Texas finishes No. 4 in US LBM Coaches Poll to conclude 2023 season

The final US LBM Coaches Poll for the 2023 college football season was released on Tuesday.

Texas concluded the season No. 4 in the Coaches Poll, one spot below the AP Poll which placed the Longhorns at No. 3. Steve Sarkisian’s squad surpassed expectations in his third year with the program, ending the season with a 12-2 record, Big 12 championship and College Football Playoff berth.

There is plenty to be excited about in Austin. Texas enters the SEC with an experienced offensive line, several impactful transfers coming in, and likely a Heisman contender in quarterback Quinn Ewers. The Longhorns also appear to have kept their coaching staff intact for the most part.

Here is a look at the final US LBM Coaches Poll.
