Quarterback

Every Texas fan knows who Taysom Hill is. How could you not? Hill ran wild through the Longhorn defense, rushing for 259 yards and three touchdowns last year. He had scoring runs of 68, 26 and 20 yards. All this was done on a bad knee, too. Hill finished the season with more than 4,200 yards and 29 touchdowns scored.

Texas will want to force Hill to beat them through the air. The quarterback completed just 53 percent of his passes last season. Against Texas, Hill was 9-26 for 129 yards and an interception. It is imperative that the defense keeps Hill in the pocket and forces him to make plays with his arm.
