The result of the non-conference slate got much sweeter for the Texas Longhorns football program by handily defeating the No. 22 ranked USC Trojans in Week 3. Following a challenging start to the 2018 regular season to say the least, it did not take too long for this Tom Herman coached squad to get back on track more similar to what we saw from them at the end of last season.
This weekend, the Big 12 opener against the TCU Horned Frogs will be a telling sign as to where the Horns are at right now. However, a determining factor for the Horns week in and week out is going to be its starting quarterback, sophomore Sam Ehlinger.
