Texas 59, Kansas 20: Longhorns do what they should, bury winless Jayhawks
Beauty is always in the eye of the beholder. Texas did exactly what it was supposed to do in drumming lowly, still-winless Kansas on Saturday night, 59-20. The 92,529 fans inside Royal-Memorial Stadium walked away happy, as did those in Vegas. One week ago, Texas got shut out against Iowa State. Against Kansas, the Longhorns piled up 598 total yards. Optimists will be happy, but pessimists have a ready-made argument: It was only Kansas, a team that’s now 0-9 and hasn’t won a road game since 2009. “A win’s a win at the end of the day,” defensive lineman Bryce Cottrell said. “It’s better than a loss.” The Longhorns improved to 4-5 overall and still have flickering bowl hopes. Too bad this team can’t stay home the rest of the season. Texas is 0-3 in true road games this year and next comes a journey to West Virginia. “One week, you …

Texas goes deep early and often in win over Kansas
When the directive came down early in the day, Jerrod Heard and John Burt started scheming. Texas, at last, was going deep. Desperate times call for desperate measures, and if you hadn’t noticed, the Longhorns haven’t been moving the ball much of late. So play-caller … Read More

American-Statesman StaffBohls: Just Texas beats just Kansas, but a win is a win
A little Texas win. And a whole lot of healthy perspective. Four-touchdown favorite Texas beat the worst team in the league and maybe the entire land, and yes it beat ’em up pretty good. As the Longhorns should have. And that’s all they did. That said, however, the befuddling Longhorns … Read More

Because the Jayhawks ranked dead last nationally in total defense and second-to-last in pass defense. Because Texas had perfect balance (299 passing yards, 299 rushing … Read More

Texas 59, Kansas 20 final recap
