Texas football understands importance of Michigan game

AUSTIN (KXAN) — The No. 3 Texas Longhorns are set to roll into Ann Arbor, Michigan this weekend as the betting favorite against No. 10 Michigan. A year ago when the Longhorns went on the road in Week 2, they faced No. 3 Alabama and were certainly not the betting favorite.

The Longhorns upset the Crimson Tide in a win that set the tone for a season that ended in the College Football Playoff.

While Texas players will say they treat every game the same, the Longhorns celebrated in a major way after the win against Alabama.
