Texas Hosts Arkansas on ABC Saturday as Odds Back Longhorns

Texas aims to steady its season, with Arkansas' high-output attack posing the central test.

Overview

  • Kickoff is set for 2:30 p.m. CT on Nov. 22 at DKRTexas Memorial Stadium in Austin, with TV coverage on ABC and streaming on ESPN+ and Fubo.
  • BetMGM lists Texas as roughly a 9.5-point favorite with a heavy moneyline edge (about -325 vs. +260), and several models project a clear Longhorns advantage.
  • Arkansas arrives with a losing record under interim coach Bobby Petrino after multiple close defeats to ranked opponents, keeping spoiler potential in play.
  • Dual-threat quarterback Taylen Green headlines a Razorbacks offense averaging about 470 yards and 34 points per game, pairing with RB Mike Washington Jr. to drive a top-tier ground game.
  • The Razorbacks' defense has struggled, allowing roughly 426.5 yards and 32.3 points per game, while Texas coaches are set to expand snaps for younger contributors such as Justus Terry, Kade Phillips and Nick Townsend as the Longhorns seek a needed rebound to preserve slim CFP hopes.
