 in conference play.
The Arkansas announcement settles the time and television details for the home finale, but Texas’ immediate stakes remain on the road. The Longhorns are trying to extend their winning streak and preserve the 10-2 finish described in the source as their path toward hosting a playoff game.
Why it matters
Texas is seeking a fourth straight victory and a possible 10-2 finish after consecutive losses to Oklahoma and Florida. Winning out could put the Longhorns in position to host a College Football Playoff game at DKR in December.
What to watch next
No. 7 Texas visits No. 24 LSU at 6:30 p.m. CT on Saturday on ABC before returning home to face Arkansas.
