Schedule

edit

The 2024 season's out-of-conference opponents represent the AAC, Big Ten, Mountain West and the Sun Belt. The Longhorns will host three of their four non-conference games which are against Colorado State from the Mountain West, Louisiana–Monroe from the Sun Belt, and UTSA from the AAC. The Longhorns will travel to Michigan.[79] Texas' season opener against Colorado State  the second meeting between the two teams  was agreed upon in 2019, with Colorado State to receive a $1.8 million payout as part of the contract for the matchup.[80] The game at Michigan is part of a home-and-home series initially announced in 2014, though in 2023 the programs agreed to switch the order of locations such that the match would be played at Michigan Stadium in 2024 and Darrell K Royal–Texas Memorial Stadium in 2027.[81] In 2019, Texas scheduled home-only games against UTSA and UTEP for 2024–2031, to be played in alternating years.[82] Texas's final regular season non-conference game for 2024, against Louisiana–Monroe, will be the first of two home games for Texas; their second game is scheduled for 2029.[83] A home-and-home series formerly scheduled with South Florida for 2020 and 2024 was canceled following additions to Texas's 2024 non-conference slate.[82]

Texas' 2024 schedule consists of seven home games and four away games, along with one neutral site game for the regular season. Texas and the SEC announced the conference's 2024 football schedule on December 13, 2023. Texas will host four SEC conference opponents Florida, Georgia, Kentucky and Mississippi State at home and will travel to four SEC opponents, Arkansas (rivalry), Texas A&M (rivalry) and Vanderbilt to close out the SEC regular season on the road. The Longhorns will face Oklahoma in Dallas at the Cotton Bowl. The team will have bye weeks in week 6 and 10 (October 5 and November 2, respectively).[79]
