Ex-Longhorns star Bijan Robinson jokingly agrees ‘Horns Down’ taunt should come with consequences

“Horns Down” has been the go-to taunt for any college football or basketball player and athlete against the Texas Longhorns for the last few years.

The gesture entered the national spotlight in the last couple of weeks as Longhorns men’s basketball coach Rodney Terry shouted at UCF players for doing it in the handshake line after the Knights won the game. BYU fans were reportedly asked to remove their “Horns Down” shirts during a game against Texas on Saturday.

However, should fans and players alike face the consequences of giving the “Horns Down” taunt?

“Honestly, yeah,” Atlanta Falcons star Bijan Robinson, and former Texas football standout, told Fox News Digital in a recent interview. “But I mean, that’s just me being biased because I just loved the University of Texas. I love everything about it. But I mean, for me, like, it shouldn’t affect you because that’s the sign of smack talk for other teams.”

Robinson, who spoke to Fox News Digital on behalf of Courtyard by Marriott, said the best way to stop it is to just win the game.
