STAFF REPORT
WACO, Texas | Even the best books and movies come to an end. So will the rivalry between Texas and Baylor on Saturday. They meet for the last time as Big 12 competitors, as the Longhorns ready entry into the Southeastern Conference (SEC) next year.
The Horns, at 3-0, are ranked #3 in the country.
Baylor is 1-2, having lost a shocker to Texas State and a close one to Utah before whipping a lousy Long Island U. (who?) squad last weekend.
Texas has beaten Rice, Alabama and Wyoming.
Saturday will mark the 113th and final meeting between the two rivals. The Bears have only played against TCU more times in program history.
Texas leads the all-time series 80-28-4, but the Longhorns haven’t won in Waco since 2017.
McLane Stadium (off I-35) is going to be a madhouse. The game is sold out, and Baylor Athletics announced Wednesday that it had distributed more student tickets for the Texas game than any other game in the nine-year life of the venue.
The game is set to begin at 6:30 PM.
You can watch live at the stadium or on ESPN...
