The Longhorns can still reach the Big 12 title game. But they need a victory and some...

Texas running back Bijan Robinson reacts after scoring against Kansas during the first half of an NCAA college football game on Saturday, Nov. 19, 2022, in Lawrence, Kan. AUSTIN - All Texas can do this week to help its cause is win and wait. And if the Longhorns do manage to end their regular season with a football victory over Baylor, that waiting game could be excruciating.

“I'm a realist with our guys. I'm honest with them,” Texas coach Steve Sarkisian said Monday. “They know the scenario. I painted this scenario for ’em last night. We got to win Friday, then we can worry about what happens Saturday night. But if we don't take care of our business, if we don't mow our own lawn, then it doesn't matter what happens Saturday night. So I think the focus and the intent is take care of our own business first.

“It’s going to be a heck of a ballgame against a very good Baylor team, one that’s a lot like us,” Sarkisian said. “They’re probably looking at a few of their games thinking, ‘Man, a play here, a play, there, and ultimately maybe things are going a little differently for them in this last weekend.’”The consensus belief is that Texas running back Bijan Robinson won’t return for his senior season.

“I always try to put those kinds of talks off until after ,” Sarkisian said. “I think that creates clutter in these guys. I know he wants to come in here Friday and play well, wire into the game plan. When that time comes and the regular season dies down, we’ll have those discussions. Not just with him, but with his family. We’ll get the necessary information in place so he can make a really good decision.
