Longhorns Rally Late for 6-5 Win Over Kansas State: Live Game Log

The Longhorns are taking on the Wildcats in their third conference series of the season, kicking things off on Friday night.

The Texas Longhorns (21-9, 4-2) are set to kick off a three-game conference series on Friday night as they welcome the Kansas State Wildcats (19-12, 5-4) for their third conference series this season. 

Texas swept Texas Tech in its first conference series, which saw them wrap up a 14-game stand with a perfect 14-0 record. However, the Longhorns' series against Oklahoma State not only saw their win streak snapped at 16 games but was a series loss.

They bounced back, though, on Tuesday in a relatively easy 7-1 midweek win over AIr Force, a team they've had plenty of experience with in recent memory. 

As for the Wildcats, they've been a team with mixed results so far in conference play. They picked up an impressive sweep over Oklahoma but have series losses to both West Virginia and Baylor. 

Stay tuned as we provide live updates as the Longhorns take on the Wildcats on Friday night from Disch-Falk Field. 

Live updates will be available after first pitch.
