[LonghornFan4Ever]

Texas won by two touchdowns.

UCLA takes their first loss of the season. LSU has 3 outs to avoid the same fate.

Does anyone know who’s televising game this weekend?

And LSU lost at home to McNeese.  Tuesday night games are weird y'all.

[LonghornFan4Ever]

LSU just lost to McNeese State!

That's a shame.

We were there and Cozart looked pretty good and gave up no runs, but he did not look quite as sharp as his last outing.  Overall, the pitching was good.  Robbins' dinger was basically against the wind to the opposite field and still cleared by a lot.  Tinney's dinger was a monster shot over the green monster in center.  He absolutely crushed it.  Reminded of some of the Melendez homers.  I expected more from UTRGV.

Pack drove this 3 run double to the opposite field.

That blast was a monster.  That film clip says it all when you hear somebody in the background repeating "Oh my God" as it sails way over the green monster.  It was a sight to see.  I was surprised that the center fielder even took a few steps toward the fence.  🤣🤘

It's going to be hard for Jonah to take over for Pack. Pack is killing it.

Does one of them get moved to left?

That’s the plan eventually.

He wont take over for Pack 

[wizardofcroz]

If they win out this weekend, is it safe to assume they'll be ranked #1 next week?

[CJ Vogel]

I will say it’s such a luxury for Texas to have an arm like Cozart in the Tuesday role. 

Allows for situational practices with arms out of the pen without strain on who will see time on weekends

He doesn't need to take over for Pack. Best man plays. If Jonah hits > .300 again and Pack keeps playing like this, then put one in LF or at DH.

Speaking of Left. Ashton Larson had come out of almost every game, we were there last night and I thought I saw him head down the tunnel to the clubhouse after Monsour went in for him. Anyone have any insight on this or was I imagining things? 
 

also, Aiden Robbins is just a flat out ball player.

Larson's fielding is perfect (1.000%, 8 putouts, 0 errors), but substitutions often see him exit for Duplantier, who has a reputation for elite range and arm strength.  Substitutions involving Pack Jr. are less common and not late-inning defensive substitution.  Larson DHing?

Good Q, let me check on that with Larson.

I think they’re going to be streamed on Houston Astros YouTube channel.

One thing that reminds me of last year in this game is strikeouts.  We struck out 11 times in only 6 innings.  Fortunately, that is the only double digit game this year.
