Definitely not going to help. Alabama is going to give them a taste of moving to the SEC next month.

Texas lost two key players to season-ending injuries during Saturday's scrimmage, Longhorns coach Steve Sarkisian said Monday.

Fifth-year offensive lineman Junior Angilau, who has started 34 games for the Longhorns over the past three seasons, and wide receiver Isaiah Neyor, a newcomer who transferred from Wyoming, both suffered ACL injuries, according to Sarkisian.

Both were expected to be major contributors this season. Angilau is Texas' most experienced offensive lineman, a position where the Longhorns have struggled in recent years. Neyor had 44 catches for 878 yards and 12 touchdowns last year at Wyoming and was expected to take some focus off sophomore Xavier Worthy, who was a breakout star as a freshman last season.

Neyor's loss is compounded by the suspension of Alabama transfer Agiye Hall last week. Hall, who was removed from the roster at Alabama for a violation of team rules, transferred to Texas in April and was arrested last week for criminal mischief after police said he used a tire iron to damage a parking boot that was placed on his car.
