The guys evaluate the chances of Swofford reaching campus, Texas baseball’s explosive start to the 2028 cycle and how both programs are building championship rosters around elite high school prospects while using the transfer portal strategically.

Jeff Howe and CJ Vogel identify four areas where No. 1 Texas still has something to prove before entering SEC play. The starting cornerbacks have impressed, but uncertainty remains at safety and throughout the secondary’s depth. The offensive line also must show that its physical fourth-quarter performance against Ohio State was a sustainable breakthrough—not a one-game high.The guys also explain why Texas needs more explosive runs, fewer ineffective perimeter plays and greater vertical consistency from Arch Manning. Manning may not be a polished pocket passer yet, but his instincts and late-game playmaking give the Longhorns a championship-caliber weapon. Plus, special teams remains a relative unknown as Texas prepares for UTSA and its looming road test at Tennessee. Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

Amanda Atwell puts Bobby Burton and CJ Vogel head-to-head over Arch Manning’s performance against Ohio State. Bobby gives Arch an eight for powering the historic comeback, while CJ argues that missed reads, unnecessary scrambles and unclaimed explosive plays lower the grade to a six. Did the fourth-quarter heroics outweigh three uneven quarters and the yards Texas left on the field?The debate then turns to the biggest trap game remaining on Texas’ schedule, with Oklahoma, Florida and Tennessee all receiving consideration. Finally, Bobby identifies the safety play and third-down defense as the Longhorns’ most troubling weakness, while CJ points to the offense’s recurring slow starts against elite defenses. Amanda delivers the deciding verdict and crowns this week’s Locking Horns winner. Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

Jeff Howe, CJ Vogel and Hank South react to Steve Sarkisian’s final media availability before No. 1 Texas faces UTSA. Sark confirms that assistant coach Johnny Nansen was not with the team Thursday following a DWI charge, while his status for Saturday remains undetermined. The crew also discusses freshman running back Derrek Cooper’s return, Nick Townsend being ruled out and the unanswered availability questions surrounding Justice Terry and Lawrence Seymour.The guys examine what Texas must correct before SEC play, including ball security, explosive plays and one of the nation’s lowest-ranked third-down defenses. Plus, Sark explains why he restored the six-offensive-lineman package, how Raleek Brown and Ryan Wingo maintained his trust after early mistakes and why Arch Manning’s strong week of practice creates an opportunity to build momentum before the Longhorns travel to Tennessee.
