Texas quarterback Sam Ehlinger is a smart young man.  The Longhorns quarterback led his team to another upset win over a higher ranked team in a bowl game.

Ehlinger took home the Offensive MVP Award in the 38-10 win over Utah in the Alamo Bowl on Tuesday night.  After last year’s big win over Georgia, Ehlinger said “Texas is back.”
