- QB/WR: they also acted as CEO’s rather than micro-managing play calling duties and imposed quality control measure on their whole teams.

- QB/OL: Offense is a QB, o-line, WR, RB, play calling casserole of no one flavor standing out.

- QB/LB: Start a thread where no one can say Texas has to improve.

- KICKER: Updated FEI rankings for Texas (opponent-adjusted possession efficiency data) Overall: 8th Offense: 23rd Defense: 3rd Special Teams: 33rd Strength of schedule: 5th Strength of record: 1st #HookEm

- DL: Texas and Tennessee have agreed to a correction for edge rusher Colin Simmons' stats from Saturday's game.

- Pick/market: I knew they were good from watching them the last 2 weeks.

- Injury: AUSTIN, Texas — Texas football running back Hollywood Smothers suited up in an "emergency" role for the Longhorns against Tennessee on Saturday, coach Steve Sarkisian said.

- OL: Completely fair and I readily admit I’m a keyboard play caller.

- Texas recorded 10 sacks against Tennessee, five by Colin Simmons. Steve Sarkisian credited tight coverage and the front's execution of the game plan; the result does not establish a new permanent pressure package. - Texas held Tennessee to 61 rushing yards on 36 carries, meeting Sarkisian's stated under-100 target. With the defense playing well, he said Texas took fewer offensive chances to avoid short fields; that was his Tennessee-game approach, not a promised future play-calling policy. - Tennessee sacked Arch Manning six times; Sarkisian attributed some Texas protection trouble to the loud road environment and late offensive-line get-off and said several spots were out of character. He announced no offensive-line change. - Sarkisian said Texas kept Hollywood Smothers available only for an emergency against Tennessee because he was not 100%, so Raleek Brown and Derrek Cooper carried the backfield. Cooper got rolled up during the game; Sarkisian gave no diagnosis or return timetable for either back.

- OL: I keep telling myself, a win is a win and to take comfort in that, but it has been hard to feel good about the last two wins for Texas.

- Offense: It has a scheme problem as well.

- LB/DB: I do feel like that last scoring drive for tenn the defense was playing a little lazy.

- Pick/market: I definitely like Simmons chasing the QB more than dropping in some sort of coverage.

- Pick/market: How the Texas Longhorns graded out in their 20-17 win over Tennessee.

- Offense: Some under the radar areas Texas has improved in so far through 4 games compared to last season (2025 vs 2026): Penalties per game: 8.3 -> 6.2 3rd down offense: 39% -> 50% 3rd...

- LB: Longhorns LB Justin Cryer says that the emphasis this week for the defense was to stop the run.

- DL: “It backfires when you talk shit.” - Texas DL Hero Kanu in response to talk about the Longhorns not being physical.

- Defense: It wasn't pretty, but No.

- Injury: The Texas Longhorns oh-so-nearly kept the opposing offense out of the end zone for the second consecutive game.

- QB: Facts it Defense is good Sark is a overthinking dumbass Arch is an overthinking QB We some how have a clutch gene

- Pick/market: Collin Simmons is a f’n dude 6.

- QB: Which wasn't a TD if the sorry ref had called the blatant face mask of Collin Simmons right before he was about to hit the QB 🤘🤘🤘

- Defense: There better be some players running wind sprints in practice until they puke.

- Offense: Finish out the game offense, defense did their thing, Sark has to get Manning playing smart football, he’s making rookie mistakes for someone that has been in the same system for years

- Defense: Your right but I am still traumatized by Nico saying that in my head

- KICKER: I just hopped on to ask our team to just say "no" to: 1.

- LB: Great defensive effort by Longhorns LB Justin Cryer to get deflect that pass!

- LB: Great series by the Texas defensive front forces a Tennessee punt.
