Texas Rules Out Three Players vs. UTSA
AUSTIN — The Texas Longhorns will be without three notable players for tonight’s matchup at home against the UTSA Roadrunners.
The team announced approximately an hour prior to kickoff that running back Jaydon Blue (ankle) defensive lineman Aaron Bryant (knee) and defensive back Jelani McDonald (ankle) will all be out for the game.
Blue exited briefly during the first half of last week’s 31-12 win over Michigan but returned before scoring the team’s final touchdown of the game in the third quarter.
The Longhorns have already lost Cedric Baxter and Christian Clark to season-ending injuries. Texas freshman running back Jerrick Gibson currently leads the team in rushing yards (103) through two games, and has clearly given the coaching staff enough confidence to handle the reins in the backfield to close out non-conference play.
“We have the utmost confidence in Jerrick,” Texas coach Steve Sarkisian said. “I thought him getting, I think it was 10 carries last week or so, was big for him, in just his own confidence. … I don’t exactly know when he’s going to get into the game, but I know he’ll play this Saturday.”
In his collegiate debut against Colorado State last week, Gibson finished with 10 carries for 67 yards and a score. Against Michigan, he had 10 carries for 36 yards and a touchdown. He’s now got two touchdowns in his first two career collegiate games.

8 wild new foods coming to the State Fair of Texas
It’s said that everything is bigger in Texas, and that apparently includes the creative minds behind the new food items coming to the State Fair of Texas.
“The State Fair of Texas attracts millions of people from all over the globe each year, many making a special trip just to try the food,” Taylor Pulfer, communications director at the State Fair of Texas, told Fox News Digital via email.
“We pride ourselves on having something for everyone here at the State Fair of Texas, and our team continually works to ensure our concessionaires and food offerings reflect the diverse melting pot that Texans make up,” she said.

“Our hope is that by continuing to add new flavors to the fair, fairgoers will be introduced to new cuisines that they may not have otherwise branched out to try.”
Here’s a look at some of the foods that will be available when the State Fair of Texas opens later this month (it opens Sept. 27 and runs through Oct. 20).
1. Candied pork belly bacon bites
Perfect for the pork lover, the candied pork belly bacon bites are essentially bacon-wrapped-bacon that is then candied.
This twist on a fair treat is served on a stick, according to the State Fair of Texas, and is available at The Cavalcade.
2. Hot Cheetos Korean corn dog
Unlike a traditional corn dog, this Korean-style corn dog is half hot dog, half mozzarella cheese, according to the State Fair of Texas.

The hot dog-and-cheese combo is “battered with wheat and rice flour, coated with panko breadcrumbs and deep-fried for an extra crispy crunch,” its website said.
After frying, the corn dog is then coated in spicy mayo and topped with hot Cheetos crumbs.
3. Texas BBQ rib deviled eggs
Another Texas twist on a classic food, the Texas BBQ rib deviled eggs melds together barbecue and deviled eggs.
“With the creamy, savory traditional deviled egg filling you know and love, this treat is topped with crisp coleslaw and tender barbecue rib meat tossed in a beer barbecue sauce,” according to the State Fair of Texas website.
4. Fernie’s GOAT funnel cake
A true celebration of Texas’ culinary staples, Fernie’s GOAT (Greatest of All Texas) Funnel Cake combines a Fernie’s funnel cake with Blue Bell ice cream, Cherry Dr. Pepper syrup and El Fenix pralines, according to the State Fair of Texas.

5. Dickel’s ‘Triple Meat Big Back Snack’
Everything is indeed bigger in Texas, as evidenced by this “Triple Meat Big Back Snack,” sold by Dickel’s Smokehouse.
This five-layered “snack” features “abuela’s cherished elote street corn recipe,” topped with chopped beef brisket, smoked Gouda macaroni and cheese, a buttermilk biscuit, Hogzilla pork belly burnt ends and topped with a “loaded nacho beef brisket sausage link” and deep-fried crinkle-cut maple waffle-flavored potato slices, the fair’s website said.
6. ‘The Nephew’
“The Nephew,” inspired by Smith Spot BBQ’s owner’s nephew, “combines the best of sweet and savory,” the State Fair of Texas said.

“Picture this: a warm glazed donut topped with tender brisket, gooey mozzarella cheese, a drizzle of honey and a sprinkle of powdered sugar,” the website said.
7. Fried matcha
A deep-fried twist on a Japanese flavor typically used in beverages, fried matcha “celebrates matcha in two delicious ways,” according to the State Fair of Texas.
“The first is Fried Mochi Matcha Ice Cream, a crispy, deep–fried treat with a chewy mochi shell,” it said.

“The second is the Fried Matcha Sando, featuring deep–fried Japanese milk bread filled with rich matcha Chantilly cream, topped with fresh strawberries and matcha biscuit sticks for an extra layer of flavor and texture.”
8. Caramel macchiato fritters
Another deep-fried twist on a beverage, the caramel macchiato fritters transform the morning treat into a sweet cake ball dessert.
“A classic, heaping serving of delicious caramel forms the nucleus of these creamy coffee cake balls,” the fair’s website said.

“Each cake ball is dipped in beignet batter and fried until golden brown.”
The fritters are then topped with whipped cream, caramel and a white chocolate drizzle. They are served with a syringe of espresso.
While state fair foods are known for being fun and indulgent, they serve a deeper purpose, Pulfer told Fox News Digital.

The fair is “a 501c3 nonprofit organization — so a portion of all food purchases goes back to doing good in our community year-round,” she said. “All of our concessionaires are small businesses.”

She added, “Some also operate brick-and-mortar restaurants, catering businesses and food trucks; some travel the country and operate at other fairs, festivals and events throughout the year; and some focus solely on operating at the State Fair of Texas each fall.”

Texas civic group wants judge to block Ken Paxton’s investigation into voter registration efforts
Sign up for the We the Texans newsletter to receive twice-monthly updates on our year-long initiative dedicated to boosting civic engagement and chronicling how democracy is experienced in Texas.
A nonprofit focused on increasing Latinos’ civic participation sued Attorney General Ken Paxton in federal court Friday so it could continue its voter registration efforts after the Republican official targeted them in an investigation last month.
The organization Jolt said in its request for a temporary restraining order that Paxton’s investigation would irreparably harm the organization and its associates by disclosing personal information and potentially placing its workers, volunteers and associates in harm’s way.
“If Jolt were forced to disclose confidential information to the Attorney General, it would be considered a betrayal of the trust that Jolt has earned from the Texas Latino community,” the organization’s lawyer, Mimi Marziani, wrote in the lawsuit. “It would make it more difficult for Jolt to associate with others and carry out its mission effectively, and it would likely put Jolt employees and others associated with the organization in danger.”
The background: Jolt’s lawsuit comes as Paxton, a Republican, has tried to bolster unfounded claims that Democrats are allowing noncitizens into the country so they can vote in large numbers. It also follows unprecedented attempts to investigate or shut down nonprofit social aid organizations that assist migrants and Latinos.
Last month, Paxton announced that his office was investigating whether organizations in Texas were “unlawfully registering noncitizens to vote” after FOX News host Maria Bartiromo had posted on social media that someone had seen organizations in Parker County and Fort Worth registering “immigrants” to vote.
The elections administrator and Republican County Chair in Parker County had told news outlets there was no evidence to support the charge. Experts say there is no evidence that people who aren’t U.S. citizens vote in elections in mass numbers. And before someone is allowed to vote, local and Texas officials verify their eligibility.
But on Aug. 31, Jolt, which had been registering people to vote outside Department of Public Safety offices in Fort Worth, received a “Request to Examine” from Paxton’s office asking the organization to turn over several documents, including information it provides about the voter registration process and all of the voter registration receipts it had completed.
In its lawsuit, Jolt said Paxton did not identify a reason why the nonprofit needed to provide the information and did not accuse the organization of any wrongdoing. The group also said Paxton did not obtain the permission or authority from a court to obtain the documents, instead asking for a “Request to Examine” under state law regulating the organization of businesses.

sent weekday mornings.
If Jolt did not comply with the request, the nonprofit could forfeit the ability to do business in the state. The nonprofit said in its lawsuit that it is also a Class B misdemeanor to fail to comply with the request from the attorney general’s office.
Why Jolt sued: The group said it was concerned that the Attorney General’s Office would make public the information it was requesting from the organization, which its leaders said would harm its workers and its reputation with the Latino community.
Two days after Bartiromo’s tweets, individuals began posting on social media without proof that Jolt was a “Marxist nonprofit organization” that was helping undocumented immigrants register to vote. Some people posted videos on social media purporting to confront the group’s volunteer deputy registrars. Other users responded to those social media posts with threatening comments such as “Target practice” or saying they wanted to “hunt” people who worked with Jolt. One social media user responded by posting the name of one of the group’s board members.
Given those threatening comments, Jolt’s board decided it could not comply with Paxton’s request without jeopardizing the safety of its volunteers or the people it works to register. Turning over the information, the group said, could also subject these people to being targeted by Paxton.
The group said it is already feeling the effects of Paxton’s investigation. Some of its previous partners have been less willing to cooperate with the group and its number of volunteer deputy registrars has dropped since the investigation began.
Jolt is asking the court to declare Paxton’s investigation unconstitutional and issue a preliminary injunction barring Paxton from taking any action to enforce his investigation.
What Paxton says: Paxton’s office could not be reached for comment Friday evening. But in the past, his office has said without proof that “Texans are deeply troubled by the possibility that organizations purporting to assist with voter registration are illegally registering noncitizens to vote.”
He questioned why organizations were registering to vote outside DPS centers if citizens are already given the opportunity to register to vote when conducting business inside the DPS offices.
“My office is investigating every credible report we receive regarding potential criminal activity that could compromise the integrity of our elections,” Paxton said in an Aug. 21 news release announcing his investigation into nonprofit organizations. “Any wrongdoing will be punished to the fullest extent of the law.”
Paxton has falsely accused President Joe Biden and Vice President Kamala Harris of intentionally allowing undocumented immigrants into the country so that they can vote for Democrats. In recent weeks, he has said on social media that 6,500 noncitizens have been removed from the voter rolls in Texas, a number that was first reported by Gov. Greg Abbott’s office. Voting rights organizations have said Abbott’s framing of that routine process could be used to undermine trust in elections.
The idea that mass numbers of non-citizens are voting is a winning topic with many Republicans, including former President Donald Trump, the GOP presidential nominee this year, who has repeated similar claims,including during the presidential debate this week.
