Coach Talk

Texas Wildcats
Deploying a lineup that posted 141 points this past week... we consider that to be a job well done.
Kollin
Fortunately, Kollin, this week's problem isn't exactly rocket science. Going with Darrell Henderson Jr., Hayden Hurst, and Jalen Hurts in a fantasy matchup where your opponent tallied 141 points... let's aim to play with a full deck of cards next time.
