Bijan Robinson had a legendary career at Texas. The running back finished 4th in school history and career rushing yards and ended up being a 1st-round pick by the Atlanta Falcons in the 2023 NFL Draft.
Texas is now in the SEC and is playing in the SEC Championship Game against Georgia on Saturday. Robinson returned to narrate a hype video for the Longhorns ahead of their big game.
“It doesn’t matter the city, what state, the stadium, or conference, the standard is the standard,” said Robinson. “That’s what we uphold. It’s the way we train. It’s how we practice and how we play.”
While Robinson talks, the video shows highlights from the RB’s legendary career at Texas as well as highlights from the current team.
“When you put the mission over everything, anything is possible,” Robinson said. “This isn’t about revenge, it’s about respect. We know it’s earned, never given.”
The revenge line refers to the fact that the Longhorns lost the first matchup with Georgia this season. Back in October, the Bulldogs went to Austin and escaped with a 30-15 victory. That game was the only loss on Texas’ schedule and was the only game in which the team looked overmatched.
“Atlanta’s next up on our mission and we’re not done yet,” explained the school legend. “Hook ‘Em.”
