ESPN has Texas football right where it belongs in preseason SEC rankings

Last season, Texas marched into the SEC and (nearly) stole the show. The Horns only lost to the Georgia Bulldogs in the regular season, and then lost to them again in the conference championship game, but progressed farther than any other team in the conference in the College Football Playoffs.
