November 23, 2023 - Texas Tech Preview Nov 23, 2023

Show notes

The No. 7 Texas Longhorns have one more hurdle to clear before earning their spot in the Big 12 title game, the Texas Tech Red Raiders.

November 21, 2023 - Texas takes care of Iowa State Nov 21, 2023

Show notes

The No. 7 Texas Longhorns continue their final trek through the Big 12, heading to Ames for one last tilt against the Iowa State Cyclones -- a place they haven't had significant success recently.

Texas managed to flip the script, thanks to some helpful inspiration from Iowa State's players, and came away with a comfortable victory against the Cyclones. With the win, Texas keeps itself alive for both the conference and CFP race, with one game left on the calendar.

How did Texas find success with an offense dealing with injuries and what can the defense carry over to its Black Friday matchup against Texas Tech?

November 16, 2023 - Texas heads to Ames one last time Nov 16, 2023

Show notes

The No. 7 Texas Longhorns are faced with yet another tough test on their return to relevance.

A win this week gives them their first 10-win regular season since 2009 and clinches a spot in the Big 12 championship game. Standing in the way of that is a foe that has won three of the last four games against the Longhorns -- the Iowa State Cyclones.

Matt Campbell's squad is surging and is a part of that massive tie for second place in the conference and a spot in Arlington. A win over Texas puts them in control of their own destiny, while a loss effectively removes them from the race.

How will Texas fare in the chilly Iowa night?

November 14, 2023 - Texas outlasts TCU Nov 14, 2023

Show notes

The No. 7 Texas Longhorns once again built up a big early lead befoe watching it dwindle against the TCU Horned Frogs, but did enough to hold off the comeback and come away with a win.

Texas moves to 9-1 on the year, with the passing game having trouble finding consistency and star running back Jonathon Brooks out with a knee injury. What is behind these struggles and what can Texas do to iron things out with just two games left on the schedule?

November 9, 2023 - TCU Preview w/Coach Melissa Nov 09, 2023

Show notes

Melissa Triebwasser of the Frogs Insider Pod and Dave Campbell's Texas Football joins to discuss Texas' last meeting with TCU in the Big 12 (good riddance).

Despite her numerous efforts to make it seem like Texas should win easy, Kyle has his skepticism...because he's been hurt before and TCU is known to play opossum in the week(s) leading up to The Texas Game.

November 7, 2023 - Texas survives Kansas State Nov 07, 2023

Show notes

The No. 7 Texas Longhorns got off to about as dominant start as anyone could've dreamed in a Top 25 matchup -- holding a 320 to 33 yard advantage with a minute left in the first half...

Maalik Murphy and the Texas offense sputtered in the second half and gave the defense impossibly short fields to defend, allowing Kansas State to force OT.

With their backs against the wall and up by 3, the defense unleash an epic goal line stand to keep their conference and postseason goals alive.

November 2, 2023 - Texas prepares for Kansas State Nov 02, 2023

Show notes

The No. 7 Texas Longhorns are seemingly in control of their own destiny for a spot in the Big 12 Championship and presumably a chance at their first berth in the College Football Playoff.

The only thing that stands in their way is the four teams remaining on their schedule, starting with the Kansas State Wildcats, who are coming off two dominant performances.

October 31, 2023 - Texas dominates BYU Oct 31, 2023

Show notes

The No. 7 Texas Longhorns went into the day against the BYU Cougars with questions at the quarterback position as Maalik Murphy took over for an injured Quinn Ewers.

As Murphy adjusted to the speed of the game, the defense stepped up and shut down BYU and once Murphy got his feet underneath him, the Longhorns ran away with a big win.

What does this mean for the offense going forward and how do we feel about Texas's chances to make the Big 12 Championship game?

October 26, 2023 - Texas hosts BYU Oct 26, 2023

Show notes

The No. 7 Texas Longhorns continue to march their way toward a rematch with OU in Arlington and next they welcome the BYU Cougars to Austin.

The last time the Longhorns faced BYU, it was an embarrassing way to kick off the Charlie Strong era, a portent of things to come for the next three years. Texas and BYU are both in different positions now, with the Longhorns prepared to take off to the SEC and the Cougars finally making their way to the Big 12 as a part of the conference's reload effort.

October 24, 2023 - Texas holds off Houston Oct 24, 2023

Show notes

The No. 7 Texas Longhorns built a three-score lead then, in a flashback of days thought gone, let the Houston Cougars claw back into competition and had to hold off a late surge.

Without the aid of quarterback Quinn Ewers, the Longhorns managed to score the go-ahead touchdown and escape with a win. What was the difference and what does Texas do moving forward?
