This weekend, Texas baseball (28-18, 13-8 Big 12) and head coach David Pierce welcome their first ranked foe in Big 12 play to UFCU Disch-Falk Field for a three-game series against the No. 14 Oklahoma State Cowboys (31-14, 14-7 Big 12). In the final regular season series between Texas and Oklahoma State as Big 12 foes, seeding near the top of the conference standings is on the line.
Entering this weekend's series against Oklahoma State, Texas is two games behind the Oklahoma Sooners for first place in the Big 12. Oklahoma State, meanwhile, is just one game behind the rival Sooners for the top spot in the Big 12 standings.
Pierce and the Longhorns have two more critical home series in Big 12 play before the regular season concludes. Texas will be tested by the two hottest teams in the Big 12 in its last two home series in conference play this regular season.
Starting May 3, Texas faces this Oklahoma State squad that is riding a six-game winning streak. The Pokes are also the highest-ranked Big 12 team in the latest AP Poll.
Next weekend, the Longhorns host the red-hot Kansas Jayhawks, who are riding a Big 12-best seven-game winning streak at the moment.
