Texas RB Hollywood Smothers’ Tennessee Game Status Remains a Mystery Amid Injury Concerns
Is Hollywood Smothers gearing up to light up Neyland Stadium this Saturday, or will a pesky lower-body injury sideline Texas’ top rusher just when the stakes couldn’t be higher? Smothers, who has rapidly become the heartbeat of the Longhorns’ offense since his transfer from NC State, is hanging in the balance.

It’s one of those classic “what if” moments—because if Smothers can’t suit up, Steve Sarkisian’s offense will have to pivot, relying on backups like Raleek Brown or even fresh talent Derrek Cooper to fill the void.
