How to Watch Kentucky vs Texas:

Kentucky finally snapped a four-game losing streak last weekend, dominating Murray State 48-6 in a much-needed confidence booster. The Wildcats have leaned on their defense to keep games close, but taking on Texas in Austin is a far cry from handling Murray State in Lexington.

Kentucky will need their best performance of the season to hang with the high-powered Longhorns.

Meanwhile, the Longhorns are sitting pretty at 9-1 and are coming off a 20-10 victory over Arkansas, which marked their third straight win since a tough loss to Georgia on Oct. 19.

Texas has been dominant at home, and with the playoff picture heating up, this game is all about staying focused and avoiding a letdown. QB Quinn Ewers has kept the offense humming, and the defense has stepped up in the last few weeks.
