Week 2's US LBM Coaches Poll was just released, and it comes with different levels of frustration by Longhorn Nation and the college football world. Texas officially drops down to No.6 from No.1, which is similar to the falling morale of the fanbase right now.

- Ohio State
- Penn State
- Georgia
- LSU
- Oregon
- Texas
- Miami
- Clemson
- Notre Dame
- Arizona State
- South Carolina

- Ole Miss
- Florida

- Iowa State
- Florida State
- Alabama
- Indiana
- Texas A&M
- Texas Tech

After heading into the 2025 season with a head full of steam and motivation, Texas was immediately humbled by its opponent in week one. Though they'll definitely need to adjust some aspects of their offense going forward, it shouldn't be hard for them to get back on track over the next few weeks.
They play San Jose State, UTEP, and Sam Houston before their bye week, and if they don't come out of that slate at 3-0, there's a bigger problem than we think.
This Texas team needs to get some wins under its belt, regardless of the opponent, to boost everybody's morale leading up to conference play on October 4th when they face Florida in Gainesville.
