Texas’ ELITE Defense Faces Its Biggest Test Yet

Jeff Howe, Gerry Hamilton and CJ Vogel explain how Will Muschamp has transformed Texas into one of the nation’s elite defenses. The Longhorns rank second in defensive SP+, eighth in yards allowed per play and among the country’s best in red-zone touchdown rate—but the competition is about to intensify with three explosive offenses coming up next.

The crew previews Florida’s dangerous collection of playmakers and examines how Texas can contain Jadan Baugh while defending speedsters Vernell Brown, Eric Singleton and Dallas Wilson. Plus, they identify Bo Mascoe, Cade Phillips, Jelani McDonald and Kobe Black as the defensive backs who must create more turnovers as the Longhorns enter their most demanding offensive stretch of the season.
