The Texas football program is clearly one of the most storied in the history of this “amateur” sport. College football has a host of blue bloods that stayed relevant throughout the past 150 years that ESPN ranked their 50 best programs in that span of time. Texas got a pretty favorable ranking on that list too.
Considering this list spanned over so many years, it’s hard to pinpoint exactly where the Texas Longhorns football program should fall in line. ESPN did use a point system to rank out these 50 college football programs and had national titles specifically included for each on the list.
