AUSTIN, Texas – In a rain-soaked brawl, Texas powered its way to a 23-9 win over Kansas State on Saturday. What we learned:
What the win means for Texas: The Longhorns are one step closer to going bowling and have a realistic shot at six wins after a 2-4 start. If they can get past Iowa State and Kansas, the Horns just need to beat West Virginia or Texas Tech to save a season that was crumbling a few weeks ago. Considering how completely dominant K-State was in its 23-0 win over Texas last year in Manhattan, this one had to feel good.
