Texas baseball vs. Oklahoma State: How to watch the Longhorns on TV this weekend

Head coach David Pierce and No. 21 ranked Texas baseball will put the nation’s longest winning streak (15 games) to the test this weekend in a tough three-game series on the road against the No. 17 Oklahoma State Cowboys. This series against Oklahoma State will be the first time that Texas has faced a Big 12 foe away from the friendly confines of UFCU Disch-Falk Field in Austin.

Texas comes into this series against the Pokes with a record of 19-7 (3-0 Big 12) following a 5-2 win on the road in College Station over the Texas A&M Aggies on March 28. That three-run win over Texas A&M pushed Texas’ winning streak to 15 games, dating back to March 7.

The first series in Big 12 play for the Longhorns came last weekend when it swept the No. 14 Texas Tech Red Raiders at home at the Disch in three games.

Meanwhile, Oklahoma State comes into this matchup with a record of 20-6 (4-2 Big 12) following a convincing 8-0 loss on the road at the hands of the Dallas Baptist Patriots on March 28. Oklahoma State had won four straight games before the eight-run loss to DBU earlier in the week.

Here’s a look at how to watch No. 21 Texas on the road at O’Brate Stadium in Stillwater this weekend as it takes on No. 17 Oklahoma State in a three-game weekend series.
