Texas football actually has good odds from the opening Vegas lines to make a run to the College Football Playoff during the 2018 campaign. That’s a good sign for the Longhorns since the hype for this upcoming season is more warranted than over the past three years before under Charlie Strong. Now, the current Texas head football coach in Tom Herman has the Horns headed down the right path.
Whether that path leads directly to the College Football Playoff or not doesn’t matter too much to the fan base, as long as he improves the win total from a seven win campaign from a year ago.
