The Big 12 Conference released the kickoff times for Week Four games and the Texas Longhorns and Oklahoma State Cowboys are set for the 11 a.m. CT slot on ABC/ESPN/ESPN2.
Following a bye week that will allow the ‘Horns to get healthy and attempt to improve upon a defense that has allowed 43 and 50 points this season, Texas will head to Stillwater for its Big 12 opener on October 1.
Considering that the atmosphere at Boone Pickens Stadium for a morning game is quite different than a night game, the early start could end up benefitting Texas.
