Longhorn Confidential: Do you buy or sell the Kansas Jayhawks and Jalon Daniels?

Texas linebacker Morice Blackwell Jr. pressures Kansas quarterback Jalon Daniels in the Jayhawks' 57-56 overtime win in Austin two years ago. The Big 12 rivals will face off again in Austin on Saturday.

This weekend's showdown between No. 3 Texas and No. 24 Kansas is a marquee matchup, and the American-Statesman has a podcast to break it down.

On this week's Longhorn Confidential, sportswriters Kirk Bohls, Cedric Golden, Danny Davis and Thomas Jones debate whether the Jayhawks should be considered a Big 12 contender and if Jalon Daniels is the best quarterback that Texas will face this season. We also discuss the impact that Jaylan Ford is having on the UT defense this season.

Since both Texas and Kansas are 1-0 in Big 12 play, we look back at how the Longhorns opened up conference play with a 38-6 win over Baylor. Is Texas that good or was Baylor that bad?
