    Texas falls to Florida for 2 Straight Unranked Losses, Sark says it's Time to “Evaluate Everything,”

    For the second straight week, Texas lost 27-24 to an unranked team after building a double-digit lead. A 17-3 lead over Florida slipped away, the Gators controlled the second half with 46 rushes and nearly 38 minutes of possession, and Texas drops to 4-2 (1-2 SEC) with Ole Miss coming to town. Jeremy Hills, Mark Higgins and Nick Shuley react live on 3rd & Longhorn and take your questions: Where this offense lost its way after the opening script, and why it still lacks an identity The fourth-and-one in the second quarter that swung the game Arch’s struggles, short-yardage problems, and how Texas answers the blitz What went right: clean football, one penalty, and a strong special teams day led by Ryan Niblett’s big return Sark’s “evaluate everything” message and what changes could come this week Why every game from here is playoff mode Credit to Florida, who won on the road with a quarterback making his first start.

    Red River Recap: Texas vs. Oklahoma - What Went Right, What to Fix, and Why Texas Bounces Back

    Texas came up short 27-24 against Oklahoma in the Cotton Bowl. One October loss doesn’t change what’s possible for this team, though, and the panel lays out why. On this episode of 3rd & Longhorn, former Longhorns Alex Okafor, Derrick Johnson, Rod Babers, Fozzy Whittaker, Jeremy Hills and Mark Higgins join Nick Shuley to cover the whole picture: What went right: a dominant first half from the defense, Arch’s answer drive after the pick six, and big plays from Wingo and Bishop What to fix: three-and-outs, finding an offensive identity, and getting special teams back on track (including how Mack Brown once turned it around) The players’ mindset: how this team gets its get-back, and why the maturity of the locker room matters most right now Why Texas bounces back: the gauntlet is behind them, and everything they want is still in front of them The remaining schedule by the numbers, and what it means heading into Florida Breaking down everything happening on the 40: from the field, to the film, to the fans.

    The Boz Crosses the River: Brian Bosworth Talks Texas, Switzer & Red River Rivalry | Enemy Territory

    For the first time ever, 3rd & Longhorn sat down with someone from the other side of the Red River. Yes, Brian Bosworth is a Sooner. Yes, we let him on stage anyway. And Texas fans are going to want to hear this one. The Boz grew up in Irving surrounded by Longhorn fans, including a high school coach who played “The Eyes of Texas” outside his locker all week. He tells us how that fueled a lifelong grudge, why he promised his grandfather he’d play at Oklahoma when he was 9 years old, how Barry Switzer unlocked the personality behind one of college football’s original trendsetters, and what it felt like to dominate Texas in 1985. He also breaks down what a great defense has to do to win games when the offense isn’t holding up its end, and why he still thinks Texas-OU is the best rivalry in college football. Hosted by Nick Shuley with Jeremy Hills and Mark Higgins. Recorded live at the Paul “Bear” Bryant Awards in support of the American Heart Association in Arlington, Texas at TEXAS LIVE!

    Blocked Punt, Pick-6, Walk-Off Kick: How #1 Texas Lost to Oklahoma 27-24 | LIVE Postgame Recap Show

    The #1 Texas Longhorns go down in Dallas. Oklahoma wins the Red River Rivalry 27-24 on Tate Sandell’s 47-yard field goal as time expired, and we’re LIVE breaking down all of it.
