QB Gilbert had clear path to take over at Texas

NCAA Football Betting Lines

09/02/2010 -

AUSTIN, Texas (AP) -Garrett Gilbert has hardly played since high school and in his only meaningful college game, he threw four interceptions as Texas lost the national championship to Alabama.

When Gilbert takes the field Saturday to lead No. 5 Texas against Rice, he will be replacing a quarterback who won an NCAA-record 45 games as a starter. And he'll do it with the full faith and confidence of Longhorns coaches and fans who believe he's the guy to keep them chasing national titles.

Chalk it up to his NFL family pedigree, a standout high school career and maybe that two-touchdown performance against the Crimson Tide back in January.

Coach Mack Brown's message to the quarterback following Colt McCoy?

Win, Brown says. That's all that matters.Copyright © 2005 The Associated Press. All rights reserved. The information contained in the AP News report may not be published, broadcast, rewritten or redistributed without the prior written authority of The Associated Press.
