Texas vs ULM Game Preview
Why ULM Will Win

QB Chandler Rogers can do a little of everything, Boogie Knight and the receivers are strong, and there’s just enough of a defensive front 3/4 to hold up at times.

All of the attention will be on QB Quinn Ewers, RB Bijan Robinson, and all of the other parts, but this game is about the defensive side. Can the Longhorns stop the run? Can the pass rush be generated from somewhere?
At least for this week, yes and yes.

Texas will do whatever it wants.
ULM will come up with a few scoring drives, but the Longhorns will load up fast and won’t let up. At least for this week, Texas will be “back” to what the media and fans think it could be.
The Texas depth will get a chance to stretch its legs midway through the third quarter.
