The Locked on Longhorns podcast kicks off the show discussing yet another injury to their wide receiver corp. Jordan Whittington is on the injury report once again after an abdominal injury surfaced following the Red River Showdown with Oklahoma last Saturday. With Whittington now down for the foreseeable future, what does the slot receiver position look like? Jake Smith reagravated his hamstring injury during warmups, so what could his status be for the  Baylor game?

On the topic of Baylor, we discussed the optics looking bad after the Bears hosted a homecoming event at their stadium. With the team under quarantine and football activities halted due to 42 positive COVID-19 cases, it doesn’t look good. If Baylor is able to field a team for Saturday, what are the roster requirements to play the game as scheduled?

The Longhorns have had their issues with the offensive line this year. Locked on Auburn’s Zac Blackerby joins the show to discuss the ‘familiar failures’ with the offensive line coach Herb Hand. Zac answers the question on if this is what the Tigers fanbase experienced during the two seasons in which Hand was in charge of the offensive line. Plus did Alabama use negative recruiting tactics to steal the Brockermeyer twins away from the Longhorns?

Plus we dive into five key stats in regards to the Longhorns through four games. What is the good, the bad and the ugly when it comes to this football team? Check out Monday’s Locked on Longhorns podcast for all of those answers.
