Isaiah Bond and Andrew Mukuba, two key players for the Horns, returned to the field after missing the Vanderbilt game due to injury.

The Texas offense entered Saturday with 11 plays of 40 yards or more on the season ‒ which equates to roughly 1.4 plays a game. The Longhorns (8-1, 4-1 SEC) broke off four such plays against the Gators (4-5, 2-4).
