This will be the second straight year the Longhorns will play on the Friday following Thanksgiving after taking on TCU this past season. It will also be the third time the Longhorns and Red Raiders have met around the holiday with the other times coming in 2013 (a Texas win) and 2015 (a Texas loss).

Time and broadcast information for the game will be announced on a later date.
