Texas Vs. Rice Final Score: Longhorns Win 34-9 In Game You Didn’t Watch

I'm going to write up a report on a game I didn't see. Is this unethical? Am I risking my journalistic integrity? Well, the game was on the Longhorn Network. Does that answer your question? In a game literally no one outside of the state of Texas got to watch via legal means, the Texas Longhorns defeated the Rice Owls by a final score of 34-9 at Texas Memorial Stadium on Saturday night. Rice kept it close for the majority of the game, but Texas finally pulled away with 21 unanswered points to finish off the game.

The highlight of the game - at least to me, because I couldn't watch it - was the awesome bit of trolling that the Rice band did at halftime. Otherwise, Garrett Gilbert threw for 239 yards and managed to not throw any interceptions, which is an improvement over last season. Though, the Longhorns' opponent was Rice, so i doubt their fans will be too impressed.

For more on the Longhorns - which will be useful, since there’s no way you watched this game yourself - head over to Burnt Orange Nation.
