Hookem
Good day. Breakfast is served.
It's Wednesday, Sept. 8. Three additional days till Texas-Arkansas and only one more till Cowboys-Bucs.
Top of the menu: Sure, the No. 1-positioned volleyball crew recorded another compass the previous evening, and definitely, everybody's actually humming over the season-opening win over Louisiana, however the greatest news Tuesday must be UT's declaration that Salt-N-Pepa will play the LBJ Lawn the evening of Sept. 18 in front of the Rice game. From Geico Insurance to Bevo Boulevard, maybe. The show will begin at 2 p.M. Here is our story.
A portion of our different Horns inclusion: Danny Davis expounded in all out attack mode line on Tuesday. Beginning right watchman Junior Angilau went down with a physical issue in the final quarter of the opener, and genuine first year recruit Hayden Conner — the reinforcement right tackle — slid over to complete the game at monitor. "It was great to see Hayden come in and truly stand his ground, particularly at a youthful age," right tackle Derek Kerstetter, a senior, said. "It's difficult to play hostile line when you're a rookie. He came in and played incredibly well."
At the point when Kerstetter discusses playing as a rookie, pay attention to him.
Also, on the off chance that you haven't read Brian Davis' story from Sunday on how previous UT men's ball player Carlton Dixon has helped dress the football players in their own unmistakable, specially hued suits for their passage to the arena on Saturdays, it's great. Furthermore, on Monday, Brian advised us that Reggie Bush's 2005 Heisman run launched with a major Week 2 game against Arkansas. Hi, Bijan Robinson?
Discovered: An amazing read by David Courtney at Texas Monthly on the destined to-be-reestablished Texas-Texas A&M contention as the new SEC weavers, the inquiry: How will getting tossed into a similar gathering again influence the real fellowships of Longhorns and Aggies whose individual competitions have commonly cooled in the course of recent years? Likewise, however we're only one game into the season (see beneath), ESPN has made the very early bowl projection: Texas versus Texas A&M in the Sugar Bowl. That is the connection to the Sports Illustrated story.
Contrarian information: Speaking of recharged competitions, the Arkansas Democrat-Gazette expounded on the resumption of Texas-Arkansas, "a game 15 years really taking shape."
On to Texas versus Arkansas.
"Only one game. I need to continue to help myself to remember that," our own Kirk Bohls writes in his nine things and one insane expectation segment in the present Statesman. Also, he's right. Texas' 38-18 success over Louisiana was a 38-18 success over the No. 23 group in the country last Saturday, yet presently it's a success over a group that is not positioned, and who can say for sure what it might resemble in November, maybe blurred into Texas' other late openers like 59-3 over UTEP or 45-14 over Louisiana Tech.
Yet, in every one of those two seasons, 2019 and 2020, it's been Week 2 that has been a telling game, not the first. In 2019, Texas extinguished Louisiana Tech and leaped to No. 9 in front of facilitating No. 6 LSU the following week — a 45-38 misfortune to the Tigers in what might be perhaps their hardest round of the public title season; and last year, after the 59-3 cavort over UTEP, that subsequent game was the 63-56 nailbiter win in additional time over Texas Tech in Lubbock. Also, that was trailed by two straight misfortunes.
Along these lines, indeed, Texas climbed four spots in the mentors survey on Tuesday and six spots in the AP survey, and indeed, the Razorbacks are on their fourth lead trainer over the most recent five years, and indeed, Arkanas has gone 2-10, 2-10, 3-7 the most recent three years and completed rearward in the SEC West each time. Yet, this is a risky game: antagonistic climate, a rambunctious group, a major leap in rivals' gatherings and you're beginning a redshirt first year recruit at quarterback in just his subsequent game.
What the Horns are strolling into:
Wiki Razorbacks
Dissimilar to Louisiana last week, Arkansas is not really an obscure for Texas fans. The two schools went through as much as sixty years as Southwest Conference rivals, broadly playing "The Game of the Century" in Fayetteville in 1969 with President Richard Nixon in participation, a 15-14 UT win. Texas drives the untouched series 56-22, however Saturday will be their first gathering since 2014 and just the 6th over the most recent 30 years.
Prominent past football trainers incorporate Frank Broyles, who went 144-58-5 with the Razorbacks from 1958-76; Lou Holtz (1977-83), Ken Hatfield (55-17-1 from 1984-89); and Bobby Petrino (2008-11)
The Razorbacks have won four of the last six gatherings, yet Texas has won two of the last three played in Fayetteville. The last time the two played was a taxing night for the Longhorns — the 31-7 misfortune in the 2014 Texas Bowl that saw Texas oversee just 57 yards of offense for the whole game.
A few things possibly you don't think about Arkansas:

The battleground is named Frank Broyles Field out of appreciation for the unbelievable mentor and AD.
• Texas has its Hook Them, Horns. Arkansas has its "Calling the Hogs" serenade, or in a real sense: Wooooo Pig Sooie!
• The arena has had regular grass for the beyond two years.
• Every year, Arkansas and LSU play for the Golden Boot, a four-foot tall, 175-pound prize. Think Golden Hat for Texas-Oklahoma. LSU drives the Golden Boot series 15-8.
• OK, we should talk mascot. Arkansas' live mascot is Tusk, a Russian pig that is at each home game and in some cases goes with the group. Arkansas presently is on Tusk V; the first Tusk I started the mascot genealogy in 1997 — all progressive Tusks have been connected. Tusk I, who served from 1997-2004, fathered Tusk II in 2002 and passed on two years after the fact; Tusk II served till 2010 and weighed very nearly 500 pounds; Tusk III (2010-11) was Tusk II's sibling and Tusk I's child; Tusk IV (2011-19) broadly sent roses to Bevo in 2015 add to LSU's Mike the Tiger in 2016 when both adversary mascots were determined to have malignant growth; Tusk V is the child of Tusk IV.
• The school's unique mascot, incidentally, was the Cardinals. It was changed to the Razorbacks in 1910.
• In 2006, Arkansas' Razorback Marching Band won the Sudler Trophy, which has been depicted as the Heisman Trophy for school groups. Texas, incidentally, won it in 1986. No school is permitted to win it over two times. The people who come to Fayetteville can get the band live.
In case you're going to Fayetteville this end of the week, some food proposals: For lunch — Mess Hall 45 (burgers/sandwiches), Hugo's (burgers), Mockingbird Kitchen (American solace food); for supper — Theo's Bar and Dining Room (new American); for dessert — Crepes and Company.
