Texas has a challenging schedule. It’s not the hardest in the SEC by any means. But it’s also not the easiest. UT has several tough games on the road in 2025. Texas opens at Ohio State. They face OU in Dallas. They will travel to Georgia. And they go to the Swamp to take on Florida, where they will suffered their first loss of the season according to CBS Sports.
Last year, the Gators had an up and down year. There were a lot of rumors head coach Billy Napier was going to get fired midway through the season. The Gators lost to rival Miami, Texas A&M, Tennessee, Georgia and Texas. But then Florida showed signs of life. UF upset LSU and Ole Miss and Napier saved his job.
The Gators have one of the best quarterbacks the Longhorns will face in DJ Lagway. Lagway was hurt when Texas hosted Florida last season. Florida’s rising sophomore quarterback made big plays in Florida’s two upset wins and some have called Lagway the most important individual player in the country. His play would be the big reason Florida beats Texas, if it happens.

Here is what CBS Sports had to say:
First loss: at Florida, Oct. 4 – Our preseason pick to win the SEC this season as one of four playoff teams, the Longhorns will not get through the schedule without a loss. The schedule is too treacherous compared to last season, and The Swamp could be a nightmare this fall for visiting teams. Believe it or not, these teams have played in Gainesville before, but that came in 1940. Texas leads the all-time series with Florida, 3-0-1. – CBS Sports
The good news about this prediction is it means Texas beats Ohio State in Week 1. But it also means Texas will be going to Georgia in a “must win” situation.
