On Friday, EA Sports released its team power rankings. Texas was given a 92 overall grade, tied with Alabama and good for a No. 5 power ranking.
When using Texas in the new game, teams playing at Darrell K Royal-Texas Memorial Stadium will have a tall task. Not only are the Longhorns a formidable opponent, but the home environment is ranked as one of the best in the country. Texas was ranked No. 19 in terms of homefield advantage, good for 10th in the SEC.
These rankings are a fresh look and offer a different perspective than the preseason polls like the AP Poll and the Coaches Poll fans typically have to wait for until mid-August. They’re sure to still stir controversy all the same.
