In another sign of college football's transformation, Texas and USC have joined Nebraska in canceling their spring games.
"No, we're not going to have a spring game," Texas coach Sarkisian told Kay Adams on the "Up & Adams Show" podcast Thursday. "College football is changing right now, and we need to do a great job as coaches of adapting."
Sarkisian said in the last two years, Texas has played 30 games and had 25 players invited to the NFL combine. He said the wear and tear and turnover, with 21 mid-year recruits arriving recently, meant it was time to think differently.
