September 3, 2024 - Texas dominates Colorado State

The Longhorn Republic

The No. 4 Texas Longhorns did what championship-contending teams should do to outmatched opponents and jumped all over the Colorado State Rams to a lopsided victory.

Perhaps the most impressive part about the game is that there wasn't a truly dominant performance from one player. Quarterback Quinn Ewers turned in another day at the office, spreading the ball around to multiple receivers en route to an early exit. Jaydon Blue got the start at running back and ended his day early with the game in-hand as Texas looks to protect the depth in that room.

The defense shut down the Rams' air raid attack, turning them over two times en-route to the season-opening shut out. Fans hope that same intensity travels with them north as they prepare for the unfriendly confines of Ann Arbor, Mich.
