3 UTSA players who could pose threat to Quinn Ewers' Texas in Week 3 ft. Owen McCown

After beating Michigan last week, Quinn Ewers' No. 2-ranked Texas Longhorns have a relatively easy matchup to look forward to in Week 3. They'll face unranked UTSA Roadrunners this Saturday at home inside Darrell K. Royal-Texas Memorial Stadium. While many observers expect it to be a comfortable win for the Longhorns, an upset is always around the corner.

UTSA is coming off a beatdown at the hands of Texas State. The Roadrunners won their first game against Kennesaw State. Meanwhile, the Longhorns have won two straight and will like to keep the momentum going on Saturday. However, they'll need to be wary of the following three players of the Roadrunners:

3 players who could bother Quinn Ewers' Texas Longhorns

#3. Willie McCoy

The biggest strength of UTSA's offense is its passing game. The school ranks 25th overall in the nation with 313.0 passing yards per game as compared to 116th overall in rushing. One of the favorite targets for quarterback Owen McCown is wide receiver Willie McCoy.

McCoy leads the team with 118 yards on seven receptions. The junior wideout didn't play much last season but is off to a great start this year.

#2. Jimmori Robinson

Senior linebacker Jimmori Robinson is in his fourth season and has been the leader's sack leader just two games deep in the season. Carrying on with the performance he had last year. Robinson has already sacked twice and has made four solo tackles.

Last year, he made 23 solo, assisted in 17 tackles, one forced fumble and 4.5 sacks.

#3. Owen McCown

Whether or not UTSA can deliver an upset against the championship-favorite Longhorns will largely depend on sophomore quarterback Owen McCown. In just two games played, McCown has achieved a career-high with 445 passing yards. He has also thrown for three touchdowns against zero interceptions but has been sacked five times already.

In his first full starting year, McCown could make a big blow by taking down Texas. If his offensive line just gives him enough time against the Longhorns secondary, there's a chance the former Colorado signal-caller can make good throws.
