EXCLUSIVE: Texas Ex Jamaal Charles reflects on what the Red Rivalry game means to him
During his college career, Charles played in the Red River Rivalry game three times. With the Texas native leading the way out of the backfield, the Longhorns went 2-1. While he always managed to shine during one of the biggest games, he was a human highlight reel regardless of the opponent.
Texas started the season at or near the top of most polls, but season prospects are dropping on the heels of two losses.
The floor has fallen out from underneath Texas and Arch Manning not so much because of poor play, a clear failure, but because neither has lived up to national expectations, a mortal sin. Heaven help those hoisted upon pedestals.
