With that, Steve Sarkisian addressed Blue's status during his press conference on Monday. He said that he was alright as he was out with the Longhorns earlier today.

"I think Blue is good, you know," said Sarkisian. "Like I said, he went with us today and worked this morning."

Blue, Texas' second-leading rusher this fall, had 14 carries for 85 yards this weekend in the 20-10 win at . While he didn't score, those were team-highs on the day while being the second-most touches and yardage for him over these nine games of his junior season. He also caught three passes for a total of 19 yards against the 'Hogs .

On the year, Blue has 90 rushes for 459 yards, good for 51 per game and 5.1 a carry, for five touchdowns. The carries and rushing yards are second on the offense behind only Quintrevion Wisner while the five scores are a team-high for the Longhorns.
