Safety Derek Williams Jr. to miss game

ULM scored 30 points in a season-opening victory over Football Championship Series opponent Jackson State and then pounded Trent Dilfer’s UAB team 32-6 in Week 2. The Warhawks have done that by keeping things simple for Booty, who transferred in the offseason from Oklahoma after not throwing a pass in two seasons as a Sooner.

DEFENSE CONTINUES DOMINANCE
Watch some film and the Warhawks’ effort jumps off the screen. But so does a lack of playmaking at receiver and in the secondary, which doesn’t bode well against the Longhorns.
Cedric Golden, Columnist
Texas 62, ULM 7
ARCH SUPPORT
No Quinn, no problem. Even without QB1, the Longhorns are still the best team in the country. Arch Manning won’t be asked to go above and beyond because he has a great supporting cast. The Horns will score another defensive touchdown and roar into SEC play with a gang of momentum.
Danny Davis, Texas beat writer
SEC AWAITS – THANFKULLY
The Longhorns haven’t been challenged much during nonconference play and that won’t change this week against ULM. Expect Texas to put this one away in the first half, and then the countdown to the start of SEC play can begin.
David Eckert, Texas insider
Texas 55, ULM 3
WINNING UGLY, KIND OF
Regularly one of the worst programs in the FBS, ULM seems a level above that this season under new coach Bryant Vincent, who picked up a resounding win in Week 2 over a UAB team he used to coach. Still, this is not a Group of Five program at a stage where it can hope to compete with Texas’ talent. This one will be ugly.
