It's not like Charles Wright is a scrub. Matt Campbell offered him a scholarship to play at Iowa State, but luckily, he always wanted to be a Longhorn. As stated above, he was always spoken of being a "diamond in the rough" at Austin High. I would run and pass out of a 12 Personnel, he would get plenty of protection, and would have 2-4 reads. If UTSA wants to put 9 in the box and leave X and Whitt in 1 on 1 with a CB, that's Traylor's problem. Wright is perfectly capable of throwing to backs on swing passes, and hitting wide open receivers, which, if their CBs are slow, we will be seeing a lot. Would rather do this than loose a gimpy Card for 3-4 weeks. See if he can be well enough to go against TT.
It doesn't matter what defensive formation Texas runs, it's gonna be a long day to be a Roadrunner. DL is gonna eat. Multiple coverage sacks, and TFLs.
Texas 45
UTSA-6 (two field goals)
