Forecasting what Texas football will look like in 2023

Barring transfer portal surprises, Texas will return its best roster in a long time.

The Texas Longhorns are likely going to look a lot different next season on offense. For starters, arguably the No. 1 player in college football is expected to go to the NFL Draft.

Bijan Robinson won’t win the Heisman Trophy this season, but if we gave him a video game rating I’m sure he’d receive a near perfect score. The loss of Robinson will leave a sizable void for Texas to fill.

There are a couple players Texas will ask to have bigger roles for the team next season. Xavier Worthy and Ja’Tavion Sanders figure to be the featured offensive players after being more run dominant in 2022.

A host of defensive impact players could come back for the Longhorns. Texas defensive coordinator Pete Kwiatkowski would thrive building around cornerstone players line Jaylan Ford, Ryan Watts, Jahdae Barron and Barryn Sorrell.

Here’s what to expect at each position.
