PFF ranks Texas’ 2022 schedule as one of the toughest in the country

Texas faces a difficult slate of games in 2022.

Pro Football Focus ranks Texas’ 2022 schedule as the 12th most difficult in the country and No. 1 in the Big 12 Conference.

Fans have already set a season ticket record less than a month away from opening kickoff.

The Longhorns’ nonconference schedule is highlighted by a blue-blood matchup against Nick Saban and the Alabama Crimson Tide in Week 2. Texas will host a UTSA team that won 11 games a year ago the following week.

Texas plays a full nine-game Big 12 schedule with difficult road trips to Oklahoma State and Kansas State. The Horns look for revenge against rival Oklahoma in Dallas in the second week of October. Defending Big 12 champion Baylor comes to Austin to end the regular season on Nov. 26.

Here is a full look at Pro Football Focus’ schedule rankings ahead of the 2022 college football season.
