A bad outing for No. 15 ranked Texas football and new head coach Steve Sarkisian didn’t see too many positives emerge coming out of the weekend. One of the lone positives from this humbling loss for Texas at the hands of the longtime rival Arkansas Razorbacks and head coach Sam Pittman was the play of redshirt junior quarterback Casey Thompson coming on in relief of sophomore Hudson Card.
Thompson looked good for Sark and the Longhorns in the loss to Arkansas. But it was all for naught by the time that Sark had pulled Card for Thompson in the second half, as Texas was already down by a few possessions with nearly no momentum on their side.
