**Longhorns Look to Tune Up Offense Against Sam Houston Before SEC Play**
**AUSTIN, TX** – The Texas Longhorns will host the Sam Houston Bearkats on Saturday, September 20th, at Darrell K. Royal-Texas Memorial Stadium in their last nonconference game of the 2025 season. Kickoff is scheduled for 8 p.m. ET.
After a shaky start to the season, particularly from quarterback Arch Manning, the Longhorns are hoping to find their offensive rhythm before entering SEC play against Florida. Manning struggled in last week’s 27-10 victory over UTEP, completing just 11 of 25 passes for 114 yards, with one touchdown and one interception.
Texas should be heavily favored against Sam Houston, who currently sit at 0-3 with significant losses to Hawaii, UNLV, and Western Kentucky. The Bearkats have struggled on both sides of the ball.
Fans looking to watch the game will need a subscription to ESPN+ or SEC Network+, as it will not be broadcast on traditional television.
