Will Texas be pre-season ranked in the top 7?

[Shanemansj13]

Possibly top 10...

The top 6 in no order-
Bama
Clemson
Oklahoma
Georgia
Ohio State
Notre Dame

Then...
Texas?
LSU?
Michigan? (they shouldn't)
Florida?
Washington?

I think it depends who goes to the draft but I could actually see them right at 7.

Florida and Texas will be ranked higher than Notre Dame.

How many are they losing on defense? Eight?

Yes, Teasips, I know...


* The backups got LOTS of snaps;

* They are all blue-chip studs and can make an IMMEDIATE impact;

* Have you seen their Top 40 times and bench press numbers?!?

* We'll have a top 5 class this year!


You finished 10-3. Congrats. So did several other teams. Not sure any of them will be "b-a-a-a-a-a-c-k."

Including my own...

Yes

I see those teams in the playoff all staying inside the top 7. Add Ohio State, Texas. Auburn, Florida, Georgia, and possibly Michigan all preseason top ten probably not in that order.

 

[TrustMeIamRight]

Do they play Maryland next season?

Damnit — that was going to be my question.

Yes

WHAT?!? They have Bama #1. Way to go out on a limb

 

[Goldbug]

Texas will be ranked high next season and they deserve it. I've got a feeling UT is going to get so lucky next year they could play Russian roulette with a semi-automatic.

 

[DeafOranguntan]

Probably not after
1. Alabama
2. Georgia
3. LSU
4. Florida
5. Mississippi St.
6. Texas A&M
7. Auburn

Maybe 9th though

Nah, You've got Kentucky, South Carolina, and Tennessee rounding out the top 10 next year. Texas would probably come in around 17th or so, obviously after Ole Miss, Clemson, Missouri, Ohio State, Arkansas, Oklahoma, and Vandy.

Do they play Maryland next season?

The Longhorn have play Georgia and Maryland

... Georgia is no Maryland.

Fortunately we don't play MD again, those pesky Terps. Instead, we get to stomp a muhdole in another overrated SEC team

Give them top 7, top 5, doesn't matter. They eventually have to play Oklahoma in which they will lose, be it the RRSO or in the Big12 championship game.

Oklahoma will go to the CFP to be destroyed and outmatched by whoever they play.

Rinse and repeat for 2020 as well.

 

[4down20]

Wow, people are taking that win pretty serious. I wonder how many times a SEC team has to lose the Sugar Bowl before people start to see the pattern.

Off the top of my head I'd say they legit deserve to be in the top15. But it's Texas and they will get hyped, so I'm betting top10 minimum in the AP and top7 wouldn't be surprising.

Top7 at the end of the year - that would surprise me.

 

[_rolltideroll_]

Top 3 since Texas beat the pres-season National Champs, in the post season, of the season before the preseason polls come out.

 

[Wheat]

 

[Droopdog51]

Me too. Make them pre-season number 1 and let’s watch the fanbase go full retard.

 

[SideSwipe52]

Probably top 15.

 

[Kaplony]

You forgot Vanderbilt and SCAR

I imagine he was trying to keep the list realistic

 

[ralphiewvu]

They be top 10, lose 5 games and be back where they started before this year.
