UT Longhorns - Wyoming on Versus

Texas' matchup with Wyoming will be televised, as long as you don't have DirecTV.

That's because the Longhorns' 2:30 p.m. game against the Cowboys will air on Versus. The network has been feuding with DirecTV and currently is not offered by the company. DirecTV has dropped the Versus network from it's satellite lineup because of a pricing dispute, which is a big deal being that Versus has exclusive television rights to the game.

The two companies are trying to reach an agreement and have just 2 days to do so. We'll keep you updated throughout the week on whether or not the two sides can reach a truce.
