  12/01/19 - *Caden Sterns, Jr/2021, Texas, 6-0, 202 (DS#5 FS) + More +

  Texas coach Tom Herman shook up his staff Sunday, firing defensive coordinator Todd Orlando and demoting offensive coordinator Tim Beck after the Longhorns struggled to a disappointing 7-5 record in a season they were expected to contend for the Big 12 championship. The Longhorns began the season ranked in the Top 10 but are now unranked as they await their bowl destination after losing three of their last five games. Also dismissed was wide receivers coach and passing game coordinator Drew Mehringer. Inside receivers coach Corby Meekins will no longer coach but will stay in the program in an administrative role.

Beck will stay on as quarterbacks coach through the bowl game, but his status beyond that was unclear. Herman said he was "very disappointed" in the season and said that 7-5 "will never be our standard at Texas." "I take full responsibility for any and all of our shortcomings and know we need to do a better job coaching across the board," Herman said. "With that said, I do believe the future is very bright." Staff changes were expected. Herman said last week the program was in "full evaluation" mode and signaled several assistants could be let go. - AP College Football

  11/29/19 - Sam Ehlinger, Sr/2021, Texas, 6-1, 220 (DS#9 QB) + More +

  Sam Ehlinger passed for two touchdowns and ran for another to lead Texas to a 49-24 win over Texas Tech on Friday, guaranteeing the Longhorns will at least finish a disappointing season with a winning record. Texas fell behind 14-0 in the first quarter before Ehlinger and the Longhorns came roaring back. Ehlinger scored his first rushing touchdown in five games, and later connected on scoring strikes of 75 yards to Devin Duvernay and 26 yards to Jake Smith. Ehlinger finished with 348 yards passing and ran for 83 yards on 10 carries. Roschon Johnson added 105 yards rushing and three touchdowns.

Texas (7-5, 5-4 Big 12) started the season ranked in the Top 10 after last season’s Sugar Bowl victory, but stumbled badly over the second half of coach Tom Herman’s third season. A loss Friday would have meant Texas had to win its bowl game to have a winning season. Texas avoided that kind of pressure thanks to Ehlinger and the Longhorns offense playing their best football since early October. Texas Tech (4-8, 2-7) jumped out early with two quick touchdown drives as quarterback Jett Duffey was carving up the Longhorns defense. But the Red Raiders also had three drives end on downs deep in Texas territory as Texas Tech’s first-year coach Matt Wells chased an upset win to end the season. Duffey passed for 398 yards. - AP College Football

  11/09/19 - Cameron Dicker, Sr/2022, Texas, 6-1, 216 (DS#4 K) + More +

  Cameron Dicker kicked a 26-yard field goal as time expired to lift Texas past Kansas State as the Longhorns maintained their hopes of returning to the Big 12 championship game. Dicker has won games on the final play twice this season. His 33-yarder to beat Kansas on Oct. 19 capped a wild 50-48 finish. Texas (6-3, 4-2) had lost two of its previous three games. The victory over the Wildcats (6-3, 3-3, No. 16 College Football Playoff) made the Longhorns bowl-eligible and kept them in the hunt for a berth in the league championship with three games left. Keaontay Ingram rushed for 139 yards and two second-half touchdowns for the Longhorns. Kansas State rallied to tie it on Joshua Youngblood's 98-yard kickoff return and Blake Lynch's 45-yard field goal. - Texas/AP College Football

  The Texas defense has been severely depleted by injuries and gets a key player back this week in sophomore safety Caden Sterns. An All-Big 12 player last year, Sterns has missed four games with a leg injury and his absence left gaping holes in coverage and run support. - AP College Football

  11/08/19 - Sam Ehlinger, Sr/2021, Texas, 6-1, 220 (DS#9 QB) + More +

  Texas quarterback Sam Ehlinger is still on a tear through the school's single-season passing records, but his last few games have been kind of rough. He's completing less than 60% of his passes the last four games and has six interceptions to eight touchdowns. Herman, however, says he has "no issues" about Ehlinger's play and that only one of the turnovers against TCU was his fault. "Everybody wants to look at sacks and say the O-line stinks," Herman said. "Everybody wants to look at interceptions and say the quarterback stinks or had a bad game. He made one bad decision." - AP College Football

  11/04/19 - Darion Dunn, rSr/2022, Texas, 5-11, 185 (DS#125 CB) + More +

  NOV 4 SOUTHLAND DEFENSIVE PLAYER OF THE WEEK: Darion Dunn, McNeese, Jr., Cornerback, Oakdale, La.,...Dunn completed a pair of interceptions in McNeese's 30-20 win over Northwestern State this past Saturday. His two picks led to 10-total points for the Cowboys. Dunn's first interception sparked a seven-play drive for McNeese that resulted in a field goal to close the NSU lead to 10-9. His final interception of the game came late in the third quarter on the Cowboys' 46-yard line, igniting a 21-point McNeese run. The junior cornerback now has a pair of two-interception games this season. Honorable Mention: Sully Laiche, Nicholls; Ferlando Jordan, Southeastern La.; Cameron Godfrey; Central Arkansas. - Southland Football

  Mario Cristobal wished senior wide receiver Brenden Schooler well after he entered the transfer portal on Tuesday. "We support him and his choice," the coach said. Schooler missed the first four games of the season after injuring his foot in August. He had two catches for 44 yards this season. The move was a blow to the Ducks, who also lost senior tight end Jacob Breeland to a season-ending injury last week. - AP College Football

  OCT 21/WEEK 8 BIG 12 SPECIAL TEAMS PLAYERS OF THE WEEK: Cameron Dicker, K, So., Texas,...The sophomore Dicker made two field goals (39 yards, 33 yards) against Kansas, including the game-winning 33-yard kick as time expired to cap Texas' 50-48 win over Kansas. Dicker's kick was the Longhorns' eighth last-second victory in school history and the first since 2011. - Big 12 Football

  10/20/19 - Cameron Dicker, Sr/2022, Texas, 6-1, 216 (DS#4 K) + More +

  On the brink of being upset, Texas put the game in the hands of quarterback Sam Ehlinger and on the foot of the Longhorn player that coach Tom Herman refuses to call by name. Ehlinger came through again. So did Cameron Dicker the kicker. Given the ball with just 1:11 to play after Kansas had taken a one-point lead, Ehlinger drove the Longhorns to the Jayhawks' 21-yard line. Dicker did the rest, calmly booting a 33-yard field goal as time expired to send the No. 15 Longhorns to a 50-48 victory in a wild game with a frantic fourth quarter that saw the teams exchange six touchdowns, two field goals and a blocked extra point for a 2-point safety. "I love kickers," said Herman, who makes a joke of not saying a kicker's name, and still didn't in his postgame news conference. "I'm glad that we have the one we have."

It's the second career game-winner the sophomore has delivered for the Longhorns. His field goal in the final seconds beat Oklahoma last season. After beating Kansas, the student section of fans was chanting his name. "When we got into 10 seconds left ... I was ready to go," Dicker said. "I felt pretty confident going into this. Going in and nailing it felt pretty good." Kansas, under first-year coach Les Miles, nearly had a victory that would have stunned the Big 12 and knocked Texas out of the ranks of favorite to get to the league championship. And the Jayhawks (2-5, 0-4) were oh-so-close. Pooka Williams rushed for 190 yards and two touchdowns and Carter Stanley passed for 310 yards and four touchdowns for the Jayhawks. - Texas/AP College Football

  Texas defensive end Malcolm Roach was suspended for the first half after a targeting penalty a week earlier against Oklahoma. He made a big impact with his return as Williams found tougher running in the second half. Roach also got the surge up the middle to block the extra point that Texas returned the other way. Herman called it the "play of the game." - Texas/AP College Football

  Texas Sam Ehlinger has had 391, 386 and 384 total yards in his three games against Oklahoma - the three highest outputs by a Texas quarterback against the Sooners. He scored nine touchdowns (four passing, five rushing) against them in the two games last season. - AP College Football
