Ahead of a highly anticipated season where they are already national title favorites with a top Heisman contender in Arch Manning, the Texas Longhorns made history with their place at No. 1 in the US LBM Coaches Poll Top 25 for Aug. 4.

For the first time in history, Texas football is ranked No. 1 in one of the major preseason polls. The Longhorns sit atop the Preseason Coaches Poll, edging out reigning national champion Ohio State for the No.

More than three decades of history suggest Texas should be wary of its No. 1 ranking in the preseason US LBM Coaches Poll.

According to multiple reports, Texas football offensive lineman Andre Cojoe tore a ligament in his knee during practice and will miss the 2025 season. On Texas Football first reported the news in a post on X, but the American-Statesman could not confirm the injury with the Texas football program as of Monday afternoon.

Texas announced running back CJ Baxter will miss this season after determining a knee injury in practice will require surgery.

Texas Longhorns' OT Andre Cojoe will reportedly miss the entire 2025 season with a right knee injury he suffered in Texas Fall Camp. Where do the Longhorns go next?
