FAYETTEVILLE — Holders on football teams usually are anonymous.
“Part of being a holder, no one really recognizes you unless you screw up,” Hudson Card, the No. 1 holder for the Texas Longhorns, told reporters Monday.

Oh yeah, Card’s other job for the Longhorns is being their starting quarterback, and he got plenty of attention in his debut in that role Saturday.
It wasn’t a perfect performance for Card against Louisiana-Lafayette. His first two passes fell incomplete and Texas had to punt.
But then Card settled into his new role, and the Longhorns won 38-18 over the No.
