Texas Football Schedule Printable PDF
Every Longhorns game of the 2026 season on three clean pages you can pin to a wall, stick on a fridge or drop into a group chat. Dates, venues, kickoff windows and TV channels, laid out so they stay readable when printed.
No sign-up, no email, no watermark. Just the schedule.
What's Inside the Download
The file splits the season by month, one page each. September covers the three home games and the road trip to Knoxville. October holds the Red River Rivalry and the three-week home stand. November carries the closing run through Missouri, LSU, Arkansas and the finale at Kyle Field.
Each entry gives you the date and day, whether Texas is home or away, the opponent, the venue and city, the kickoff time or window, and the television channel where one has been assigned. A header on every page repeats the season totals — 12 games, seven at home, five away — so a single printed sheet still makes sense on its own.
It is deliberately plain. No background images, no heavy colour fills, nothing that turns a home printer into a smudged mess. That was the point.
The Full 2026 Schedule
Here is everything in the file, in case you would rather read it on screen than print it. Texas has a single bye week on October 3, sitting between the Tennessee road game and the Red River Rivalry.

How to Read the Kickoff Windows
Five games on this schedule have a fixed time. The other seven carry a window instead, and that catches people out every year. A window is not a mistake or missing data — it is the conference deliberately keeping options open so its broadcast partners can pick the best games closer to the date.
For most conference fixtures the final time and channel land about six days ahead of kickoff. If you are buying flights or booking hotels around an away game, that is the practical difference between a fixed time and a flex window.
Fixed time (e.g. 2:30 p.m. CT)
Locked in and unlikely to move. These are the games networks committed to early, usually because the matchup sells itself.
Early start: 11 a.m.–12 p.m. CT
A late-morning kickoff. The exact minute is unconfirmed but the game will not move to the evening.
Afternoon start: 2:30–3:30 p.m. CT
The traditional mid-afternoon window. Expect 2:30 or 3:30 depending on which game the network builds its day around.
Night start: 5–7 p.m. CT
An evening kickoff, most often 6:30 or 7:00. Good news if you are travelling and want a full day on campus first.
Flex: afternoon or night
Completely open. The conference holds these back so networks can promote whichever game matters most that week. Do not book flights around them.
Dates Worth Circling
September 12 — Ohio State in Austin. The biggest non-conference game on the national calendar, in primetime on ABC, with a Texas side that has lost three straight to the Buckeyes. If you print one page, print this one.
September 26 — at Tennessee. The SEC opener and the first road trip, at 11 a.m. local in a stadium Texas has never visited despite a series that started in 1951.
October 10 — Red River Rivalry. Oklahoma at the Cotton Bowl during the State Fair, with the stadium split down the middle. Texas comes into it off the only bye of the season.
November 27 — at Texas A&M. A Friday night finale at Kyle Field on ABC, the day after Thanksgiving. The Aggies have not won this fixture since 2010.
Printing Tips
The layout is built for US Letter and works on A4 with slightly larger margins. If the edges clip on A4, set scaling to "Fit to page" rather than "Actual size" and it will behave.
Greyscale is fine. The design leans on dark text against a light background rather than colour fills, so a black-and-white print stays perfectly readable and uses a fraction of the ink. If you want a single sheet for a desk or fridge, print page two — October holds the Red River Rivalry and the three-game home stand, which is the busiest month for most people planning trips.
For a wall poster, printing at 120 percent on Letter gives you larger type without losing the margins. Most home printers handle that without complaint.
Why the Times Keep Moving
Under the nine-game SEC format, the conference sells a package of games to its broadcast partners rather than fixing every kickoff in advance. Networks then select which games get the marquee windows week by week, based on records, rankings and whatever storyline has developed. A team that starts 5-0 gets moved into primetime; a team that stumbles gets pushed to a streaming-only slot.
That is why a Texas football schedule printable PDF published in August cannot list every channel. It is not incomplete — the information genuinely does not exist yet. What it can do is lock in the dates, venues and windows, which is the part you actually need for planning.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is the printable PDF free?+
Yes. It downloads directly with no sign-up, email capture or payment. Three pages, one per month of the season.
How many pages is it?+
Three. September on page one, October on page two, November on page three, each with a header showing the 12-game total and the home and away split.
What paper size does it print on?+
It is laid out for standard US Letter and prints cleanly on A4 as well, with slightly wider margins. Choose 'Fit to page' in your print dialogue if the edges clip.
Can I print just one month?+
Yes. Each month sits on its own page, so use the page range option in your print dialogue — page 1 for September, page 2 for October, page 3 for November.
Does it print well in black and white?+
It does. The layout uses dark text on a light background with only accent colours, so a greyscale print stays legible and saves ink.
Why do some games not have a TV channel?+
The SEC and its broadcast partners assign networks about six days before kickoff for most conference games. Only the fixtures locked in early — Texas State, Ohio State, UTSA and Texas A&M — have confirmed channels this far out.
What does 'flex start' mean?+
The conference has not committed to an afternoon or evening window yet, so the network can choose closer to the date based on how the season is going. Ole Miss on October 24 and LSU on November 14 are both flex.
Is the bye week shown?+
The PDF lists the 12 scheduled games rather than the open date. Texas has a single bye on October 3, between the Tennessee road trip and the Red River Rivalry.
Why is the Texas A&M game on a Friday?+
The SEC places rivalry week at the end of the regular season, and putting the Lone Star Showdown on the Friday after Thanksgiving gives it a standalone national window instead of competing with the Saturday slate.
Will the PDF be updated?+
Yes. As kickoff times and networks are confirmed through the season, the file is refreshed and the download link stays the same, so bookmark this page rather than the file itself.
How many home games are there?+
Seven at DKR-Texas Memorial Stadium, five on the road. The Oklahoma game at the Cotton Bowl is a neutral-site fixture counted among the away games.
