Analysis: The Longhorns are above average in opponents’ win percentage and percentage of elite teams, but in the other categories they’re in the bottom 1/3 of the rankings. They usually schedule one average to above-average BCS team, an average non-BCS opponent (usually Rice), and a below-average non-BCS opponent or two.

Fact: Texas’ opponents average wins is as steady as you get – all ten BCS years they’ve been between 4.5 & 6.1.

Fact: Since 2000, Texas has opened their season by playing a team from the Sun Belt at home.

2008 Outlook: Yup. Opening with Florida Atlantic at home, @ a probably-less-than-challenging UTEP, Arkansas at home (might be tricky since the Hogs are in transition), and the usual Rice at home.
