Texas Football: Diving into 3 teams added to Longhorns future schedule

Three more non-conference slates were rounded out for the Texas football program on Jan. 23, with only one still open for the next seven years.

On Jan. 23, the Texas football program had their three additions to the futures schedules announced. Texas added the Wyoming Cowboys, Louisiana-Monroe Warhawks, and Texas State Bobcats to three years of futures schedules as it was reported on Thursday afternoon. At this point, Texas now has six of their next seven non-conference schedules filled out.

The only one of the next seven non-conference schedules that isn’t filled at this point for Texas is 2025. That 2025 slate still has one spot left on the non-conference slate alongside the UTEP Miners and Ohio State Buckeyes. The 2027 slate also has one spot left during the non-conference slate, also alongside UTEP and the Michigan Wolverines.

Other significant non-conference opposition that Texas has scheduled for future seasons by now is the LSU Tigers, Alabama Crimson Tide, Florida Gators, Georgia Bulldogs, and Arkansas Razorbacks. Texas also has home-and-home series scheduled for the future against the Big Ten powers Ohio State and Michigan.

Next year, Texas has an interesting non-conference slate lined up that will feature the South Florida Bulls, UTEP, and LSU. USF just fired former Texas head coach Charlie Strong, so head coach Tom Herman won’t get to take on his predecessor to open up the 2020 regular season.

Here’s a look into a deeper dive into the next three teams that were added to the futures schedules of the Texas Longhorns football program heading into the 2020 offseason.
