The Longhorn Network is back in the news.
It’s not about conference realignment or disgruntled conference rivals or talk of televising games of Texas recruits, but an honest-to-goodness live event. No. 16 Iowa State at No. 15 Texas is one of just three games this week matching ranked teams with plenty of Big 12 title game implications.
It only took seven years. While the Big Ten Network had the good fortune to have Appalachian State’s monumental upset of Michigan as its first football game, LHN has been locked into Texas home football games with Kansas, Iowa State and group of five teams.
