09/10/24 - Quinn Ewers, rJr/2025, Texas + More +   WEEK 2 SEC OFFENSIVE PLAYER OF THE WEEK: Quinn Ewers, QB, Jr.,...Ewers delivered an impressive performance in Texas' 31-12 road win over No. 10/9 Michigan, completing 24-of-36 passes for 246 yards and three touchdowns. This victory marked Texas' second consecutive top-10 road win, following their triumph over No. 3 Alabama last season. Ewers has now won eight straight true road games since 2022, throwing 15 touchdowns with just one interception. Notably, three of these wins were against top-15 opponents, where he completed 63% of his passes for 792 yards and eight touchdowns with no interceptions. Against Michigan, Ewers guided the Longhorns to scoring on all five first-half possessions—three touchdowns and a field goal—with the only miss being a field goal attempt after a penalty nullified a touchdown. He led Texas to 8-of-10 third-down conversions in the first half, going 6-of-7 passing with a touchdown and rushing for another on a 3rd-and-7. Ewers has thrown at least one touchdown pass in each of his last 15 starts, dating back to 2022. The win snapped Michigan's notable win streaks, including 16 overall victories, a Big Ten-record 29 regular-season wins, and 23 home wins. Texas' 19-point win was its largest margin of victory against a top-10 team on the road since 1979 and the biggest against a top-10 team overall since 2005. - SEC Football rJr/2025 QB Quinn Ewers, Texas News Source: SEC Football Share/Comment: Here

09/10/24 - Jake Majors, rSr/2025, Texas + More +   WEEK 2 SEC CO-OFFENSIVE LINEMAN OF THE WEEK: Jake Majors C, Sr.,...Majors was Texas' highest-graded offensive lineman in their 31-12 road victory over No. 10/9 Michigan, which was the Longhorns' second top-10 road win in as many seasons after defeating No. 3 Alabama the previous year. Majors faced two of the best defensive tackles in college football, All-American Mason Graham and All-Big 12 honoree Kenneth Grant, and did not allow a sack, while the pair managed only four tackles and no quarterback pressures. Majors was instrumental in Texas rushing for 143 yards (4.5 yards per carry) against a Michigan defense that ranked fifth nationally in rush defense last season, allowing only 90.0 yards per game. Under his leadership, the Texas offense accumulated 389 total yards and 31 points. The victory snapped several Michigan win streaks, including 16 overall victories, a Big Ten-record 29 regular-season wins, and 23 home wins. Texas' 19-point win was its largest road margin against a top-10 team since 1979 and the biggest against any top-10 team overall since 2005. - SEC Football rSr/2025 C Jake Majors, Texas News Source: SEC Football Share/Comment: Here

09/03/24 - Cameron Williams, Jr/2025, Texas + More +   WEEK 1 SEC CO-OFFENSIVE LINEMAN OF THE WEEK: Cameron Williams, OL, Jr.,...Graded the highest of Texas' offensive linemen and allowed no sacks and no quarterback pressures from his right tackle position against Colorado State in a 52-0 win. Williams and the offensive line paved the way for 545 total yards, including 190 rushing and 355 passing. Quarterback Quinn Ewers threw three touchdown passes behind the line's play, while three players rushed for a touchdown, including freshmen Jerrick Gibson and Arch Manning. In all, five players scored their first touchdowns as Longhorns with the support of the offensive line, when also adding in transfer wide receivers Matthew Golden, Isaiah Bond, and Silas Bolden. - SEC Football Jr/2025 OT Cameron Williams, Texas News Source: SEC Football Share/Comment: Here

08/31/24 - Arch Manning, rSo/2028, Texas + More +   Arch Manning threw his first career touchdown pass and ran for his first score in mop-up duty in No. 4 Texas' 52-0 victory over Colorado State on Saturday in the season opener. The five-star recruit with the NFL family pedigree might be the highest- profile backup quarterback in the country as he waits behind starter Quinn Ewers. And while Manning, still a freshman after playing briefly last season, might not be a threat to unseat Ewers, every step on the field is met with robust cheers from Longhorns fans. Manning, the son of Cooper Manning, is the grandson of former NFL quarterback Archie Manning, and the nephew of Super Bowl-winning QBs Peyton and Eli Manning. Texas led 38-0 in the third quarter when Manning entered the game. His first play was a 40-yard completion to Johntay Cook II. His second pass was a 5-yard TD strike to Silas Bolden. On the play, Manning scrambled to avoid a pass rush, then looked ready to bolt for the end zone before shoveling the pass to Bolden. His 1-yard touchdown run with 10 minutes left was Texas' final score. Manning's readiness to play significant minutes this season could be key in Texas' first season in the Southeastern Conference. Ewers has missed multiple games each of the previous two seasons with injuries. - AP College Football rSo/2028 QB Arch Manning, Texas News Source: AP College Football Share/Comment: Here

08/31/24 - Quinn Ewers, rJr/2025, Texas + More +   Quinn Ewers passed for 260 yards and three touchdowns and No. 4 Texas rolled past Colorado State 52-0 on Saturday in the opener for both teams. Ewers connected with Matthew Golden for a pair of touchdowns in the second quarter, and had another strike to Isaiah Bond as the Longhorns built a 31-0 lead by halftime. A big question for Texas heading into this season was just how quickly Ewers and Texas would find their rhythm in a passing attack that lost the top five receivers from the 2023 Big 12 championship team. Texas joined the Southeastern Conference this year. Golden transferred from Houston and Bond from Alabama, and Ewers and his rebuilt receiving corps easily carved up the Rams. After a slow start that included a stalled drive and an interception on Texas' first three possessions, Texas scored 24 points in the second quarter. Ewers spread passes around 10 different receiving and had 248 yards passing by halftime. He completed 20 of 27 passes before leaving the game for Arch Manning midway through the third quarter. Manning's first drive started with a 40-yard pass to Johntay Cook II. It ended with Manning's first career TD pass, a scrambling 5-yard toss to Silas Bolden, another transfer from Oregon State, that made it 45-0. - AP College Football rJr/2025 QB Quinn Ewers, Texas News Source: AP College Football Share/Comment: Here
