For the first time since 2009, the No. 20 Texas Longhorns will meet an old Big 12 foe, the Colorado Buffaloes. This time around, the two will share the field at the Alamodome in San Antonio with the winner set to enter the offseason as Alamo Bowl champions.
The Burnt Orange Nation staff got together to discuss what a shorthanded Longhorns squad will need to do to be the one celebrating on Tuesday night and more.
Several Texas’ starters have elected to opt out and enter the draft, including Jack linebacker Joseph Ossai, safeties Caden Sterns and Chris Brown, and receiver Brennan Eagles.
