After an underwhelming 2019 season with five losses, the Texas Longhorns still managed to secure a spot in the final Associated Press Top 25 poll.
Although Texas was the third-best team in the Big 12, their performance against No. 11 Utah in the Alamo Bowl was enough to re-enter into the final standings at No. 25 overall.
Only two other Big 12 teams were listed, Oklahoma at No. 7 while Baylor grabbed the No. 13 spot. Former rival Texas A&M just missed the final rankings, falling below the Longhorns in what would be the No. 26 spot.
Texas was the only five-loss team in the season-ending poll.
