1. Bijan Robinson is a quarterback’s dream

Bijan Robinson is the epitome of a quarterback’s dream. He is there to take the pressure off of Casey Thompson or whoever is under center. Whenever you hand him the ball, it’s almost always an automatic first down. He is strong, agile, and can cut better than most.

Robinson had 100 yards and two touchdowns in the first quarter. He’s the only player in the game where you can say nothing but positive things. He finished the game 207 yards on 34 carries and two touchdowns with a long of 27 yards.

If Robinson doesn’t get the game ball, that’s insane because he is, well, insane and he’s the reason Texas won on Saturday.

The Longhorns will need those kinds of performances to win against the higher-caliber teams they will be playing soon. It was nothing but fun to watch him play and I hope to see more next week with Oklahoma. A true star that I only see shining brighter each week.
