I think some of Eddie Robinson's teams at Grambling might have been invisible to everyone except the student body and the NFL.

@Joe Zura really wowed them.

Who could forget that one lol

Texas just needs to get the 2025 Natty and go from there…

Holy Crap. Mind blown 🤯

At least their reaction was better than Conner Weigman’s

Wingo

Agreed. Other names contributing depending on formational subs will be Liona Lefau at linebacker and Brad Spence at edge.

This is good stuff right here! Worth the watch.

Two areas I think we improve in for this game versus the Cotton Bowl are giving up TFLs and Passes Deflected. Arch should be able to clean both of these up with his height in the pocket and athleticism. I see sacks as a different story... if the pocket collapses, the pocket collapses. OTs can get beat. But Arch's athleticism should help him escape TFLs and his ability to spread the field should help the run game negate this issue. Sonny Styles ate us alive in these two categories... 3 TFL, 1 PD, 1 Sack We gave up 9 TFLs, 6 PDs, 4 Sacks. Gotta improve there

Any claimed titles in the pre-AP poll era (1936) shouldn't count.

If there's anything more idiotic than stripping a school's wins or titles, it's retroactively claiming titles.

I don't know who 1970 should belong to but it shouldn't be my Buckeyes lol. I believe that is the only one OSU claims that they didn't earn

It’s true there was a lot more issues back then crowning a true champion and it’s the reason aggy can triple their nattys overnight. If you go by those the Yale is still a blue blood program.

Thanks brother

Man, Texas is stacked. Here are the Buckeyes who made the list - 1. Jeremiah Smith 3. Caleb Downs 62. Sonny Styles 67. Carnell Tate 75. Max Klare

My prediction for Texas: LT: Trevor Goosby LG: Neto Umeozulu C : Cole Hutson RG: DJ Campbell RT: Brandon Baker QB: Arch Manning RB: Quintrevion Wisner TE: Jack Endries WR1: Ryan Wingo WR2: Parker Livingstone Slot: DeAndre Moore Jr. DE: Colin Simmons DT: Maraad Watson NT: Cole Brevard or Alex January DE: Ethan Burke LB: Anthony Hill LB: Trey Moore CB1: Malik Muhammad CB2: Jaylon Guilbeau Nickel: Michael Taaffe FS: Jelani McDonald SS: Derek Williams Jr. P: Jack Bouwmeester PK: Mason Shipley (field goals and extra points), Will Stone (kickoffs) LS: Lance St. Louis

Hi Longhorn Nation, who will be UT’s starting 11 on offense and defense and their P/K on 8/30? What about injuries, are there any injuries you are watching or concerned about? For Ohio State, in 11 personnel LT: Austin Siereveld LG: Luke Montgomery C : Carson Hinzman RG: Tegra Tshabola RT: Phillip Daniels (Ethan Onianwa) QB: Julian Sayin RB: James Peoples TE: Max Klare WR1: Jeremiah Smith WR2: Carnell Tate Slot: Brandon Innis DE: Kenyatta Jackson Jr DT: Eddrick Houston DT: Kayden McDonald DE: Caden Curry (Beau Atkinson) LB: Sonny Styles LB: Arvell Reese CB1: Davison Igbinuson CB2: Jermaine Matthews Jr Nickel: Lorenzo Styles Jr FS: Caleb Downs SS: Jaylen McClain (Malik Hartford) P: Joe McGuire (Nick McLarty) K: Jayden Fielding Parentheses for competitions that haven’t been decided/announced yet. Injuries: None

Possibilities for me at the end of the year: Wingo, Endries, and Goosby on offense Watson, Derek Williams on defense

I agree with this, but what about before the AP poll was created in 1936? Looking back, there are several seasons before 1936 that Texas could claim national championships for. Wikipedia lists 1914 as an unclaimed national championship, but Texas had several other seasons in which they went undefeated and untied.

Should be simple. If you were awarded a natty by a major outlet such as AP or UPI/coaches at the time and you and the entire base celebrated it.. that’s a true natty. All this other stuff is nonsense.

Prior to 1974, the UPI poll (now “Coaches Poll”), awarded the national championship after the regular season but prior to the bowl games, most notably in 1964 (Arkansas / Bama) and 1965 (MSU / Bama). It was not uncommon for the UPI national champion to lose their subsequent bowl game…since they had nothing to play for and the bowl was effectively an inter-sectional exhibition game. There have been 11 times where the UPI / Coaches poll differed from the AP Poll, but once we arrived at the BCS era, that largely resolved things (except for the final AP protest vote in 2003).

Who can you see being on this list when the season is over? Also interesting that they have Mateer over Manning.

This morning ESPN released their top 100 college football players for the 2025 season and six Longhorns made the list. You can find the full list here: https://www.espn.com/college-football/story/_/id/45798030/2025-season-college-football-ranking-top-100-players-jeremiah-smith-cade-klubnik

If Texas used SEC measurement rules Texas could claim 9 NC’s.
