How to watch Texas Longhorns at LSU: Time, TV channel, streaming
Texas Longhorns face a crucial game at LSU tonight. A win gives Texas a clear path to the College Football Playoff. A loss puts season in jeopardy.
The Texas Longhorns faced a challenging journey to reach their upcoming game against LSU Tigers. After boarding a charter flight in Austin around 2:30 p.m. CT, the flight was delayed due to a computer glitch causing all departures in the United States to be grounded. It wasn't until after 10 p.m. CT that Texas finally took off. However, the Longhorns had more pressing matters at hand – their most important game of the year against LSU, representing a significant win for their playoff hopes.
While Texas boasts a solid College Football Playoff resume with four wins over ranked opponents so far in 2026, the two losses to unranked opponents to Oklahoma and Florida have put them in a precarious position. A loss to LSU could potentially knock Texas out of contention for a CFP spot, leaving their fate in the hands of a team with far less margin for error.
However, if Texas emerges victorious in this high-stakes matchup against LSU, their path to the playoffs would become much clearer, especially after sweeping two bottom-of-the-standings SEC rivals in Arkansas and Texas A&M.
