It’s now a time for review and reflection after the 2020 college football season
How did the Longhorns fare and where do they go from here? Many of these questions will be answered in due time. For now, let’s take a look at how they did throughout the season. Where were they ranked among the rest of the Football Bowl Subdivision (FBS)?
Texas finished the year as the No. 23 team in the USA TODAY Sports re-rank, climbing four spots from No. 27. They jumped Army, San Jose State and Oregon. The Ducks took a tumble after losing to Iowa State in the Fiesta Bowl.
The full Big 12 Breakdown:
- Oklahoma No. 6
- Iowa State No. 10
- Oklahoma State No. 18
- Texas No. 23
- West Virginia No. 34
- Texas Christian No. 45
- Kansas State No. 70
- Texas Tech No. 83
- Baylor No. 93
- Kansas No. 124
There’s no shocking turn of events here with the re-ranking of all FBS teams by USA TODAY Sports. The Longhorns are a bit lower than their consensus spot in both polls, but three or four spots isn’t a huge margin. The focus now turns to finishing out the new staff under Steve Sarkisian and wrapping up the 2021 recruiting class.

Once both of those items have been crossed off the list, the team can focus on the 2021 season and making their mark on the 2022 recruiting class. The first move was made on Tuesday when the No. 12 wide receiver in the country committed to Texas. Armani Winfield is the No. 3 wideout in the state of Texas behind Caleb Burton and Evan Stewart. This was a major first commitment for Sarkisian in Austin.
