Ahead of Texas' battle with Michigan, Steve Sarkisian told 'The Herd' what separates the 2024 Longhorns from last year's CFP squad and shared his message to Quinn Ewers this offseason.
When No. 3 Texas heads to Ann Arbor to take on No. 10 Michigan on Saturday , the Longhorns hope to solidify themselves as national championship contenders and make a huge step toward reaching the College Football Playoff for the second straight season. Texas head coach Steve Sarkisian believes he has the roster equipped to do that, as he told Colin Cowherd during an appearance Wednesday on 'The Herd.
It was going to take Quinn stepping up into that leadership role that Jordan Whittington, Jaylan Ford and those guys have moved on from. 'That's been our focus and he's done a tremendous job of that.' Ewers' leadership was on display in Texas' 52-0 win over Colorado State in its season opener. Ewers threw for 260 yards, three touchdowns and an interception in the win, with his day ending in the third quarter.
