3 key takeaways from the state’s football scene -- and a glimpse at what’s to come next week.
Texas defensive back Jerrin Thompson reacts to giving up the winning touchdown during the second half of an NCAA college football game against Oklahoma at the Cotton Bowl in Dallas, Saturday, Oct. 7, 2023. Huddle up! Here’s a look back at this weekend on the gridiron, with three key takeaways from the state’s football scene -- and a glimpse at what’s to come next week.
Games at home against BYU and Kansas State and a road contest at TCU figure to be the toughest tests of that stretch, but they are winnable for the Longhorns. Even with the loss to Oklahoma, Texas has a marquee win on its schedule that arguably no other team in the nation has with its road triumph at Alabama, which is looking better after Alabama’s 5-1 record through six games.Despite early season hope of the Cowboys having the NFL’s defense and that they were a Super Bowl contender, harsh reality was dealt on Sunday night: The gap between the Cowboys and the best in the NFC remains sizeable.
San Francisco and Philadelphia, both unbeaten at 5-0, look to be the class of the NFC right now. It’s obvious the Cowboys aren’t close to San Francisco. We’ll see if Dallas can at least hang with the Eagles when the teams have two regular season meetings later in the year.It’s hard to ever call a loss to Alabama disappointing, but Saturday’s 26-20 setback at home to the Crimson Tide sure felt like it for Texas A&M.
