Texas Takes Down #7 Ole Miss | The Full Squad Breaks Down Offense, Defense & Special Teams

No. 19 Texas takes down No. 7 Ole Miss, and the full 3rd & Longhorn squad breaks down offense, defense and special teams. Nick Shuley is joined by Jeremy Hills, Fozzy Whittaker, Rod Babers, Derrick Johnson, Alex Okafor and Mark Higgins to recap a win that kept the season on the rails.

On offense, the crew digs into Arch Manning playing loose and having fun again, Sark simplifying the game with the quick game and dialed-up deep shots, and a commitment to the run that produced 40-plus rushing attempts and over 200 yards. Raleek Brown’s cutback running gets its due, along with Arch using his legs early and the late-game drive of six straight runs that grabbed the momentum back.

On defense, the guys break down how Will Muschamp held one of the best quarterbacks in the country, Trinidad Chambliss, under 50 percent passing with three interceptions, using a three-high safety package and creative pressure without Colin Simmons. They also go deep on the improvised coverage behind Rasheem Biles’ interception before halftime and give Juice his flowers for playing every snap.

They finish with special teams, including Alex January’s blocked field goal and a strong night from the punting unit, plus a spirited Chambliss vs. Fernando Mendoza debate and a look at how long it has been since a mobile quarterback truly hurt this Texas defense.
