Texas State football prepares to face ULM, one of the worst teams in the Sun Belt. However, the Bobcats are not underestimating their opponent.

As the 2025 college football season approached, the Texas Longhorns aimed to break a nearly two-decade national championship drought. For the first time in program history, Texas entered the season ranked No. 1 in the preseason AP poll. Additionally, they were the only team to qualify for each of the last two College Football Playoff semifinals.

Texas football coach Steve Sarkisian made his case Monday why the Longhorns are still CFP contenders, citing the 2019 LSU Tigers to back him up.

Desmond Howard may anticipate a major shakeup in Texas, but the athletic director thinks otherwise. The Longhorns, who opened the 2025 season as the nation's No. 1 team, are in danger of missing the College Football Playoff after falling to 7-3.

Not only did Texas lose at Georgia, but the manner of the 35-10 defeat offered little confidence in the Longhorns' playoff chances as a three-loss team. The offensive momentum they showed in wins over Mississippi State and Vanderbilt vanished against a more athletic defense.
