Boys and girls, the No. 3 Texas Longhorns have played five games, and in each one they have come out on the winning end. Saturday’s matchup against the No. 24 Kansas Jayhawks at home was a game that was circled on the calendar and not just because it was a potential trap game the week before the Cotton Bowl, but because this Kansas team would provide a true litmus test for this Texas team for conference play.
Now to be fair, there was a big curveball right before kickoff when it was reported that Kansas starting quarterback Jalon Daniels would not suit up due to him re-aggravating a back injury.
