Coming off a bad loss to the Arkansas Razorbacks and head coach Sam Pittman last weekend, Texas football and new head coach Steve Sarkisian will be looking to rebound in a well-timed matchup with the Rice Owls out of Conference-USA. Texas gets Rice in the final non-conference game of the regular season, at home on the night of Sep. 18.
This game does come at a good time for Sark and the Longhorns given how this team must rebound from a bad loss to Arkansas by a three-possession margin last weekend.
