5 Important Questions facing Texas Programs - Week 3
Mike Elko's Texas A&M Aggies hope to break a road losing streak; TCU Horned Frogs can reach contender status with win over UCF; Houston, Rice in Bayou Bucket
Only four of the 13 FBS teams that call Texas home remain undefeated after Week 2. Those squads combined to go 6-7 over the weekend with Baylor, Texas Tech, SMU, UTSA, and Sam Houston picking up their first losses of the season. The bright spots were Texas knocking out Michigan in the Big House and Texas State rolling past rival UTSA at home. Those two programs look like our only shot at conference titles in 2024.
The Week 3 slate looks light, at least on paper. Often, those weekends wind up providing the best theatre. Twelve of the 13 teams are in action with SMU receiving an early idle Saturday after starting the season in Week 0 at Nevada. With only two data points so far this season, Week 3 serves as an opportunity to see what these teams are in 2024.
