Bijan Robinson is next big RB in Big 12

The only time Texas seemed to be struggling on offense was when Robinson wasn’t on the field. Robinson filled up the stat sheet, to the tune of 183 rushing yards and a touchdown.

He also added two receiving touchdowns and 39 yards. He accumulated all of those stats on just 12 touches of the football.

It was clear he has become a huge vocal point of the offense and should plenty of more touches in 2021. This amount of success isn’t new to Robinson, considering his high school records. Robinson had three straight seasons of 2,000 rushing yards in grade school.

With many new faces making impressive plays, the best one came from Robinson. The sky is the limit for the true freshman, who had a night to remember.
