The Longhorn Republic breaks down the Big 12 Championship game

The Texas Longhorns secured their spot in the Big 12 championship game with a win over the Kansas Jayhawks Friday. It wasn’t all good news, as Texas once again surrendered a lead late, and Sam Ehlinger’s streak without an interception came to an end. So why was Kansas such a tough test for the Longhorns (2:57).

With the win, Texas now has to face rival, the Oklahoma Sooners and Dallas Cowboys’ Stadium, marking the first time the teams have played outside of Dallas in more than 100 years. What can Texas do to keep up with the OU offense and come away with a Big 12 title (11:08)?

Texas volleyball won a Big 12 championship (29:43), the Men’s Basketball team is ranked after beating the North Carolina Tarheels (33:14), while the Women’s team is still undefeated (37:08).

We tackle a listener question about Devin Duvernay’s quiet season (39:13) and finally close the show out with Bang the Drum (44:30), where Kyle celebrates Mack Brown’s return to coaching, while Gerald laments the start of award season.
