UTEP vs. Texas: First look at the Horns

Here's a quick breakdown of the Texas Longhorns, and the problems that UTEP will face.

Stud QB’s

The biggest and constant knock Charlie Strong has received at Texas is lack of a suitable quarterback and offensive system.

Those two things were figured out in the spring and showed in Monday’s win against Notre Dame.

Starting quarterback Shane Buechele is a strong armed freshman who flashed way more poise than freshman jitters against Notre Dame. His downfield throwing abilities mixed with talented wideouts who can stretch the field will test UTEP’s secondary in ways NMSU could only dream of.
