Hook 'em Horns! We're number one in the nation, still number one in the nation. Didn't really play like it last night. Uh, this is the raw reaction from me, your main man Madison Davis, with the Locked On Longhorns hit with the Locked On Podcast Network. I'm gonna go through this. It's gonna be my raw reaction now. Okay. First things first, this episode is sponsored by Kalshi. Download the Kalshi app, use code HIT to get $25 when you trade $25 on Us. All right, let's let's let's get let's get into this thing. I kind of dreaded doing this, right? But won't be too negative. But I'm gonna be I'm gonna be I'm gonna be honest now. Offensively, let's talk defense first. I'm just gonna get. Let's talk defense. Defense, we looked really good. I thought I thought our defense played really well despite you know. The, the runs to the outside from UTSA, and they were able to get some of those runs, but we tackled really well. The, uh, linebackers popped, uh, corners, DBs, they popped and they tackled really, really well. Loved what I saw from them. Um, held UTSA to an abysmal 1 for 11, uh, on third down conversion. So that was a plus. That's a plus. Love getting off the field. Had some penalties, uh, and things like that, but other than that, I'm, I'm fine. I'm I'm good with that. I'm good with that. Love what I saw from them. Oh, injuries. That's right. Injuries, injuries, injuries. Colin Simmons. I did. I did see Ryan Wingo, but Ryan Wingo came back into the game. But Colin Simmons, Steve Sarkisian said it was more so a precautionary kind of like with Kobe. So I'm not really. They should be ready for the game against Tennessee, and boy, that's gonna be a big one. That's going to be a big one and one we need. Remember I told you guys we are going down our gauntlet, our SEC gauntlet, and the and I believe for the last nine well the nine SEC teams we play all of them are ranked in the top twenty-five. Yeah yeah so we got to be ready man. We got we must be ready. But first things first, Calshi, our sponsor, they have us winning the national championship. This season, we're favored to win the national championship just at 13%. We're trading at 13%, meaning if you were to trade $100 on us winning the national championship this season, your max payout would be $673.

It's good to see Derek Cooper back, right? It was great to see him back. It's great to see him back in the backfield doing his one-two thing, being physical, going downhill. I love to see it. But we were getting like 4 yards per carry, right? I want to see a little bit more than 4 yards a carry. I want, I want to see us being able to quite possibly get— let's go, let's get, let's go ahead and get this first down, right? Let's go ahead and get this first down. If not, get close to it, get about 9. Right, get about 9, 8, 7, you know, I want more than 4, right? I want more than 4, even if it's 5, I'm cool with it. Passing game, we struggled. We struggled a lot. Uh, we struggled mightily. Arch, buddy, I, I don't, I don't know what's going on. I don't know what's going on. He, he was rushing. He, it seemed like he had pre— he was predetermining where he wanted to go with the ball. Didn't look good outside of, you know, the, the, the touchdown to Cam Coleman. Then we got the, the, um, field goal. Then it was 10-3, and then we scored again with Cam Coleman once again. Glad to see Cam Coleman, you know what I'm saying, getting money, getting, getting to that paper. I love to see him get in the end zone, getting that house call, right? But offensively, we didn't do good. We didn't do good because, uh, think about it, for the rest of the game after, after the first half, the rest of the game we had 10 points. We scored a touchdown in the third quarter. In the fourth quarter, three points doesn't look good. We have to be better against Tennessee because if you don't, they are going to take your lunch money. They're going to stuff you in a locker, take your lunch money, and there's nothing you can do about it. We have to be better against these SEC opponents because I'm telling you, it's gonna get wicked. It's gonna get wicked. I did ask for a lot of responses down in the comments for. TikToks. I'm gonna ask for you guys' response already as well, I should say. You know, what were your thoughts on the game? What's your reaction? Um, and a lot of them said they were playing down to their competition, which is true. They were playing down to their competition, but they were, they were, they had worries about the offense just as I do. I need to see this fixed. I need— Arch has to be better. That, that's just what it boils down to, honestly. Arch has to be better. If Arch is better, I think this whole thing will be better. This whole thing, it's just going to run easily like a well-oiled machine. Has to be better though. Has to be better. He relied a lot on his legs too. I didn't, not against UTSA, man. Not against UTSA. I didn't want to see that. Didn't want to see that. Didn't like it. Didn't like it. And we do have time to fix these things because come Saturday, it's game time against Tennessee. Tennessee's not there. No, they're no slouch. Actually, they're ranked 14th in the country now. They moved up. They were ranked 20th. Now they're 14th. Yeah. Yeah. We got to show up. We have to play like a number one team. We have to. It's a must. It's a must. But it's been your main man Madison Davis with Locked On Longhorns hit with the Locked On Podcast Network.
