several former Horns doing well for themselves
Jackson began his career as a quarterback at Texas, developed into a dynamic back at Utah and is now playing his best football yet for the Razorbacks. The 6-foot-2, 233-pound redshirt senior has surpassed 100 rushing yards in every game this season and leads the SEC in yards from scrimmage with 446 yards and 6 touchdowns. Jackson is averaging a ridiculous 8.5 yards per carry this season. Among backs with more than 30 carries, only Boise State's
Ashton Jeanty has been more efficient.
WR: Isaiah Neyor, Nebraska (via Texas)
Neyor was one of the best wideouts in the Mountain West at Wyoming in 2021 and has put in a ton of hard work to get back to being a difference-maker after suffering a torn ACL at Texas in 2022. He's become a favorite target for freshman phenom
Dylan Raiola with 12 catches for 187 yards and two touchdowns and has provided a big boost for the Huskers' passing attack during their 3-0 start and rise into the AP top 25.
The former All-SEC defender dealt with several injury setbacks during his four seasons at Arkansas and one season at Texas but is finally healthy and thriving again. Catalon has grabbed three interceptions in three games at UNLV, including a 36-yard pick-six, and brings invaluable leadership to a Rebels squad that's now in the hunt for a College Football Playoff bid after upset wins over Kansas and Houston.
First-year Nevada coach Jeff Choate knew what he was getting in Crawford after their time together at Texas: a true Swiss Army knife of a talent. The fifth-year senior has 22 tackles and three pass breakups as their starting free safety, excels on special teams coverage, returns kicks and has even played a few snaps on offense for the Wolf Pack.
