Texas GameDay, a two-hour pre-game show, and Texas GameDay Final, an hour-long post-game show, will once again supplement LHN's Texas Football telecasts. Further details on both the game telecasts and the pre-and post-game coverage will be announced at a later date.

The game against Tulsa will mark the first-ever meeting between the Longhorns and the Golden Hurricane, while the game against USC will be the seventh all-time between the two storied programs, but the first in Austin since 1966.
