The key to success for the Texas football program is no secret. The Longhorns’ 2024 season, like the one before it, hinges on how well starting quarterback Quinn Ewers plays.
Last season’s playoff run proved Ewers capable of high caliber football over the course of a season, but the Longhorns’ title chances come down to whether or not he can improve to the same degree.
ESPN views the third year starter as one of its top quarterbacks in college football. It ranks Ewers No. 3 in the country. Here’s a look at the site’s Top 10.
Carson Beck, Georgia
Dillon Gabriel, Oregon
Quinn Ewers, Texas
Jalen Milroe, Alabama
Noah Fifita, Arizona
Jaxson Dart, Ole Miss
Jalon Daniels, Kansas
Shedeur Sanders, Colorado
Cameron Rising, Utah
Cameron Ward, Miami
The above list includes 10 proven quarterbacks. That Ewers is ranked so highly among them speaks to the respect he garnered in his 2023 campaign.
Ewers will look to grow from his impressive season in which he completed 69% of his passes and put up just under nine yards per attempt.
