The 2021 Texas football schedule is starting to shape up with the announcement that the Longhorns’ first road game at Arkansas will be played under the lights in Fayetteville. But does the nighttime slate make Game 2 of the 2021 season a trap game for Texas?

On this week’s episode of The Flagship Podcast, Horns247 columnist Chip Brown and managing editor Taylor Estes weigh in on the latest topics surrounding the Longhorns, and open the show discussing the concerns Texas fans should have with the Longhorns facing Arkansas on the road in Fayetteville for a prime-time matchup between to two former rivals. Chip recalls the last time he covered a Texas road game at Arkansas when the Longhorns barely escaped the Razorbacks in 2004 and why it’s tough for him to imagine this meeting being anything more than a dogfight. The Flagship then shifts focus to some personnel talk involving standout running back Bijan Robinson as he enters his second season with the Longhorns. Chip and Taylor give their thoughts on Robinson’s ceiling, which both hosts believe could lead to a 1,000-yard performance in his second year at Texas especially with Steve Sarkisian calling the offense.

After a short break, The Flagship returns with Love it or Leave it, with this week’s topics focused on if Chip is overreacting to the Longhorns’ first road game of the year, why Texas should not enter the transfer portal for a backup QB option and what to make of Texas basketball forward Jericho Sims’ decision to enter the NBA Draft without hiring an agent.

Catch all of that and much, much more on the mid-week episode of The Flagship Podcast.
