Starting Texas offensive lineman Trevor Goosby was carted off the field last night in the game against Ole Miss. This wasn’t some minor sideline bump, folks. Goosby was down on the ground for a good couple of minutes after going out with 4:48 left in the first quarter. You never want to see that, especially with a starting big man.
The First Quarter Shocker
The incident went down on October 24th. The game was still early, barely five minutes off the clock in the first quarter, and suddenly the entire rhythm of the Texas offense shifts. Losing a starting offensive lineman that early, in any game, is a gut punch. It immediately puts pressure on the depth chart. Backup Andrew Cojoe stepped in to replace Goosby, but the sight of a key player being helped onto a cart and then driven off the field is always a tough one to watch.
What’s Next for the Longhorns?
The immediate concern has to be Goosby’s health. For Texas, his absence in the lineup means they’ve got to reconfigure quickly. That offensive line is the engine of the offense, and losing a starter, even just for the rest of that game, demands an instant adjustment.
