Texas coach Steve Sarkisian said Monday that Casey Thompson will replace Hudson Card as the Longhorns' starting quarterback.
Card, who started the first two games, was 8-of-15 for 61 yards and was sacked three times in the Longhorns' 40-21 loss to Arkansas. Thompson, who also played in the second half against Louisiana, came in and was 5-of-8 for 57 yards and also rushed 7 times for 44 yards and two touchdowns.
"I thought Hudson was all antsy in the pocket," Sarkisian said, saying Card moved around too much. "We weren't great protecting him early on in the game, but I thought he was a little antsy and we missed some opportunities.
