The game at the Big House is the first regular-season matchup of the two historic programs, and the only top-10 matchup of the week.
Texas wide receiver Isaiah Bond, center, runs against Colorado State after a catch during the first half of an NCAA college football game in Austin, Texas, Saturday, Aug. 31, 2024.ended Alabama’s long home winning streak last season with Quinn Ewers throwing to big and fast receivers who are now in the NFL.
A few days later, Bolden committed from Oregon State, where he was the Beavers’ top receiver. He is also the Longhorns No. 1 punt returner, and set up Golden’s second touchdown last week with a 35-yard return.Texas coach Steve Sarkisian praised all three, and Ewers’ leadership in spring practice and summer workouts, for the seamless transition within the offense.
As a group, the newcomers are on the small side. Golden is the biggest at 6-foot, 195 pounds. But all bring top-level speed that can stretch a defense and burn up chunks of yards in the blink of an eye. Sarkisian’s offense thrives on personnel mismatches in open space.“They’re all fast. They’re all playmakers,” Michigan coach Sherrone Moore said. “The big thing that stands out is their speed, their ability to separate.
“ we had to keep guys on the field that were probably too tired to play at a really optimal level. Now we have a really good rotation and they’ve earned our trust. I’m very comfortable with those six guys,” Sarkisian said.
