Rod Babers, Matt Butler and Jeff Howe tackle several Texas-related topics on this week's episode of "Longhorn Blitz," starting with Quinn Ewers. How close is the Longhorns' starting quarterback to being considered elite? Where is Ewers trending as he enters what's expected to be his final season on the Forty Acres?

The guys also continue to examine the Texas defense and how the arrival of Johnny Nansen might help Pete Kwiatkowski make up for some major personnel losses from last season.

Is it fair to expect Texas to be in an expanded College Football Playoff field annually under Steve Sarkisian? That's also part of the discussion on this week's show.
