The No. 1 Texas Longhorns (3-0) welcome in the Louisiana-Monroe Warhawks (2-0) on Saturday at DKR-Texas Memorial Stadium for a lop-sided college football matchup.
The Longhorns, sitting atop the national rankings with a flawless 3-0 start, have kicked off the season in impressive fashion. Their dominant 56-7 win over UTSA last week highlighted the potential ahead. Junior quarterback Quinn Ewers was sidelined with an abdominal injury in the second quarter, paving the way for redshirt freshman Arch Manning to step in. Manning took charge, delivering a standout performance with 223 yards and four touchdowns, commanding the game through to the final whistle.
ULM boasts a 2-0 record with victories over Jackson State (FCS) and UAB, showcasing strong performances in both outings. However, they have yet to face a team with the caliber of Texas. The road ahead is daunting, with conference games and a clash against Auburn still on the horizon, not to mention this week’s daunting trip to take on the nation’s top-ranked team. ULM understands the uphill battle they face and harbors no illusions about pulling off an upset in this matchup.
