Is Texas coach Tom Herman already approaching hot seat territory?

Tim Cowlishaw, sports columnist for SportsDayDFW.com and The Dallas Morning News, author of Drunk on Sports and panelist on ESPN's "Around the Horn," answered your questions about the Cowboys, Rangers, Mavericks, Stars and college sports in a recent mailbag. Here are some highlights.

Question: Is Tom Herman approaching "hot seat" territory? Is he already there?

Cowlishaw: He will be on it very quickly. Texas is actually a 3 1/2-point favorite over USC which seems silly given how poorly the Longhorns have played, but the Trojans could do nothing last week in a 17-3 loss to Stanford.
