Summary

The bye week may have come at an opportune time for Texas to return some players from injury, but the last two weeks post the four-overtime loss to Oklahoma have been far from a cakewalk. After starting 1-2 in conference play, Texas is officially at a crossroads facing a must-win scenario this weekend what Texas hosts Baylor for Saturday's 2:30 kickoff. On this week's episode of The Flagship Podcast, Horns247 columnist Chip Brown and managing editor Taylor Estes dive in to the messy situation at Texas in Year 4 of the Tom Herman era in Austin. The hosts discuss how Herman's seat is heating up in a year the majority of pundits would have never imagined to be the case, and how the head coach needs to regain control of his team after being the subject of constant outside noise stemming from off the field issues. The Flagship also weighs in on the focus for Herman and his staff after completing the first third of the season, particularly on defense as the Longhorns are on-pace to finish as the worst scoring defense in school history. The Flagship then shifts focus to our staple Love it or Leave it segment, with this week's topics touching on how the relationship between Herman and Baylor coach Dave Aranda could impact Saturday's game, what it will take for Texas to handle business as a two-score favorite over a team that has been plagued by COVID-19 disruptions and more! Catch all of that and much more on this week's episode of The Flagship Podcast.
