2025 Texas Longhorns CFB Betting Lines
In 2024, the Texas Longhorns demonstrated that their move to the SEC from the Big 12 was worthwhile and that they could compete effectively within the conference. Texas lost an overtime thriller to the Georgia Bulldogs in the SEC Championship Game and then advanced to the College Football Playoff's Final Four, where they ultimately lost to the eventual national champion, the Ohio State Buckeyes. That old Texas swagger and arrogance are making a rapid return.
When interacting with much of the Texas Longhorns fan base, one quickly notices a sense of self-importance, oversized arrogance, and perhaps a general lack of awareness about college football. Their sense of entitlement and privilege is matched only by Michigan, which finally won the national championship last year after decades of underachieving. Yet, when you examine Texas as a football brand, it is a lot of ten-gallon hats without much cattle. The record reveals a program that is desperate for relevance, which was lost 15 years ago. Under head coach Steve Sarkisian, it is finally returning.

2025 Texas Longhorns Preview
Texas is 25-5 with back-to-back trips to a College Football Playoff semifinal over the last two years. Coach Steve Sarkisian has clearly elevated the Longhorns back to a spot among the nation’s best and in a position to reload instead of rebuild every year. With the roster again stocked with talent, the next step is clear: Win a national title.
Expectations are sky high for quarterback Arch Manning in his first season as the starter. The sophomore should give Texas more big-play ability in the passing game, as well as an additional rushing threat than former starter Quinn Ewers. Helping Manning ease into the starting role is the return of running backs Tre Wisner and CJ Baxter (missed ‘24 due to injury), and a receiving corps featuring intriguing talents in wide receiver Ryan Wingo and tight end Jack Endries. Replacing four starters on the line is Sarkisian’s biggest concern on offense.
Texas led the SEC in fewest yards per play (4.4 yards a play) and ranked second in points allowed (15.3 points a game) last season. Despite the departure of defensive back Jahdae Barron and a couple of other pieces, this unit could still rank as the No. 1 group in the SEC. End Colin Simmons and linebacker Anthony Hill Jr. are two of the best individual defenders in the nation, while cornerback Malik Muhammad should contend for All-America honors. The concerns about this unit are minimal. But how the secondary shuffles to replace Barron, along with Sarkisian’s efforts to reload at defensive tackle through the portal, are two areas to watch this fall.

Texas has a total of four claimed and five unclaimed national championships. Their last title was in 2005, which was their first since 1970. This stunning fact indicates a good program, but hardly the juggernaut it considers itself to be. Texas has an impressive 32 conference championships.
Former head coach Mack Brown showed the potential of the Texas program. Brown led the Longhorns to the 2005 and 2009 national championship games. From 2001 through 2009, Brown led Texas to the final top ten national rankings six times.
Following a loss in the 2009 national championship game to the Alabama Crimson Tide, Texas's fortunes rapidly declined, and it has never since reached that level. Brown vehemently denies it, but the program turned soft in his final years. A sense of entitlement took over the program. In fact, Texas began being derided as the “tea sippers.”
Texas dominated the Big 12 Conference board room, which led to that sense of entitlement. ESPN gave the Longhorns their own network, and the Big 12 largely caved to the Longhorns' demands. It caused karma that damaged the program and removed its hard edge.
