OTF Premium Final Depth Chart Snapshot: Predicting the Texas depth chart for the 2026 season opener

[Deep in the heart]

Great write up Jeff! So do you expect Masunas to start over Townsend in 11 personnel? I'm assuming this is a general depth chart and not the depth chart for Texas St. since you have Goosby starting at LT. Would Cummings get the nod over Atkinson against Texas St.? I thought Cummings would line up at MLB and Atkinson would be lined up at WLB.

Kinda wild to see a 5y senior with double digits starts listed 3rd string...

1. Whether he starts or not, Masunas will be the primary tight end. That's the way it was through camp.

2. Yes, it's the depth chart in general, not specifically for the Texas State game.

3. Kosi Okpala is the most ready to play among the freshmen linebackers. As it stands, Darius Snow would be on the field before Atkinson based on how things have unfolded in camp.

Thanks Jeff.
