Jeff Howe and CJ Vogel react from Neyland Stadium after No. 1 Texas survived Tennessee, 20-17, on the final play. Colin Simmons delivered one of the greatest defensive performances in program history, tying the school record with five sacks as the Longhorns recorded 10 sacks and held the nation’s most explosive rushing attack to just 70 official yards. Texas escaped despite three quarters of offensive inconsistency, costly penalties and multiple special-teams mistakes. Arch Manning and the offense produced impressive touchdown drives to open and close the game, but struggled to establish an identity in between. The Longhorns enter the bye week undefeated with a championship-caliber defense—and plenty to fix before facing Oklahoma. Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

Bobby Burton and Rod Babers deliver their final predictions before No. 1 Texas enters a hostile Neyland Stadium to face Tennessee. The winning formula is simple: stop the nation’s most explosive rushing attack, force true freshman quarterback Faizon Brandon to beat Will Muschamp’s defense and establish a physical ground game that removes pressure from Arch Manning. The guys also examine Steve Sarkisian’s chess match with Jim Knowles, who owns a 2-0 record against the Texas head coach, and explain how heavy personnel could force Tennessee’s three-safety defense to reveal its intentions. Plus, Bobby predicts a 20-17 Texas victory, Rod picks the Longhorns 27-20 and the pair previews a loaded day across the SEC. Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

Jeff Howe and CJ Vogel deliver encouraging news from the final Friday injury report: Hollywood Smothers has been upgraded from questionable to probable for No. 1 Texas’ road showdown with Tennessee. His expected return gives Steve Sarkisian an important weapon as the Longhorns look to establish the run, control possession and reduce the pressure on Arch Manning inside a hostile Neyland Stadium. The guys examine how Texas could divide carries between Smothers, Derrek Cooper and Raleek Brown while challenging its interior offensive line to recreate its dominant fourth quarter against Ohio State. Plus, they discuss the increased responsibilities at tight end, the electric atmosphere building in Knoxville and why CJ believes Arch is ready to prove his doubters wrong on the SEC stage.

Jeff Howe and Hank South explain why the Texas–Tennessee showdown could be decided on the ground. The Longhorns are 24-2 under Steve Sarkisian when recording at least 40 official rushing attempts, while the Volunteers lead the nation with 29 runs of 10-plus yards. Can Texas’ powerful interior defensive line shut down Tennessee’s A- and B-gap attack and force freshman quarterback Faizon Brandon to win the game? The guys also break down Texas’ rushing plan against Jim Knowles’ defense, including the latest on Hollywood Smothers and the potential roles for Derrek Cooper, Raleek Brown and Michael Terry III. Plus, they examine whether Ian Geffrard could become the game’s defensive difference-maker and why designed runs for Arch Manning remain Sark’s “break glass in case of emergency” option.

Amanda Atwell, CJ Vogel and Bobby Burton debate how concerned Texas fans should be about Arch Manning entering a hostile road environment at Tennessee. After an uneven performance against UTSA, can Arch rediscover the aggressive mindset he displayed during comeback efforts at Mississippi State, Georgia and Ohio State—or will his recent accuracy issues follow him into Neyland Stadium?The crew also identifies the biggest surprises from Texas’ first three games, including Will Muschamp’s dominant defense and an offensive line that has yet to allow a holding penalty or commit a pre-snap infraction. Finally, CJ and Bobby clash over the decisive factor in Knoxville: whether the Longhorns must establish their own running game or prevent Tennessee’s ground attack from turning the matchup into a high-scoring shootout.
