Just when it looked like Texas Longhorns freshman running back Keaontay Ingram was set to take control of the position after his first 100-yard game against the Baylor Bears back in October, it’s been graduate transfer Tre Watson who has emerged in recent weeks.
Throughout the early part of the season, Watson was reliable as the starter — he averaged between 3.9 and 4.3 yards per carry in each of the first four games — but as he’s gotten further and further away from his season-ending ACL injury last season, he’s gotten better and better.
