The Texas football program has one of the most crucial regular season games on tap in Big 12 play for Week 11, on Nov. 9 at home in Austin against the upstart Kansas State Wildcats. Coming out of a win over the weekend over the in-state rival Kansas Jayhawks, Kansas State holds the No. 20 ranking in the AP Poll and No. 22 in the Coaches Poll.
Logic would say that the Texas Longhorns football program should easily handle Kansas State at home at Darrell K. Royal-Texas Memorial Stadium next weekend. The Longhorns upended the Oklahoma State Cowboys at home in Austin to open Big 12 play and Kansas State already lost to that same team.
