Right on Rangers LIVE!

Right on Rangers LIVE!

Right on Rangers is where Rangers fans ride the season in real time. The LIVE shows are the heartbeat. Big wins, ugly losses, bullpen chaos, breakout heaters, trade rumors, roster debates, and the takes that come with actually caring about this team. Sometimes those takes get hot. That’s part of watching 162 with people who are invested. But the reaction still has receipts. We use stats, film, history, roster context, and what’s happening on the field to figure out what the game actually revealed. Between LIVE shows, we go deeper on the players, decisions, stories, and moments shaping Texas baseball. Rangers first, always. When the calendar turns, the Cowboys, Longhorns, Mavericks, and the biggest Texas sports stories get their run too. If you want sterile box-score recaps, this probably isn’t your show. If you want passionate Rangers talk with actual baseball underneath it, welcome in.

Dallas ran the ball 38 times in Philadelphia. Javonte Williams rushed for 155 yards, Dak Prescott threw three touchdown passes, and the Cowboys beat the Eagles 38–21.

The LIVE begins before the final whistle, with DeMarvion Overshown's interception and Javonte's late touchdown. From there, the discussion turns to Brian Schottenheimer's play-calling, the offensive line, Dallas's front-office decisions at running back, and how m...

Texas survived Ole Miss 34–27 after letting a 21-point lead disappear, and Austin was live for the wild fourth-quarter finish. Raleek Brown and Michael Terry III rescued the offense down the stretch, but Arch Manning's three turnovers raise bigger questions about his execution and Steve Sarkisian's development of the quarterback.

Austin digs into another scoreless third quarter, a shaky special-teams performance, and 14 penalt...

The Rangers cannot build their 2027 roster around the hope that every struggling player suddenly bounces back.

With Milwaukee and Tampa Bay headed to the World Series, Austin examines how Chris Young and Texas keep spending and developing without getting the results they need. He argues that difficult personnel decisions are overdue, particularly with Evan Carter, Wyatt Langford, and the club's young pitching. There's also Sebastian...

Dallas drops to 2–4 after a 23–13 loss at Lambeau, even as Philadelphia and the Giants both stumble.

Austin digs into Dak Prescott's two interceptions, why Jordan Love looked sharper, and an offense that threw 54 passes while running only 15 times. He also challenges the idea that 23 points allowed means Dallas played good defense. Green Bay kept extending drives on third down and dropped chances to make the score uglier...

Texas led Florida 17-3 and lost 27-24 after the Gators scored 24 unanswered points. The LIVE begins inside the final two minutes, then gets into why Texas struggled to sustain offense and why Florida deserves credit for the comeback.

Arch Manning's decisions and future, Steve Sarkisian's playcalling, protection problems and Cam Coleman's limited opportunities all get a hard look. The discussion also weighs whether Texas needs an off...

Four Rangers are Gold Glove finalists, but Texas still has difficult questions about developing hitters and turning talent into runs.

Austin examines the cases for Ezequiel Duran, Evan Carter, Wyatt Langford and Jacob deGrom before explaining why he would move on from hitting coach Justin Viele. The conversation moves to Josh Jung versus Duran, possible fits such as Luis Arráez and Ian Happ, and the catching situation for 2027.

Texas outgained Oklahoma 382-238 and still lost the Red River Rivalry, 27-24.

The Sooners got 14 points from a blocked punt and Peyton Bowen's pick-six. Arch Manning threw three touchdowns and two interceptions, and the Longhorns finished 3-for-14 on third down. Austin gets into the officiating calls that frustrated Texas fans, why he won't make excuses for the loss, and how much responsibility belongs to Arch and Steve Sarkisian.

Tampa Bay came into Arlington 0-4 and left with a 24-16 win after running all over Dallas.

Bucky Irving piled up 165 rushing yards, the Buccaneers totaled 241, and the Cowboys committed three turnovers. But the most frustrating moments came late: DaRon Bland dropped a potential pick-six, the final interception came off Jake Ferguson's hands, and the debate over how much blame Dak Prescott deserves took over the postgame conversation...

The Rangers' 2027 roster reset is starting to look like a series of uncomfortable decisions.

Austin weighs Joc Pederson's option, Jake Burger's future, the lineup's platoon problem, and whether Ezequiel Duran should stay a superutility player. He also digs into Evan Carter, Wyatt Langford, Sebastian Walcott, the limits on moving established veterans, and how $113 million in scheduled salaries for four players shapes the choices ahea...

Dallas had to win this one twice.

The Cowboys erased a 23-13 deficit, watched Houston retake the lead with 2:26 left, then got the final answer from Dak Prescott and CeeDee Lamb in a 34-30 road win. Austin breaks down CeeDee’s career-high 17 catches, Javonte Williams’ three-touchdown day, and why Dak’s second half mattered far more than his one passing touchdown suggests.

The show also digs into the explosive-play p...

Chris Young has laid out the traits he wants in the next Rangers roster. Now Texas has to prove those words mean something.

Austin digs into what younger, more athletic and more dynamic should look like in real roster decisions, why Ezequiel Duran may be the clearest prototype, and how health questions around Corey Seager and Josh Jung complicate the roster reset. The show also gets into deGrom and Eovaldi, rotation depth, Walcott/J...

Game 162 made the season final. The problems were months old. Texas lost 6-4 to Minnesota, finished 80-82 and watched Houston take the AL West at 81-81 after a season full of chances the Rangers never consistently cashed.

Austin looks back at the urgency problem that followed this club all year, the decision to pull MacKenzie Gore in the finale, and the accountability facing Chris Young and Skip Schumaker. Then the conversation turn...

Dallas rallied from 24-13, drove 96 yards to take a fourth-quarter lead, tied Baltimore with 10 seconds left and still lost 34-31 on Tyler Loop’s 56-yard field goal.

Austin breaks down why the ending belongs more to coaching, special teams and a defense that couldn’t finish than to Dak Prescott, who repeatedly put the Cowboys in position to win without turning it over. The show also gets into Javonte Williams’ 98-y...

Texas answered Friday's 10-2 disaster with a 6-2 win over Minnesota that keeps the AL West race alive for Game 162. The Rangers fell behind first, then scored four in the second and kept adding as Danny Jansen, Evan Carter and Alejandro Osuna helped the bottom of the order drive a 13-hit afternoon.

Austin gets into why that distributed production mattered, whether Osuna has earned more at-bats with the season on the line, and why Na...

Texas survived its first true road test with a 20-17 win at Tennessee, and the defense did far more than travel. The Longhorns held the Vols to 221 yards and 2.9 yards per play, piled up 10 sacks, and survived a late onside-kick scare after Texas had already committed 11 penalties for 115 yards.

Austin gets into why the defense has become the most trustworthy part of this team, what Arch Manning's efficient-but-incomplete afternoon ...

Texas handed Jacob deGrom a 2-0 lead in Minnesota and watched the game collapse anyway. deGrom allowed eight earned runs in four innings, the Rangers never scored after the first, and Josh Jung suffered a broken bone in his right hand.

Texas stopped a three-game slide with a 3-1 win over New York in the final home game, but Austin isn't treating three runs and seven hits like an offensive breakthrough. Josh Jung went 3-for-3 with a homer, Kumar Rocker delivered five steady innings, Corey Seager added insurance, and the bullpen allowed one baserunner over four scoreless frames.

Austin gets into why that combination may be Texas' survival formula for the final weeke...

Marcus Semien returned to Arlington and broke a 2-2 tie with an eighth-inning homer, then Brett Baty's grand slam finished a 7-2 Mets win that dropped Texas to 78-80. Houston's extra-inning loss kept the Rangers tied atop the AL West, but Houston owns the tiebreaker, so Texas still needs the better finish.

MacKenzie Gore gave Texas five innings and a winnable game. The Rangers answered with three hits, 15 strikeouts and the kind of sloppy fundamental baseball Austin argues a team fighting for October cannot afford.

Texas beat UTSA 30-6 without needing Arch Manning to carry the afternoon, and that may be the more interesting takeaway than another quarterback grade. Through three games, the Longhorns have already won with three different primary engines: offensive firepower, a fourth-quarter comeback, and complementary football built around defense, the run game and Gianni Spetic.

Austin gets into whether that versatility is becoming a real stre...
