Texas Longhorns running back Hollywood Smothers has been ruled out for the upcoming game against Missouri, while five other players are listed as questionable, according to a report from the Houston Chronicle.

Smothers, who wears No. 2, appeared in the Red River Rivalry against the Oklahoma Sooners in Dallas on October 10, 2026, where he received a handoff from quarterback Arch Manning (No. 16) in the second quarter. The injury news comes as Texas prepares for its matchup with Missouri.

The Longhorns will be without a key contributor in the backfield, and the status of five additional players remains uncertain heading into the contest.
