Episode Details

Texas is number one in the country after one of the most improbable wins in college football history against Ohio State and now they have to turn around and play UTSA from right down the road on I-35. Nick Shuley, Rod Babers, and Jeremy Hills break down the very real danger of the big win hangover, why Coach Flood's advice to Connor Robertson might be the most important thing said all week, and what Texas actually has to do to stay focused and sharp heading into a game that could not be more different than what they just experienced. They also break down the UTSA offense and defense, why Jeff Trailer is a legitimately elite football coach that deserves more respect, and why a team sitting at 11 penalties a game might still give Texas some problems if they are not careful. Plus the alumni segment, special teams preview, and score predictions from the full crew.
