Show notes

The Longhorns return home this week in time for what is expected to be a tough Big 12 matchup against the Mountaineers. No. 22 ranked Texas entered game week as a touchdown favorite over unranked West Virginia, but with how inconsistent this Texas team has played this season, this game could easily go either way.

On this week's interview episode of The Flagship Podcast, Mike Casazza of Eersports.com joins to the show for an in depth preview of the Mountaineers, who make their way to Austin, Texas with the same 4-2 record as the Longhorns. Horns247 columnist Chip Brown and Mike Casazza break down what has been working for West Virginia in Neal Brown's second year on the job in Morgantown, how much of an impact Arizona grad transfer LB Tony Fields has made on the Mountaineers' defense and areas where WVU could struggled when going up against this talented, yet inconsistent, Texas team in Year 4 of the Tom Herman era.

The Flagship: Spookiest test for Texas comes down on Halloween at Oklahoma State Oct 28, 2020

Show notes

The toughest challenge to-date for Texas is quickly approaching as the Longhorns prepare to hit the road for Stillwater, Okla. to face No. 6 ranked Oklahoma State this Saturday at Boone Pickens Stadium. The Cowboys, who are the lone undefeated team left in the Big 12 conference following their 4-0 start to the 2020 season, have handled business against the Longhorns in recent years with Oklahoma State entering Saturday's matchup having won the previous two games at home when hosting Texas. Fourth-year head coach Tom Herman and his team will certainly have their hands full when going up against Mike Gundy and the Cowboys, but Texas cannot afford to step up to the challenge after the rocky start to the season.

On this week's episode of The Flagship Podcast, Horns247 columnist Chip Brown and managing editor Taylor Estes go in-depth on the Longhorns upcoming road game against an Oklahoma State team that, on paper, appears to have the advantage in several areas over Texas. The hosts weigh in on how much they are buying into the progress the Longhorns showed last weekend against Baylor and where the locker room is with so much noise surrounding the program throughout the first half of the season. Chip and Taylor discuss Gundy's comments from earlier in the week and how the Cowboys' head coach may have been taking some slight shots at Herman and the Longhorns' early-season misfortunes in mentioning how much talent Texas has on its roster amid the team's on-field struggles.

The Flagship then shifts focus to Love it or Leave it, with this week's topics addressing a potential ego issue brewing with some Longhorns and how it could impact team chemistry, the lack of progress from the Texas defense, how much continuity has played a role in Herman's struggles and much more.

Show notes

The Flagship Reax: Texas showed improvements against Baylor, but will it continue? Oct 25, 2020

Show notes

After two weeks of what seemed to be constant outside noise surrounding Texas football, the Longhorns made their return to the field over the weekend and handled business against Baylor in the 27-16 win over the Bears. Fourth-year head coach Tom Herman seemed pleased with the improvements he saw from his team immediately after the Baylor game, particularly with how both sides of the ball handled the running game. But how can Texas use the confidence gained in the win over Baylor to its advantage as it makes its way down the second half to the 2020 schedule?

On this week's reaction episode of The Flagship Podcast, Horns247 columnist Chip Brown and managing editor Taylor Estes deliver their quick-hitter takeaways from Saturday's game. The hosts dive in to the Longhorns' performance on both sides of the ball, including the defense showing some improvement on third downs and in going up against the Baylor running game, and how the Texas offense not abandoning the running attack paid off in the end for Herman and the offensive staff.

Chip and Taylor also discuss how Texas can use the improvements and confidence from Saturday's game as the Longhorns have an uphill battle on their hands this weekend when Texas hits the road for Stillwater, Okla. to face the lone remaining undefeated team in the Big 12 conference — Mike Gundy and the Oklahoma State Cowboys.

Flagship Interview: Why Baylor could present a unique challenge for Texas Oct 22, 2020

Show notes

Texas returns to its home turf this Saturday as the Longhorns look to bounce back against a rebuilding Baylor team, which has only completed two games on the 2020 schedule due to recurring COVID-19 interruptions. Following losing back-to-back Big 12 games prior to the bye week, Texas has plenty to prove and improve upon throughout the remainder of the season after the Longhorns have failed to meet expectations early on in Year 4 of the Tom Herman era.

But with more than half of the games remaining on the schedule, Texas has a chance to change its trajectory starting this weekend as a two-score favorite at home against the Bears. Baylor enters Saturday's game with a lot of unknown and limited game film available under first-year head coach Dave Aranda, which could play to the Bears favor when they kickoff against Texas at 2:30 p.m. CT inside Darrell K Royal - Texas Memorial Stadium.

On this week's Texas-Baylor preview, The Flagship Podcast welcomes in long-time Baylor radio host David Smoak for an in-depth look at the Bears, including BU players Texas cannot afford to overlook, what to make of Charlie Brewer's early season struggles after the first two games, the strengths and questions marks on Baylor's roster and much more.

Catch all of that and more on The Flagship Podcast's Texas-Baylor preview with special guest David Smoak.
