Never Retreat, Never Surrender | A Texas Longhorns Dynasty

WEEK THIRTEEN

#14 CLEMSON TIGERS (8-2, 6-2)
VS.
#19 TEXAS LONGHORNS (6-4, 4-3)



Week_13.png


In a tale of two teams headed in opposite direction, the 19th ranked Longhorns lost their third straight game at home this season, falling to #14 Clemson by 21 points. Meanwhile, the Tigers clinched their third straight Big XII east title with a 7-2 conference record, and got their revenge after back-to-back losses against Texas in the conference championship game the past two seasons. Despite being outgained in total yardage, the Tigers easily won the game thanks to a defense that recorded three interceptions, and returned two of them for touchdowns in a commanding 38-17 victory on Saturday.

Clemson's defense got all of the attention following the game, but their offense certainly contributed to the win as well. Junior quarterback Chad Kelly completed 18 of 30 passes for 242 yards, one touchdown, and one interception. His go-to man was junior Adam Bailey, who had 11 catches for 138 yards. As for the ground game, runningbacks Tyler Levine and Zac Brooks led the effort, combining for 108 yards and two touchdowns off 18 carries for an average of six yards per touch. But it was senior defensive players B.J. Goodson (MLB) and Ronald Geohaghan (FS) who received the most press as each player recorded an interception and returned it for a touchdown. Goodson recorded seven tackles and went 36 yards for a score with just five seconds left on the clock in the first half to extend Clemson's lead to 21-10, while Geohaghan went 77 yards in the fourth quarter to effectively seal the win. Senior cornerback Cortez Davis also recorded a pick, and had eight tackles as well. Despite allowing 413 total offensive yards, the Tigers stepped up where it mattered the most, limiting the Longhorns to just 17 points in five redzone trips, and allowing only five successful conversion on thirteen 3rd down attempts. With a third straight trip to the Big XII title game already clinched, Clemson will be looking for state bragging rights when they hit the road to face off against SEC rival South Carolina (5-5, 4-4) in their regular season finale next week.

On the other side of the ball, sophomore quarterback Daniel Pratt had a rough day under center to say the least, completing 16 of 30 passes for 187 yards and throwing three interceptions, two of which were returned for touchdowns. Pratt also rushed for 82 yards and a score off 15 carries. Leading the way in the receiving corps was junior Cayleb Jones, who had eleven catches for 111 yards. Jones is quietly having one of the most productive years for a wide receiver at Texas since the change at head coach in 2012, and needs just 96 yards in the regular season finale to set a new record for most receiving yards in a single season in the Applewhite era. On the ground, Jonathan Gray led the team with 101 yards off 21 carries, and backup runningback Daje Johnson added five carries for eleven yards and a touchdown. Texas' defense recorded two sacks, one interception, and allowed just two successful conversions on eight 3rd down attempts, but they also allowed 387 total offensive yards and 24 points in four redzone trips for Clemson's offense. Also, the team lost starting offensive guard Curtis Riser for the rest of the year with a broken tailbone, putting him on the bench alongside starting left tackle Kennedy Estelle. Second-year freshman Andrew Chapman will take his place in the starting lineup.

It's clear now that the mystique of DKR-Texas Memorial Stadium is a distant memory for this season, and the team has dropped out of the top 25 for the first time in 2015 after their third loss in the last four weeks, so nothing is guaranteed when the Longhorns host #8 TCU (8-3, 5-3) in their regular season finale next week. Just like Texas, the Horned Frogs rely on their outstanding running game to lead the offense. Senior runningback Aaron Green is 2nd in the nation with 1,509 rushing yards and 18 touchdowns for an average of 7.1 yards per carry this season, and is the current favorite to take home the Heisman trophy at the end of the year. TCU also ranks 27th in total defense and has a +8 turnover differential, which is a far cry from Texas' 76th defensive ranking.

#8 TCU HORNED FROGS (8-3, 5-3)
VS.
TEXAS LONGHORNS (6-5, 4-4)



Week_14.png


After being embarrassed by Clemson last week, the Longhorns were in danger of finishing the season 6-6, which would have been a new low for head coach Major Applewhite in his four seasons with the team. But Texas played with heart in their regular season finale, rushing for 363 yards and jumping out to a 24-0 lead before fending off a valiant TCU comeback to upset the 8th ranked team in the country, and finish the regular season with a 7-5 (5-4) record.

Behind the strength of their running game, the unranked Longhorns found themselves with a 24-0 lead midway through the first quarter, but that lead quickly disappeared as the Horned Frogs rattled off 28 unanswered points to take the lead late in the third quarter, threatening to humiliate Texas one last time this season. But the team didn't quit, and the offense put up a 50-yard field goal and a nine-yard run by Pratt to retake the lead while their defense held TCU scoreless for the final 20 minutes to give the Longhorns a 33-28 victory, and put them back into the top 25 after falling out for the first time this season following their loss to Clemson last week. Daniel Pratt completed 12 of 22 passes for 112 yards, one touchdown, and one interception, but most importantly rushed for 105 yards and a score off 12 carries. In his first year as starter, Pratt completed 54% of his passes for 2,198 yards, 20 touchdowns, and 14 interceptions, and also rushed for 927 yards and eight more scores. As for the team's runningbacks, Jonathan Gray had 117 yards and two scores off 20 carries, Daje Johnson added seven carries for 69 yards, and third-string runningback Ken Fogle even got in on the action, rushing for 62 yards off 11 carries. Defensively, Texas recorded two interceptions, and held the Horned Frogs to just two successful conversions on six 3rd down tries.

As for TCU, a promising season ended with a 3-3 record in their last six games as they dropped games to in-state conference foes Texas Tech, Baylor, and Texas to end the year. Junior quarterback Tyler Matthews completed 13 of 21 passes for 231 yards, two touchdowns, and two interceptions. His go-to man was junior tight end Griffin Gilbert, who had four catches for 106 yards, while senior Ladarius Brown caught four balls for 74 yards and a score. On the ground, senior runningback Aaron Green rushed for 97 yards and two touchdowns off 15 carries, but his reps were limited after the team fell behind by four scores in the first half, forcing them to change their offensive gameplan. TCU's defense forced one turnover, but also allowed 475 total offensive yards, and 30 points in six redzone trips.

Now the only thing left to do is sit back and wait for conference championship weekend to wrap up, and see where Texas is headed in the postseason. The current bowl projections have Texas facing off against former conference foe Nebraska (7-5, 5-4) in the Meineke Car Care Bowl.

NORTHWESTERN WILDCATS (6-6, 4-5)
VS.
#20 TEXAS LONGHORNS (7-5, 5-4)



Bowl.png


Under tremendous pressure to salvage a lackluster season, and not only beat but clearly dominate an inferior opponent in their bowl game, the Longhorns delivered on all fronts on New Year's Eve. Led by their first-year starter at quarterback, #20 Texas easily contained Northwestern's offense while putting up nearly 450 yards of total offense themselves in a decisive 33-13 victory.

Vince Young 2.0? Hopes will certainly be high for Pratt next year after his closing performance in 2015, as he completed 15 of 29 passes for 238 yards and two touchdowns with no interceptions, and also led the rushing effort with 74 yards and a score off 16 carries for an average of 4.6 yards per touch. His go-to man through the air was junior Cayleb Jones, who had three catches for 87 yards and a touchdown, while junior tight end Raishaun Blanco caught four balls for 46 yards and a score. On the ground, Jonathan Gray and backup Daje Johnson split time in the backfield, combining for 114 yards off 23 carries. Defensively, Texas had a great day, and more specifically their junior defensive ends imposed their will. Hassan Ridgeway recorded six tackles and two sacks, and Torshiro Davis led the team with eight tackles and 1.5 sacks. Northwestern was held to 273 yards of total offense, averaged just three yards per rushing attempt, and were held to 13 points in three redzone trips.

On the other side of the ball, junior quarterback Jeremy Moore struggled with his accuracy under center, completing just 37% of his 32 passes for 164 yards and a touchdown. He also gained just seven rushing yards off 11 carries. Leading the receiving corps was senior tight end Mark Szott, who had five catches for 82 yards. Senior runningback Jordan Perkins, undoubtedly the best player on the offense, was held to 65 yards off 17 carries. Northwestern's defense recorded two sacks, and held Texas to a field goal in four of their six redzone trips, but they could not force any game-changing turnovers, and also allowed nearly 450 yards of total offense in the loss.

For the fourth consecutive year under head coach Major Applewhite, the Longhorns have finished with eight or more wins and made a bowl appearance. But small victories like that aren't enough to satisfy the appetites of a fan base that will only accept the best from their team. Now Texas will head into the offseason, where they are hoping to retain their under-classmen, and come back better and strong than ever in 2016.

UNDERCLASSMEN RETURN FOR ONE MORE SHOT AT GREATNESS
With just six players in Texas' 2016 graduating class, the only question remaining was which of the team's talented underclassmen would bolt for the draft. Today, that question was answered: zero. With the taste of underachievement from an 8-5 (5-4) season fresh in their mouths, all underclassmen chose to return to the team for next year, giving the Longhorns one of the most talented and experienced rosters in the nation for 2016. Among the notable players choosing to return were juniors Johnathan Gray (HB), Cayleb Jones (WR), Raishaun Blanco (TE), Torshiro Davis (DE), Malcolm Brown (DT), and Barry Morrow (CB).


MARSHALL MOVED TO DEFENSIVE TACKLE, PROJECTED TO START IN 2016
Injuries to starting defensive ends Torshiro Davis and Hassan Ridgeway at different points in the season forced backup Kevin Marshall to step into the starting lineup quite a few times, and he didn't disappoint, leading the team with 5.5 sacks last year. Wanting to put their best foot forward at every position, the Longhorns announced today that Marshall would be moved to defensive tackle in 2016, where he is projected to start alongside Malcolm Brown. Replacing Marshall at defensive end will be four-star prospect Terry Arnold (DT), a true freshman who is expected to be redshirted this season.

ONLY FOUR CHANGES TO STARTING LINEUP FOR 2016
Following a record-low turnover rate for the Longhorns in the spring, there are only four changes to the starting lineup for the new season. First, third-year sophomore Brett Christensen will replace junior Ronnie Moss at center. Moss had a fantastic year in 2014, but allowed seven sacks last season to convince the coaches to make the change. Moss will continue to serve as a crucial backup on the o-line. On the other side of the ball, former defensive end Kevin Marshall will assume a starring role at defensive tackle, replacing sophomore Tyler Rogers, who was decidedly unimpressive in his starting spot last year. Finally, there are two changes on special teams. Junior Blake Paris will take over the kicking duties for the recently graduated Nick Jordan, and offensive superstar Johnathan Gray (HB) will replace the graduated Daje Johnson as the team's primary kick and punt returner. Gray saw time as a kick returner last season, racking up 668 yards and a 99-yard return for a touchdown. With the recent emergence of junior quarterback Daniel Pratt, Gray's workload at runningback is expected to diminish, so the team will look to get him on the field in any way possible.

#7 TEXAS LONGHORNS (0-0, 0-0)



GRAY GETS FRIENDLY WITH ENDZONE IN 48-21 WIN
SENIOR RUNNINGBACK JONATHAN GRAY SCORED FOUR TIMES IN TEXAS' SEASON-OPENING VICTORY


The offense looks a lot like it did last year...only better. Up against one of the worst teams in the FBS, the Longhorns made it look easy in their season opener, leading 31-7 by halftime before cruising to a 48-21 victory on Saturday. Junior quarterback Daniel Pratt is back and better than ever at the helm of the offense, and in his first action of 2016 he completed 19 of 27 (70%) passes for 331 yards and a touchdown, and also rushed for 86 yards and another score off 12 carries for an average of 7.1 yards per touch. His go-to man through the air was senior Cayleb Jones, who had seven catches for 153 yards and a touchdown, while junior Seth Williams caught six balls for 111 yards. But player of the game honors went to senior runningback Jonathan Gray, who only carried the ball 18 times, but rushed for 118 yards and four touchdowns in the win. Meanwhile, newly-appointed backup and heir apparent Ken Fogle had 46 yards off ten carries in his limited action. Defensively, junior Brandon Capps (OLB) led the team with seven tackles, one sack, and an interception. As a unit, Texas limited the Bulldogs to 243 total offensive yards, and only allowed 55 rushing yards off 17 carries. Meanwhile, their own offense scored six touchdowns and two field goals in eight redzone trips, and the o-line allowed just one sack. Next week, the road to perfection gets noticeably harder when the Longhorns play host to #11 Texas A&M (0-0, 0-0) in the annual Lone Star Showdown. Thanks to a second half surge, the Aggies beat Texas 31-20 last year, and went on to finish the year with a 9-4 (6-3) record, losing to Baylor in the AT&T Cotton Bowl. Texas A&M has a new look on offense this season, with freshman Jerome Higdon (QB) and sophomore Scott McMahan (HB) leading the team, but their defense is still a talented and dangerous unit, led by stars like seniors Polo Manukainiu (DE) and Nick Chavis (CB).

Longhornsnews.png



SIX PLAYERS COMMIT TO TEXAS AFTER WEEK ONE BLOWOUT
With nineteen players set to graduate at the end of the season, 2016 should prove to be far more active in terms of recruiting than last year. Case in point: the Longhorns grabbed commitments from six players after just one week, already matching their total number of recruits from a year ago. On the offensive side of the ball, four-star prospects Brandon Lawson (G) and Mike Pennington (T) will join the offensive line next season, both of them Texas natives. Both players are listed in the top 150 prospects in the nation, but neither one is likely to see playing time in the near future with so many talented players on the roster. With four of the team's five offensive tackles graduating over the next two seasons, Pennington stands the best chance at seeing some early action. At runningback, four-star prospect Alvin Dockery joins the ranks of Texas' feared ground game, and is rated as the 2nd best player coming out of Louisiana. Dockery is a bruising back, capable of picking up the tough yards in between the tackles, but his road to the starting lineup will be long with such a deep runningback corps already on the roster. Defensively, four-star prospects Chris Brown (OLB) and J.B. Cook (CB) will look to continue making Texas one of the most feared defenses in the lands. Brown has little to no chance of starting right away, but with five of the team's seven cornerbacks graduating over the next two years, it may not be long until Cook is a valuable member of the secondary. Finally, three-star prospect Edwin Mitchell (P) of Bridge City, Texas joined the special teams unit, and will redshirt next year in anticipation of joining the starting lineup in 2018 once current starters Blake Paris (K) and Charles Lambert (P) are gone.

Week_2.png


Freshman quarterback Jerome Higdon began his career at Texas A&M with a bang, accounting for over 400 all-purpose yards and five touchdowns...but one man does not make a team. Jonathan Gray was his usual effective self, Daniel Pratt made up for his early mistakes, and the 7th ranked Longhorns overcame a pesky Aggies team to notch their third win over their hated rivals in the last four years.

Junior quarterback Daniel Pratt was intercepted once and fumbled the ball twice in the first half, nearly sealing the fate of his team, but bounced back with three touchdowns in the second half to lead Texas to their second win of the season. Pratt completed 15 of 29 passes for 210 yards, one touchdown, and one interception, and also rushed for 64 yards and two scores off 14 carries. His go-to man was senior Cayleb Jones, who had six catches for 136 yards, eclipsing 100+ receiving yards for the second straight week. As for the ground game, Johnathan Gray continued his Heisman campaign, rushing for 165 yards and two touchdowns off 20 carries for an impressive average of 8.2 yards per touch, while backup runningback Ken Fogle racked up 56 yards off nine carries. Defensively, the Longhorns allowed 486 total offensive yards and five touchdowns in six redzone trips, but also recorded four sacks and three turnovers in the win.

On the other side of the ball, second-year freshman quarterback Jerome Higdon was extremely impressive in his first collegiate start, completing 20 of 36 passes for 326 yards and two touchdowns, and leading the rushing effort with 102 yards and three more scores off 23 carries to account for all but 58 of the team's total offensive yards. His go-to man through the air was junior Joseph Givens, who had eight catches for 173 yards. Texas A&M's defense recorded three sacks and forced three turnovers, but also allowed nearly 500 yards of total offense, and scores in all five of Texas' redzone trips. Still seeking their first win of the season, the Aggies will head home next week to host USC (1-0, 1-0) before opening up their conference schedule with a road game against NC State.

Riding the high of an emotional victory, the #5 Longhorns will hit the road next week to wrap up their 2016 non-conference schedule against UTEP (0-1, 0-0), who dropped their season-opening game to an FCS opponent in week one, 26-21. The Miners are clearly outmatched in this game, and it will take nothing short of a miracle to even make this one a contest.
