Believe it or not, hype surrounding the Texas football program for the 2023 season continues to build.
Former coach Urban Meyer set the college football world on fire last week when he stated that Texas could have the best roster in the country this upcoming season.
There’s always preseason hype surrounding the Longhorns, but this season feels different. Third-year head coach Steve Sarkisian has established a culture, found continuity among the coaching staff, brought in top-five recruiting classes the last two cycles, and now has plenty of experience and depth on the roster.
In other words, there’s no better time than now for Texas to prove they’re back.
The national media feels the same way with high expectations for Texas in their final year of Big 12 play this season. Brad Crawford of 247Sports recently released his early bowl projections and College Football Playoff predictions.
Texas appears in the Rose Bowl of the playoff against Ohio State. Here’s a look at the most exciting matchups from Crawford’s predictions.
