kel (2012 & 2011) and five-time Group One victor Canford Cliff

STILLWATER, Okla. -- The struggling Texas defense will be tested again when it faces Oklahoma States explosive offense on the road.The 22nd-ranked Longhorns gave up 47 points in a win over Notre Dame and 50 in a loss to California. Oklahoma State is capable of doing just as much damage. The Cowboys average 39 points and feature one of the nations top pro quarterback prospects in Mason Rudolph.The Texas loss at California left coach Charlie Strong promising to get more involved in the defense, but hes resisted pressure to fire defensive coordinator Vance Bedford.We know weve had our issues on defense, and I have a lot of confidence in Vance Bedford, and I know Vance is going to do a good job, Strong said. We had a lot of time to sit by and just go look at the games that weve played this season and just how much better we could have been. And I said to him, its just three errors.The Longhorns will need to limit errors against the Cowboys. Rudolph entered the week ranked 11th nationally with 1,296 yards passing. The strong-armed junior passed for a school-record 540 yards against Pittsburgh, and he faces a secondary that has allowed nine passing touchdowns in the first three games. The Cowboys also are having some success running the ball with the tandem of Justice Hill and Rennie Childs doing most of the damage.Texas (2-1, 0-0 Big 12) can get a leg up in the conference race with a win and put Oklahoma State (2-2, 0-1) in a bind to start league play. If the Longhorns lose and cant slow Oklahoma States offense, Bedford said he will accept responsibility.I look at myself first, he said. I will never put the blame on a player or system. Look at yourself first and see what you can do to help the players be successful.Here are some things to watch on Saturday:PERKINS SUSPENDED: Senior offensive guard Kent Perkins has been suspended following his arrest last week for allegedly driving while intoxicated. The teams most experienced offensive lineman was arrested last Friday.Perkins apologized to the team.Im really grateful that I didnt cause injury to somebody else, you know, he said. I mean, its crazy what happened, and Im just thankful to God that nothing physically happened to me or anybody else.JAMES WASHINGTON: Oklahoma States speedster caught nine passes for 296 yards and two touchdowns against Pittsburgh two weekends ago and six passes for 89 yards against Baylor last week. Hes a playmaker who can beat defenses down the field or turn a short pass into a long gain.YOUNG GUN: Freshman quarterback Shane Buechele had his first rough game in his first road contest against Cal, getting briefly knocked out of the first half with a rib injury and throwing a key interception that set up a score in the loss. Now he faces a trip to Stillwater and a loud, hostile environment and no Perkins protecting him.AUSSIE RULES FOOTBALL: Texas punter Michael Dicksons fumbled snap and 10-yard punt set up Oklahoma States winning field goal season. The Australian has been nothing short of excellent in 2016. His 50.4-yard average is best in the Big 12.DYNAMIC DUO: Texas running backs DOnta Foreman and Chris Warren III are quite the one-two punch. Foreman has rushed for 288 yards and three touchdowns in just two games. Warren has rushed for 260 yards in three games.---Follow Cliff Brunt on Twitter (at)CliffBruntAP.---AP Sports Writer Jim Vertuno in Austin, Texas, contributed to this report. Zane Gonzalez Jersey .

The Group One mile contest, boosted hugely in value last year, is the highlight of the five-day Qatar Goodwood Festival which runs from Tuesday, July 26 to Saturday, July 30.Galileo Gold (Hugo Palmer) took the first British Classic of the season, the QIPCO 2000 Guineas at Newmarket, with an authoritative display but had to settle for second behind the impressive Awtaad (Kevin Prendergast) in the Irish equivalent at the Curragh on May 21. The Gurkha, one of 11 Qatar Sussex Stakes entries from Irelands champion Flat trainer Aidan OBrien, proved his wide margin maiden success at Navan was no flash in the pan when storming to a five and a half-length victory in the French 2,000 Guineas at Deauville on May 15.OBrien has also engaged QIPCO 1000 Guineas heroine Minding, although the filly looks set to step up in trip after going down by a head to Jet Setting (Adrian Keatley) in the Irish 1,000 Guineas at the Curragh on May 22, the pair clear.US star Tepin extended her unbeaten streak to six in a Grade Two event at Churchill Downs, USA, on May 7 and has already been successful four times at Grade One level. She would have won her last 11 races but for going down by a nose and a head in two of the outings.She is the star of the older generation in the Qatar Sussex Stakes and the five-year-old proved herself on the world stage when impressively beating several European raiders, including runner-up Mondialiste (David OMeara), in the Grade One Breeders Cup Mile at Keeneland, USA, in October.Her trainer Mark Casse said: Tepin is very well. She has a real big breeze coming this Saturday and how she works will tell us but right now we are on schedule to come to Royal Ascot.I believe the travel is arranged for Saturday, June 6. She runs on the Tuesday so that will give her eight or nine days.The Qatar Sussex Stakes at Goodwood is an exciting race and I always like to keep my options open.They asked me about the race and it is definitely something to think about.
