Don't expect top-ranked Texas to move off its "business as usual" mantra just because the stakes increase as it opens Southeastern Conference play against Mississippi State on Saturday afternoon in Austin, Texas.

Yes, the Longhorns (4-0) will be playing their first ever game against an SEC opponent as a member of the consensus toughest conference in country. But Texas is steeled by the fact that it played Alabama in both 2022 and 2023, beating the Crimson Tide in Tuscaloosa last season, and by its consistency the past two years.
