For a second week in a row, the Texas Longhorns have a top-25 SEC matchup on the road against the Tigers. Last week, they dispatched the then-No. 14 Missouri Tigers, and this week, the now-No. 6 Horns will pay a visit to the No. 21 LSU Tigers in Baton Rouge.

So, as you get ready to see Texas burnt orange on the road (the Tigers insist on wearing white at home), here is everything you need to know about the Longhorns' upcoming game against LSU:

Unsurprisingly, the top-25 SEC matchup is a primetime feature, especially with the allure that a night game at LSU's Death Valley brings.

Texas Longhorns' availability report vs. LSU Tigers

  • OUT: Hollywood Smothers (RB), Trevor Goosby (OL), Nick Townsend (TE), Richard Wesley (EDGE)
  • QUESTIONABLE: Hero Kanu (DL)

Luckily for the Horns, a lot of their star players have returned to full health, including edge rusher Colin Simmons, wide receiver Cam Coleman and Ryan Wingo, and defensive backs Graceson Littleton and Kade Phillips.

However, Texas will still be without key pieces like left tackle Trevor Goosby and running back Hollywood Smothers.

LSU Tigers' availability report vs. Texas Longhorns

  • OUT: Dashawn Spears (S), Phillip Wright III (WR), Charles Ross II (LB), Richard Anderson (DT)
  • QUESTIONABLE: Whit Weeks (LB)
  • PROBABLE: Gabriel Reliford (DE), Weston Davis (OT)

Meanwhile, the Tigers may be nearing a return for their own star linebacker, Whit Weeks, and have minimal players who have provided serious contributions ruled out for the top-25 game.

Announcers for Week 11 matchup between Texas and LSU

  • Play-by-play: Chris Fowler
  • Analyst: Kirk Herbstreit
  • Sideline reporter: Holly Rowe

Finally fulfilling Texas quarterback Arch Manning's request to have ESPN's sideline reporter Holly Rowe in tow for all of the Horns' games, the network's star lineup will be in Baton Rouge on Saturday, with Rowe joined by Chris Fowler and Kirk Herbstreit in the commentator booth.

Texas Longhorns and LSU Tigers series history

  • Overall record: 9-8-1, Texas
  • First-ever meeting: Nov. 16, 1896, LSU won 14-0
  • Most recent meeting: Sept. 7, 2019, LSU won 45-38

Texas's history against the Tigers is one of the more balanced in the Longhorns' history, with the burnt orange and white eking out a minimal series lead over LSU. However, in both the first and most recent meetings, the Tigers walked away victorious.

The most recent matchup between the two legendary programs came in 2019, before the Horns joined the SEC and in the year that saw LSU go on to win its National Championship behind Heisman-winning quarterback Joe Burrow.
