Preseason Texas: if you knew the Horns were going to beat Oklahoma and Baylor...

Probably 8 or 9.

They really should have for sure won 7 if it weren't for some crazy special teams mishaps iirc.

If I told you before the season Texas would be shut out by Iowa State, yes, Iowa State, you would predict zero wins.

Talk about a roller coaster of a season.

They start out by getting destroyed at Notre Dame:
Texas - 3 Notre Dame - 38

They regroup and beat a bad Rice team:
Texas - 42 Rice - 28

They then lose two heartbreakers in a row:
Texas - 44 Cal - 45
Texas - 27 Oklahoma State - 30

No heartbreaker the next week as TCU treats Texas like they're a FCS school:
Texas - 7 TCU - 50

Texas just lost by 43 to TCU...all hope is lost. The season is over. Wait...W...T...F...Texas is feeling pretty damn good after "ruining" Oklahoma's season ( ). Time to regroup and focus on K-State. Snyder is a legend.
Texas - 24 Oklahoma - 17

Holy shite. Two wins in a row with Iowa State coming up. Texas is back in the saddle!
Texas - 23 Kansas State - 9.

W.........T..........F...........
Texas - 0 Iowa State - 24

Winless Kansas won't log their first win against Texas
Texas - 59 Kansas - 20

arse. Kicked.
Texas - 20 West Virginia - 38

Kliff is too cool and leaves Austin with his guns up.
Texas - 45 Texas Tech - 48

It took a 4th string, WR playing Quarterback for Baylor (which they almost came back and won)...Texas held on more so than they won.
Texas - 23 Baylor - 17

Yeah, Texas had as big of an up and down season as I can remember a team ever having.

Beat playoff team Oklahoma
Shut out by awful Iowa State
Blow out Kansas State
Beat Baylor on the road
