Longhorn Network to Televise 2018 Texas Football Home Opener against Tulsa

Longhorn Network, the 24-hour network devoted to the University of Texas, will televise two Texas football home games during the 2018 season. The two-game slate includes their matchup against Tulsa on Saturday, Sept. 8, at 7 p.m. CT, kicking off the Longhorns’ 2018 home campaign. LHN will also televise an additional game this season with further details to come.

Since its launch in 2011, LHN has televised 16 Texas football games, with the Longhorns’ games against Tulsa and a to-be-determined opponent serving as the 17th and 18th, respectively. 2018 marks the eighth year that LHN has exclusively televised select Texas football games.

Texas GameDay, a two-hour pre-game show, and Texas GameDay Final, an hour-long post-game show, will once again supplement Longhorn Network’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.
