However, it wasn't just the offense shining; the defense also made its mark with two fumble recoveries and an interception. Special teams played their part too, successfully converting all field goal and extra point attempts.


The following week brought heartbreak in a narrow defeat to West Virginia Mountaineers with a score of 42-41. Despite this setback, there were positive takeaways from the game as the offense racked up an even more impressive 511 total yards and maintained high efficiency in red zone situations.


In another close encounter against Oklahoma State Cowboys, despite falling short by three points (38-35), Texas demonstrated resilience. The defense recorded three sacks while maintaining discipline to avoid turnovers throughout the game.


Looking ahead to their matchup against Iowa State Cyclones at home, where they have recently shown they can put up big numbers offensively while remaining solid on defense and special teams, fans should expect an exciting contest. The venue itself may play into Texas' hands; historically strong performances at Darrell K Royal-Texas Memorial Stadium could provide that extra edge needed for victory.


The upcoming game is scheduled for November 18th at 1:00 AM UTC (November 17th local time). Fans can catch all of the action live on LHN satellite channel number 677 as these two college football teams battle it out under Austin's lights.
