In a matchup between two of the most electric young running backs in college football, Texas Longhorns sophomore Bijan Robinson got the better of TCU Horned Frogs sophomore Zach Evans, starting fast and finishing strong in a 32-27 victory by the Longhorns in Fort Worth on Saturday.
The first win for Texas at Amon Carter Stadium since 2013 was keyed by Robinson, who proved himself the best player on the field in taking a career-high 35 carries for a career-high 216 yards. It was the first 200-yard performance by a Longhorns running back since D’Onta Foreman in 2015 and moved Texas to 7-0 when Robinson rushes for 100 or more yards.
