| Austin, TX (Sports Network) - After opening up Big 12 play in fine fashion with a 34-24 win over Texas Tech last week, the second-ranked Texas Longhorns play the second of three straight home games, welcoming instate foe Texas-El Paso to Austin this weekend for a non-conference affair. Mack Brown's Longhorns got some revenge against the Red Raiders for a last- second loss in 2008, one that cost them the chance to play for the Big 12 title and perhaps the national championship.

| Austin, TX (Sports Network) - Colt McCoy and the second-ranked Texas Longhorns survived their first Big 12 test, avenging their lone loss of a year ago with a hard-fought 34-24 victory over Texas Tech. McCoy threw for a pedestrian 200 yards and a touchdown on 24-of-34 attempts and was picked off twice. The versatile QB only added four yards on the ground for Texas (3-0, 1-0 Big 12), which had its national championship aspirations dashed last season when its Lone Star State rival won on a last- |

| Austin, TX (Sports Network) - The second-ranked Texas Longhorns open up Big 12 play this weekend, when they welcome Lone Star State rival Texas Tech to Austin for a showdown at Texas Memorial Stadium. Mack Brown's squad got off to a slow start at Wyoming last weekend, but the end result was a lopsided 41-10 victory over the Cowboys. The win was the 15th straight non-conference win for Texas, which opened the 2009 season with a 59-20 win over UL-Monroe. The players change in Lubbock, but the res |

| Austin, TX (Sports Network) - Expectations are at an all-time high in Austin, and the second-ranked Texas Longhorns will try to live up to the hype, as they open their 2009 campaign against the UL-Monroe Warhawks this weekend. The 'Horns enter just about every season with legitimate national title hopes and after falling just short last year, this team could be primed to take that final step.

Both games have to be considered "must-watch television," but the destination is the Lone Star State, where the Oklahoma Sooners and Texas Longhorns duke it out in the Red River Rivalry. Choices abound the weekend of October 24th, with USC seeking revenge against Oregon State, Oklahoma set up for perhaps a "trap" in the form of a a road trip to Lawrence against a tough Kansas team, and t |

| Philadelphia, PA (Sports Network) - My earliest college football memory is of the 1978 Cotton Bowl, as an eight-year old boy watched his favorite team (Notre Dame) and his favorite player at the time (Joe Montana) upset the top- ranked Texas Longhorns for the national title. The following season in the same venue, "Joe Cool," as he would later become, rallied the Irish from a 22-point, fourth-quarter deficit to knock off Houston in one of the greatest college football games of all time.

With Duke leading by three with 11.5 seconds left, Elliot Williams went to the line to try to seal the game, but came up short on both free throw attempts. Henderson somehow grabbed the rebound af |
