As Texas prepares to take on Kansas in a game with Big 12 title chances on the line, the Longhorns will be forced to play without senior linebacker Gary Johnson. University of Texas officials confirmed Johnson has been suspended for Friday's game for a violation of team rules.

This is the first instance of Johnson having to serve a suspension since he transferred to Texas from Dodge City Community College ahead of second-year head coach Tom Herman's first season coaching the Longhorns.

Johnson has played in 24 career games with 18 starts during his career at Texas, and holds a team high 74 tackles on the season, including 14 tackles for loss and five sacks.

The Longhorns did receive some positive news on the opposite side of the ball this week after University of Texas officials announced Wednesday that sophomore quarterback Sam Ehlinger, who has been dealing with a lingering shoulder injury, significantly increased his throwing reps during Wednesday's practice and is expected to start Friday's road game against the Jayhawks.

"Sam Ehlinger’s injured right shoulder continues to progress as Texas’ sophomore QB fully participated in practice on Wednesday," UT officials said Wednesday afternoon. "He increased his workload to 40 live throws during UT’s final workout before heading to Lawrence on Thanksgiving Day. Following practice, Tom Herman said he is expecting Ehlinger to play against the Jayhawks on Friday."

Good. Guy doesn’t even know where aleppo is

[Mr KLC]

Just 50 minutes till kickoff in Lawrence, and there's maybe 200 fans in the stadium. Maybe.

[daneblazer]

Kansas is a terrible place to play in November. It's cold, stadium usually empty outside of whatever diehard fans the other team brings. Usually nothing on the line. I don't see how Texas is up for this game.

They are playing for a chance to play in the Big 12 CC game and to give Tom Herman more B.S. to talk about, like how the goal is always to win the conference. Sure. A 3 loss conference winner is the goal.

[Mr KLC]

17 minutes before game time. A Kansas basketball game could potentially have more fans than the football team brings out today.

[daneblazer]

One of the first things I’m doing if im les miles is changing the uniforms. They suck

thought they already clinched. Guess I’m wrong

Well the fix is in for Texas. Just saw the latest late hit I’ve ever seen and two refs within 5 yards of it just look on Idly

Kansas Kentucky Duke North Carolina are basketball schools. Their football teams are fielded due to NCAA rules and they are traditionally non competitive.

if ur not looking down ud never know he was out

[flakeandbake]

if ur not looking down ud never know he was out

Yea you would because he slows up. Plus, why would a referee ever not be looking down at his feet?

[flakeandbake]

3rd & 32 for Kansas. This keeps getting better and better

[maggiethebestdog]

if ur not looking down ud never know he was out

So you can take a guys legs out late and out of bounds because you weren't looking???

Are you saying the official wasn't looking???

Another gem from jtoler

was referring to the tackler

[Mr KLC]

Think about this Texas fans. That was Ehlinger's first interception since Maryland. His streak was a Big 12 and Texas record.

[Mr KLC]

Kansas has more interceptions than Alabama this year.

[jtoler]

lol klc must be a texas fan nobody expects kansas to win this win means nothing for texas. would be nice to see jayhawks pull one out though good momentum for les miles

[flakeandbake]

Texas secures a spot in the Big 12 Championship game

and the playoffs? getting to and winning big 12 means nothing for texas just like if wv got there and won. its playoffs or nothing matters

[flakeandbake]

Well Texas isn't making the playoffs and never was so I don't see the angle there. They do want to win this game and then the Big 12 Championship, which would lead to a better bowl game and bring in more $ for the program. Would also help bring in better players. So once again confused

[jtoler]

they would be in the hunt had they not lost to wv which was by a point or okie st. which was by 3 pts. they are just taking up space at this point I hope they lose today so they cant make big 12 championship they and wv are just potentially messing up oklahoma from being in who dont matter either because they dont have a defense. pulling for rock chalk big today

[flakeandbake]

Oklahoma is not getting in lets be serious. Idc what mathematically odds they have of getting in. It might as well be 0%

[maggiethebestdog]

Wow
You can always count on jtoler for posts that are devoid of any logic, but he is out doing himself in this thread

Hilarious

[jtoler]

if they win big 12 championship and ohio st. beats mich. then they are in no? also who knows what will happen with nd vs. pitt.

[jtoler]

one more thing dont know their rules but with texas winning today how do they secure a spot in championship game, there are no divisions and wv has won the h2h against them.

[flakeandbake]

Friday's winner will play Texas next week at AT&T Stadium in Arlington, Texas, if the Longhorns can get past Kansas on Friday. If not, Oklahoma and West Virginia could meet again a week later for the title. (ESPN)

[flakeandbake]

Jtoler - when I think of the playoffs. I think of real teams who are going to the playoffs. Teams I scouted out throughout the year. Just look at the futures every now and then and it becomes pretty clear Oklahoma is scratch off. I'm not going to waste time getting a hard on thinking of what if Oklahoma makes the playoffs.

[flakeandbake]

Just realized this thread is about to inspire a crispy G bone on WVU +2.5 today. Just to seal off Oklahoma

[flakeandbake]

Lol
Unreal

Why don't you chip in with some logic Maggie. You usually tend to just blab bullshit and not touch on any sports what soever. Do you even watch sports? Why are you here?

So instead of me laughing at someone who is arguing that 2+2=7, you want me to write an informative and compassionate post about how it really =4???

You are almost as dumb as he is
So did you go 9-1 again yesterday??
