The Flagship: How Bijan Robinson’s season-ending injury impacts Texas’ final two games

The blows keep coming for the Longhorns. As if the five-game losing streak and a loss to former one-win Kansas wasn't tough enough, Texas will now play the final two games of the regular season schedule without two crucial members of the Longhorns' starting lineup. The Flagship Podcast kicks off the week with a loaded show as Horns247 columnist Chip Brown and managing editor Taylor Estes deliver the latest news surrounding the Longhorns, which starts with the season-ending injuries to sophomore RB Bijan Robinson and senior CB Josh Thompson. The Flagship weighs in on the injured starters impact on the Texas offense and defense and what that could mean for the Longhorns, who have to win the last two games of the season in order to become bowl eligible. Chip and Taylor also preview Saturday's road game against the Mountaineers with both teams still in the hunt for bowl eligibility and needing to win-out in order to see the post season. The Flagship shifts focus to some Texas basketball talk and what to make of the men's loss to No. 1 Gonzaga and women's upset over defending national champion Stanford over the weekend. After a quick break, The Flagship returns with our 'Love it or leave it' segment, with this week's topics focused on how the Longhorns will finish the regular season without Robinson and Thompson, what to make of Casey Thompson and the quarterback position and the level of concern over the Longhorns being out-scored 44-22 in the paint against the Zags.
