Connor Williams and Patrick Vahe were playing "Friday Night Lights" football this time last year in Texas. In 11 days -- they will make up 40% of the starting Texas offensive line -- as they play their first-ever college football game against Notre Dame.
At least two other freshmen -- I refuse to use the term "true freshmen" -- are also expecting to line-up first for the Longhorns against our Fighting Irish.
