On the night of Sep. 18, new head coach Steve Sarkisian and Texas football are set to take on the Rice Owls at home to try and right the ship following a bad loss last weekend. Texas will take on Rice in the final non-conference game of the regular season slate. This is coming off the humbling loss to the Arkansas Razorbacks and head coach Sam Pittman last weekend.
Sark and the Longhorns fell short to Arkansas on the road on Sep. 11 by the final score of 40-21. It was one of the worst non-conference road losses in recent memory for the Longhorns.
