WATCH: Texas Drops Gameday Trailer vs. Wyoming, Teases Light Show
AUSTIN, Texas -- After taking down the Alabama Crimson Tide, the No. 4 Texas Longhorns are looking to build on some major momentum at home Saturday against the Wyoming Cowboys to close out non-conference play.
The Longhorns dropped the gameday trailer for the matchup, and it's one that should have the sold-out crowd pumped. With the contest being a night game, fans will not only avoid the scorching afternoon heat, but will also get a first look at the new burnt orange LED lights that were installed in DKR over the offseason.
The program made sure to make this a selling point in the gameday trailer. Take a look:
“I think it provides energy to the stadium, I think our play provides energy to the fans, I think our fans provide energy to our team, and so creating that home-field advantage, creating that experience here at DKR, I think is something that I appreciate CDC and Drew Martin and all their work that they’ve been putting together to continue to create the environment that this place can have," Texas coach Steve Sarkisian said Thursday.
The new lighting will certainly impact the fan experience while also creating an exciting atmosphere, something that the Longhorns could need against a gritty Wyoming team that marches into Austin with a 2-0 record.
The Cowboys already have a huge win under their belt after taking down the Texas Tech Red Raiders in a thrilling 35-33 double-overtime victory on Sept. 2. They'll be looking for another Big 12 upset against a Longhorns team that now has plenty to lose.
Saturday's game kicks off at 7 p.m. CT.
