AUSTIN — In the SEC home opener for the No. 7 Texas Longhorns, the Florida Gators are on the Forty Acres looking to end a two-game losing streak as head coach Steve Sarkisian’s team tries to bounce back from last week’s stunning 27-24 loss to the Oklahoma Sooners.

Will there be any hangover for the Longhorns, who now have less margin for error in their quest to return to the College Football Playoff? Can the offense find more explosive plays and more consistency in the running game? Can the defense force its first turnover in conference play?

Pregame injury report

Listed as probable on Friday, Texas sophomore offensive lineman Jordan Coleman and sophomore defensive lineman Justus Terry were both removed from the pregame player availability report as Terry prepares to make his return after missing four straight games.

For Florida, the significant news for the offense will be whether quarterback Aaron Philo and wide receivers Vernell Brown III and Bailey Stockton are able to play — all three are listed as game-time decisions, setting up the possibility that quarterback Tramell Jones will make his first collegiate start.

Pregame warmups

Although Philo went through pregame warmups, CBS Sports reported that Jones is going to start against the Longhorns.
