Show Notes
Jeff Howe, Bobby Burton and Rod Babers identify realistic in-season fixes for a Texas offense producing three-and-outs at a historically poor rate. The Longhorns must simplify the attack, turn perimeter throws to Ryan Wingo and Jermaine Bishop into an extension of the running game and repeatedly use the bunch, stack and unbalanced formations that have already generated explosive plays. The message for Steve Sarkisian is clear: stop abandoning what works and play the hits.
The crew also examines potential personnel changes involving Derrek Cooper, the offensive line and heavier use of 10 personnel. With Texas unlikely to become an offensive juggernaut overnight, smarter fourth-down decisions and better field position must help the Longhorns lean on their defense. Plus, the guys explain why improved tackling, a larger role for Raheem Biles and replacing Colin Simmons’ production will be critical against Ole Miss.

Jeff Howe, CJ Vogel and Hank South react to Steve Sarkisian’s final comments before Texas faces Ole Miss. Arch Manning remains the Longhorns’ starting quarterback, but K.J. Lacey has prepared for a potential opportunity after receiving significant practice reps. The crew explains what could trigger a change at quarterback and whether more Derrek Cooper, new personnel combinations and a simpler approach can revive the struggling offense.
