Summary
No. 1 Texas enters Saturday's Red River Rivalry at 4-0, and former quarterback Colt McCoy said the Longhorns have "all the makings" of a team that can win the national championship.
McCoy said the roster may be the program's most talented in years, arguing Texas is strong on both sides of the ball and well coached enough to avoid being outmatched.
The endorsement comes before a rivalry McCoy called special but dangerous, saying even the country's best team can stumble in Dallas if it is off its game that day.
Texas has won three of the last four meetings after previously losing 10 of 13, while McCoy went 3-1 against Oklahoma during his own Longhorns career.
