Mapping out the ideal offseason for Texas football

Quinn Ewers and Steve Sarkisian need to be able to finish each other’s sentences this offseason.

The Texas Longhorns entered the offseason after their Alamo Bowl game against the Washington Huskies. Following the game, it’s easy to identify what must improve for Steve Sarkisian and his team.

The Longhorns felt Bijan Robinson’s absence in a struggling offensive effort. The Texas offensive line did not give much room for Keilan Robinson and Jonathon Brooks to make plays though Brooks’ long touchdown run helped make up for those offensive line struggles.

For the most part, the line has done a good job. Kyle Flood’s group has done particularly well in pass protection, which bodes well for Quinn Ewers next season.

Inconsistency in the passing game reared its head against the Huskies. This time, Quinn Ewers wasn’t the major culprit. Ewers improved dramatically in bowl practices. Now he and receivers look to get on the same page.

Let’s look at how Texas can target its weaknesses this offseason.
