How to watch No. 17 Texas vs. Arkansas: Game time, TV, streaming, and more

The No. 17 Texas Longhorns need a win on Saturday against the Arkansas Razorbacks for a multitude of reasons.

The hopes for the College Football Playoff hang on by a thread, with an opportunity to keep that thread intact with a win over one of its oldest rivals — a team riding an eight-game losing streak heading into Darrell K Royal-Texas Memorial Stadium. Some of those losses could have easily gone the other way; six of eight decided by one score, including a one-point loss against LSU a week ago.

The Razorback’ bring one of the nation’s most potent offenses, led by the dynamic playmaker Taylen Green at quarterback. The problem is that offense is shackled to one of the nation’s worst defenses, giving up 32 points per game.

With the recent defensive struggles for the Longhorns, this could very well turn into a shootout, with both quarterbacks putting up monster numbers. Will Texas have what it takes to get the win over the Hogs in Austin?
