Here are five things Texas fans need to know about Tulsa ahead of the Longhorns' home opener on Saturday:
1. Tulsa's offense nothing new to Longhorns
Remember the name Sterlin Gilbert? The former Texas offensive coordinator was with the Longhorns for just one season in 2016 -- former head coach Charlie Strong's last in Austin. Gilbert is now in the same role at South Florida under Strong.
But before Gilbert came to Texas, he served as Tulsa's offensive coordinator for one year under current head coach Philip Montgomery. Gilbert's up-tempo, spread attack helped revitalize the Longhorns' offense in 2016.
