Star No. 1. – CB Malik Muhammad

What a return to the field it was for Malik Muhammad on Saturday. The two interceptions were clearly the headline, but Muhammad was nails otherwise. Muhammad added another pass breakup and a tackle for loss to his tally on the afternoon. We talk about players taking the jump in their contract year, well, Muhammad is doing exactly that. We saw how the perception of a true CB1 can help the Texas defense a year ago, hopefully it will do the same in 2025 with Muhammad moving forward.

 

Star No. 2 – RB Quintrevion Wisner

Something about playing against the big rivals that turns Wisner into an all-world running back. Baxter is 3-3 as a starting running back eclipsing 100 yards from scrimmage against Oklahoma and Texas A&M in his career, and his effort on Saturday was desperately needed. The Longhorns found a solid bit of rhythm with the outside zone game and Wisner's vision and patience was tremendous. Five receptions for 34 yards as well. 

 

Star No. 3 – PR Ryan Niblett

A moment that will be replayed time and time again in this series moving forward put the exclamation point on this football game for the Texas Longhorns. What a moment for Ryan Niblett, what a moment for Jeff Banks' unit and what a moment for the Longhorns and their fans on Saturday.

 

HM1 Colin Simmons: 2.5 sacks, and a career high number of sacks, Simmons has quietly put together a very solid season through the first half of the year.

HM2 Arch Manning: The box score isn't the prettiest, only 166 pass yards, but Arch was nails on 3rd downs and tremendous throwing under pressure. How about being pressured 25 times and taking just one sack. He is growing up right before our eyes.

Couldn't be more excited to move onto Kentucky week!

Not so fast buddy. Do you not remember Gerry picking the Aggies last year  I still give him hell to this day. You think I am letting you off the hook that easy? 😂
