The Longhorns are coming off a wild and emotional 99-98 upset of No. 16 TCU in double overtime. The upset came just over 24 hours after it was announced that star sophomore Andrew Jones was diagnosed with leukemia.

Meanwhile, the Cowboys are coming off what head coach Mike Boynton called a “gutless” performance by his squad. Oklahoma State fell on the road 86-82 to the Kansas State Wildcats.

Boynton will try and rally his troops today against the Longhorns. For a more in-depth preview and look at the Longhorns, check out the preview.
