Once again, the Texas Longhorns have earned a spot in the Top 5 of a preseason analyst’s poll. On3 Sports’ Andy Staples has ranked the Longhorns as the No. 5 team in college football. This ranking is well-deserved, as Texas is the only 2023 playoff team that returns its head coach, offensive coordinator, defensive coordinator, and starting quarterback. With several multi-year starters on the offensive line, the Longhorns have stability heading into the season.
Staples believes that Texas has the potential to compete for a national title this season, despite being ranked No. 5. He has stated that the team could win it all at its peak, but there seems to be more faith in four other teams ahead of the Longhorns in the rankings.
Staples’ rankings have also raised some eyebrows for other teams. Teams like Alabama, Miami, Notre Dame, and Auburn have been ranked in positions that some may consider too high or too low.
Teams like Ole Miss, Missouri, LSU, and Oklahoma have been ranked lower than expected by Staples. These teams have had success in recent seasons and return key players, making them clear contenders in his eyes.
Overall, regardless of how other teams are ranked, Texas is viewed as a strong contender this season. The Longhorns will kick off their season against Colorado State on ESPN, giving fans a chance to see how they match up against the competition.
