GAME LOG: Texas Blown Out 14-3 As Longhorns Drop Game Two to Lose the Series

The Longhorns take on the Cowboys in game two on Saturday.

What was billed as a potential pitchers duel to open this series turned out to be an offensive slugfest instead, which saw Texas drop game one 8-6. Now the Longhorns will look to bounce back and take game two to even the series and keep pace in the BIg 12 title race.
