Texas Fans Want Cruz To Skip Georgia Game: Is It Really That Simple?
The hype for the Texas Longhorns' matchup against the reigning national champions, the Georgia Bulldogs, is through the roof. But there's a twist: some fans are urging Quinn Ewers to sit this one out.
Now, before you go thinking these fans are just Texas haters, let's be clear - they want Ewers to stay healthy. Ewers, the highly-touted quarterback, is still recovering from a shoulder injury. While he's cleared to play, some Longhorn faithful are saying, "Dude, just rest up!"
Here's the thing: It's a tough call. Ewers wants to play, and Texas needs him on the field to have a shot against Georgia. But a relapse would be a nightmare scenario.
The fans' argument is based on practicality. Georgia is a tough matchup even with a healthy Ewers. This game, they say, is more about preparing for the rest of the season.
It's understandable why fans feel this way. Texas has big ambitions this year. Ewers' health is paramount to those ambitions.
This isn't just about one game. Texas has a long season ahead, and Ewers' health is the biggest factor in their success.
Ultimately, the decision rests on the shoulders of Ewers and the Texas coaching staff. But the fans' message is clear: They want Ewers to be ready for the long haul.
And hey, you know what? I kind of get it. No one wants to see a star player get hurt in a game that's essentially a "tune-up" for the rest of the season. Texas needs to make the right call, and make sure Ewers is good to go for the whole season.
