Texas prepares for upcoming primetime matchup against Ohio State
Summary

The No. 4 Texas Longhorns are preparing for a primetime home game against the No. 1 Ohio State Buckeyes at Darrell K Royal-Texas Memorial Stadium. Texas opened its season with a 56-3 win over Ball State and followed that with a win against Texas State. Head coach Steve Sarkisian significantly altered his defensive staff during the offseason by hiring Will Muschamp to replace Pete Kwiatkowski as the defensive coordinator. Offensively, the team integrated receiver Cam Coleman, who recorded three catches for 70 yards and two touchdowns against Texas State. Both programs currently rank among the top five in all-time college football wins, with Ohio State second and Texas tied for fourth. The matchup remains a notable meeting between two of the most historically successful programs in the country.
