In the part of the timeline of college football’s offseason formally known as “list season”, there’s a lot of predictions and takes coming down on the Forty Acres for an important fall ahead. The Texas football program and new head coach Steve Sarkisian are preparing for a season that could have a lot of potential.
Texas has some budding stars on each side of the ball to push this team forward in 2021. But there’s nothing quite like the star presence that the Longhorns have in sophomore running back Bijan Robinson this year. Sark and the Longhorns could have a dominant ground game in the Big 12 led by the duo of Robinson and junior running back Roschon Johnson.
Robinson was one of the hottest running backs in the entire country to finish off last season. In the last two games of his true freshman campaign, he averaged more than 18 yards per carry and 18 yards per touch.
The media hype is already building around Bijan and with good reason. He was solid for the Longhorns down the stretch and looks to be one of the Big 12’s brightest stars in his sophomore season.
Bijan Robinson a Heisman winner for Texas football in 2021?
A piece from CBS Sports this week gave some predictions for the looming 2021 college football season as we’re approaching the 100-day mark ahead of kickoff of the first weekend of game action. And one of the bold predictions mentioned in this piece ahead of the 2021 season was picking Bijan as the Heisman Trophy winner.
Here’s more on what this piece from CBS Sports had to say on the matter of picking Bijan to win the Heisman this year.
Maybe the Heisman electorate has also gotten tired of the quarterback run, and Alabama wide receiver DeVonta Smith’s 2020 win was a turning point in the way voters think about contenders. Smith matched statistical excellence with the intangible recognition that he was simply the most outstanding player on the field. Robinson has the potential to match that profile with his explosiveness leading to highlight-worthy plays and the all-purpose nature of how he could be used in Texas’ offense basically guarantees yards and touchdowns both on the ground and through the air.
The impact that the new Sark scheme will have on the Texas offense as a whole, and specifically for Bijan, is a big reason why there’s so much hype for this team. Sark regularly helped to produce 1,000-yard rushers during his time as the Alabama Crimson Tide offensive coordinator, and in numerous previous roles that he held at the college level.
If Bijan was able to go over 700 rushing yards last year in a limited workload with well under 100 carries, getting over the 1,000-yard mark definitely isn’t out of the question this fall. And he should be one of the more efficient and electric rushers in the Power Five.
Texas finished up last season with a record of 7-3 (5-3 Big 12) under the direction of former head coach Tom Herman. Sark took over as the next Texas head coach in the place of Herman back on Jan. 2.
