Projection: likely out

Texas has had a rocky start to the season, highlighted by a loss to Ohio State, a solid team, which raises concerns about their ability to compete against high-caliber opponents. Their defense has underperformed, ranking notably low, which could be a serious liability in the competitive Southeastern Conference. Upcoming games against formidable teams like Auburn and Tennessee will be crucial; a string of losses there would severely dampen their tournament hopes. Conversely, the opportunities to gain momentum against lower-ranked teams like MS Valley State and Delaware State are essential for boosting their overall record and confidence. Winning those games is necessary, but they’ll need standout performances in the SEC to truly solidify their postseason aspirations.
