Can Texas win the national championship in 2024?

The College Football Playoff will be expanding to 12 teams in the upcoming season, providing more teams with the opportunity to partake in the postseason tournament.

This expansion undoubtedly enhances the chances for teams like the Longhorns, who made it to the last four-team playoffs in the previous season, to secure a spot in the expanded format.

Steve Sarkisian has done a brilliant job in elevating the Longhorns back to the pinnacle of college football since taking over in Austin. Without a doubt, the team is poised to contend for the ultimate prize in 2024 despite playing in a new conference.
