The two look at games from the Longhorns’ 2023 season against Houston, BYU, Kansas State, and Oklahoma State to assess what makes Taaffe a Power Conference starter. Taaffe recorded 48 tackles with 2.5 tackles for loss and three interceptions during the 2023 season and was one of the main reasons why the Longhorns made a run to the Big 12 Championship.
