Texas has had their share of special runningbacks at the 40 acres over the years. Heisman trophy winners like Earl Campbell and Ricky Williams are the first to come to mind, but even players like Priest Holmes and Jamaal Charles are part of the reason that many (mostly in Austin) have dubbed The University of Texas (Running Back U). One player whose name will forever be etched in stone at the 40 is Bijan Robinson who has been dynamic since the day he came to Texas from Arizona. He grew up idolizing Reggie Bush, and when you watch him you see a lot of Reggie in his game. He has the power and speed combo which makes great runningbacks, but his ability to cut on a dime, a devastating spin move, and soft hands out of the backfield make him the most dangerous running back in America. Does Bijan Robinson have a chance to win the Heisman trophy this year? Our resident expert, John Garcia Jr. of Sports Illustrated stops by to discuss. Let's transition to the wide receiver position where we have seen the likes of Roy Williams, Limas Sweed, Jordan Shipley and company. Xavier Worthy, freshman All-American, is looking to add his name to that class. Although he introduced himself to the world against the Oklahoma Sooners, taking the very first offensive play of the game to the house, Texas fans saw they had a special playmaker in Worthy from the very first game of the schedule. Worthy had 981 yards last year and 12 touchdowns, and asserted himself as one of the best playmakers in the country. Coming into this year, Xavier Worthy is one of the wide receivers that is on the Biletnikoff watch, the award given to the best receiver in the country. Does X have a shot at the award? Regardless of they win them or not, you can expect fireworks from two of the best offensive players in the country in Bijan Robinson and Xavier Worthy. How will having these playmakers help Quinn Ewers along with his development? Click play to find out. Hook Em
