AUSTIN -- The Texas Longhorns are back at DKR to host the Florida Gators for their fifth conference game of the season.

Though the Horns seemed to have bounced back from the loss against Georgia in the away matchup against Vanderbilt, there was still lots head coach Steve Sarkisian had to work on with his team.

On good news for the Horns, safety Andrew Mukuba and wide receiver Isaiah Bond were removed from the final injury report, and defensive lineman Vernon Broughton is only out for the first half.

Florida hasn't had a great season and goes into today's game with a 4-4 record, nonetheless, Sarkisian recognizes some threats the Gators might pose, including its defensive coverage.

"You know, they're really physical at the line of scrimmage, and so because of that, I think they can deploy people in the secondary from a coverage perspective and mix coverages and disguise coverages," Sarkisian told the media on Wednesday. "But on the flip side, they'll be aggressive at times, and they'll pressure you and they'll force the quarterback into some poor decisions."

Lagway seems to be warming up at DKR, and could take on the field in half an hour.
