As I understand it, seating capacity is expected to remain about the same, just people moved around. Total attendance still pegged at just over 100k. https://t.co/6LrfasLTum

As expected, Texas WR Jake Smith (hamstring) is not dressed tonight. He's expected to return for the Texas Tech trip on Sept. 26.

Texas now playing "The Eyes of Texas" over the loudspeaker. Loud singing from the fans that are here. Huge ovation afterward, too.

Longhorns got on the board early with a big score from Josh Moore.
Touchdown Texas. The first play of the season is a dart to Josh Moore, who runs 78 yards for the score. Hello football.

So if Texas scores a 78-yard TD on its first play from scrimmage and only 25,000 people are at DKR, did it really happen? #horns #hookem

That last time that Texas scored on its first offensive snap of the season? 2004 (Cedric Benson). #HookEm https://t.co/FRae0aGFtU

Cade Brewer added to the lead with 20-yard touchdown catch on pass from Sam Ehlinger.
Touchdown Texas. Ehlinger finds his Lake Travis buddy Cade Brewer, who slipped down the seam. That's a 20-yard score. Horns now up 14-0. 9:32 1Q.
— Brian Davis (@BDavisAAS) September 13, 2020
Texas OC Mike Yurcich: 2 drives, 2 TDs.
— Brian Davis (@BDavisAAS) September 13, 2020
TE Cade Brewer figures to have a really big year. Lines up in slot, catches a perfect 20-yard strike for a TD.
— Kirk Bohls (@kbohls) September 13, 2020
Sam Ehlinger had three receivers open on that play. Cade Brewer was the beneficiary of a 20-yard TD toss. #Horns up 14-0 and haven't broken a sweat.

Texas continued rolling in the first quarter.
Touchdown Texas. RoJo punches it in from 1 yard out. Jordan Whittington's 15-yard end-around set it up nicely. Texas now up 21-0. Horns already have 220 total yards.
— Brian Davis (@BDavisAAS) September 13, 2020
Texas averaging 11.6 yards a play, has scored on its first three possessions.
— Kirk Bohls (@kbohls) September 13, 2020
A missed field goal by Cameron Dicker set the Longhorns’ lead to 21-0 going into the second quarter.
End of 1Q: Texas 21, UTEP 0. Horns have 246 yards, Miners 35. Ehlinger is 10-for-14, 193 yards, 2 TDs. All systems go thus far.
— Brian Davis (@BDavisAAS) September 13, 2020
Texas completes as good a first quarter as Tom Herman could want. Three scores (but a missed FG). A total of 246 yards to UTEP's 35. Horn defense has 3 3-and-outs and allowed one first down.
— Kirk Bohls (@kbohls) September 13, 2020
Texas picked up right where it left off in the second quarter.
Touchdown Texas. Oregon/Arizona grad transfer WR Brenden Schooler makes his introduction with two catches on this drive and a 40-yard score. Horns up 28-0.
— Brian Davis (@BDavisAAS) September 13, 2020
Touchdown Texas. Tarik Black, the grad transfer from Michigan, gets in from 5 yards out with a dump-off over the middle. Horns up 35-0. 12:15 2Q.
— Brian Davis (@BDavisAAS) September 13, 2020
With 12:15 left in the second quarter, Sam Ehlinger has 311 passing yards and four touchdown tosses.
The single-game records for Texas are 470 yards (Colt McCoy vs. UCF in 2009), six touchdowns (Colt McCoy vs. Baylor in 2006). #HookEm
— Danny Davis (@aasdanny) September 13, 2020
UTEP's Gavin Baechle misses from 49 yards out. Shutout still intact. Texas up 35-0 with 9:23 left in 1H.
— Brian Davis (@BDavisAAS) September 13, 2020
After some misfires to Brennan Eagles around the goal line, Texas collects a 32-yard FG by Dicker. Horns now up 38-0. 6:16 left in 2Q. I'm guessing we'll see all the backups in 2H.
— Brian Davis (@BDavisAAS) September 13, 2020
UTEP got on the scoreboard just before halftime but Ehlinger got into the record books in the first half.
UTEP is on the board. Baechle hits a 47-yard FG with 1:39 left in 1H. Texas still up 38-3. Those in the desert probably are not worried. An entire 2H still ahead.
— Brian Davis (@BDavisAAS) September 13, 2020
Sam Ehlinger has recorded the seventh 400-yard passing game in UT's history. There is still 1:03 left in the half. #HookEm
— Danny Davis (@aasdanny) September 13, 2020
Longhorns found the end zone one more time before halftime to take a 45-3 lead at the break.
Touchdown Texas. Ehlinger with his 5th TD to… checks notes… walk-on WR Kai Money from Brownsville. Horns up 45-3. QB1 now has 429 passing yards on 24-of-32.
