What is going on? Eric Henry, Texas 247 beat rider, Horne's 247, pinchitten for Chip Brown,

who had to take care of a quick emergency. He's all good. He'll be back next week.

But in the interim, we've got managing editor, Horace 247 Hank South. And we are here live from Darrell-Karell, Texas Memorial

Stadium in the immediate aftermath of Steve Sarkeesian and players post-game press conference

following the team's 27 to 10 win, which, as Steve Sarkeesian emphasized in the post-game,

is the most important thing to come out of this is the win, because we will get to all of the bad, because trust me, there was plenty of bad and ugly.

The good, Texas's defense, bad, seemingly everything else.

The team's 2710 win over Utep, a game that I will remind fans who probably don't need much of a reminder.

Texas entered this game as 41 and a half point favorites.

That was not the case here this afternoon.

Hank, I'll go to you.

What was your biggest takeaway from today's game?

Yeah, I mean, I think it's everyone's biggest takeaway is just

a sluggish offense it just didn't ever really click there were times when they got things going

and really it was right out of the gate you know first play of the game cj baxter has a four

five yard carry he comes limping off the field you lose your starting running back and kind of have

to thrust in your uh your reserve guys right away. But that wasn't even the storyline. I thought the running

backs played great in replacing CJ Baxter. The storylines Arch Manning. They just couldn't get it

going offensively. We saw off-target passes again.

You know, he threw the pick across the field in the first half or whatever that was.

And just never could really get rhythm.

They eventually started using his legs a little bit more.
