AUSTIN — The Texas Longhorns are getting fans ready for Saturday’s SEC matchup against the Florida Gators at DKR.

Texas Football released its weekly game hype video on Friday, this time emphasizing the start of November in the college football season.

Take a look:

Texas head coach Steve Sarkisian has said multiple times leading up to the game that “the games in November are the ones you remember,” and it’s clear the social media team wanted to run with that quote.

Sarkisian also provided a preview of the Gators when speaking with the media during Wednesday’s SEC Weekly Teleconference.

“One thing is a they’ve got a good scheme that you can see their players have gained confidence in as the year has gone on,” Sarkisian said. “You know, they’re really physical at the line of scrimmage, and so because of that, I think they can deploy people in the secondary from a coverage perspective and mix coverages and disguise coverages. But on the flip side, they’ll be aggressive at times, and they’ll pressure you and they’ll force the quarterback into some poor decisions.”

Sarkisian added he thinks that both he and Florida head coach Billy Napier are “cut from a similar cloth.”

“I think Billy and I are kind of cut from a similar cloth in that, you know, he believes in running the ball,” Sarkisian said. “And when you run it, and then you can utilize the play action pass and give your offensive line, put them in a little better positioning. They’ve got some pretty good players and big guys up front. But two, I think because of their ability to run the football, it allows them to take some of the pressure off that offensive line.”

No. 5 Texas and Florida will kick off in Austin on Saturday at 11 a.m. CT.

The Texas Land Commissioner announced the Red River Boundary Commission has redrawn the Texas-Oklahoma boundary in order to ensure safe water for more than 2 million Texans.

The redraw will secure and make available approximately 30% of the drinking water supply for the surrounding area.

“As Texas Land Commissioner, it is my honor to work on behalf of all Texans and bring solutions to the table to benefit our great state. This redrawn boundary line will ensure that millions of north Texans’ water comes from a secure source in Texas,” said Commissioner Dawn Buckingham. 

“I am proud of the GLO’s surveying team for playing such a significant role in settling this boundary issue by using their mapping skills and expertise. Surveying has been a vital part of the GLO since the establishment of this agency in 1836.”

In a press release regarding the move, it was explained that the shift was prompted due to a discovery in 2009 of a pump station that was required to stop operation to prohibit further introduction of Zebra mussels in Texas.

The mussels are believed to have negative impacts due to power plants spending millions removing them from clogged water intakes.

It was during this pause in operation that a question arose regarding where the pump station was located. If the pump was in Oklahoma, operating it could violate federal law prohibiting the interstate transport of zebra mussels.

“It was determined that the pump station that provides drinking water to certain parts of north Texas was inadvertently built straddling the state lines of Texas and Oklahoma,” it said. 

“On October 30, 2024, the Red River Boundary Commission, composed of Texas and Oklahoma commissions, executed the Amended and Restated Texoma Area Boundary Agreement to correct the boundary issue and ensure the pump station is located wholly in Texas,” according to the statement.
