No. 14 Texas vs. UTEP: Game thread

Despite all of the uncertainty that’s accompanied the coronavirus, prompting the Big Ten and Pac-12 to postpone their seasons entirely, the 2020 college football season is officially upon us and the Texas Longhorns are just minutes away from their season-opening meeting with the UTEP Miners.

Texas enters ranked No. 14 in the AP poll, while UTEP arrives in Austin at 1-0, though the win came by way of a underwhelming 24-14 effort over Stephen F. Austin.

The Longhorns are currently 43-point favorites.

Kickoff is set for 7 p.m. CT on Longhorn Network.
