5 reasons why the Texas Longhorns are the next College Football dynasty

The Texas Longhorns are coming off of their first appearance in the history of the College Football Playoff. What is even scarier is that they are now in the SEC which will elevate their program even more. This combined with head coach Steve Sarkisian's ability to recruit and several other factors make the Longhorns primed to be the next dynasty in college football. I provide my top five reasons why in this article.

Do not be surprised if the Texas Longhorns surface as the next dynasty in college football. Coming off of a 12-2 season in 2023 could just be the start of things to come in Austin with the teams transition to the SEC beginning in 2024. In this article, I give my top five reasons on why I think the Longhorns will surface in the coming years as the next dynasty in college football.

While I truly believe in these points, many were brought to light for my agreement by LockedOn Longhorns Podcast Host, Jonathan Davis who gave some great points himself on what is outlined, as well as many other points on the Longhorns several times each week.

What does joining the SEC mean for the Texas Longhorns?

Well, the SEC is the best conference in college football. While the state of Texas is traditionally one of the top states in the country for recruiting high school alongside California and Florida, they have not had the benefit of being in what is viewed as the top conference in college football as they have been in the Big 12 since 1995.

Joining the SEC now means that players within the state and beyond that want to play for the SEC can do so while playing for the Texas Longhorns.
