Most of us are aware of what's plaguing the Texas Longhorns going into the 2012 season. Texas managed to record a combined 10 touchdowns between its two starters in David Ash and Case McCoy in 2011., so hopes of a improving enough to win a Big 12 Championship definitely depends on better quarterback play.
Our colleagues at SB Nation Studios have a Longhorns season preview with the team ranked No. 13, based on the strength of its defense and what could be a really solid running game with the addition of Johnathan Gray, who was the 2011-12 Gatorade High School Player of the Year.
But Texas is going to need balance. Otherwise, opposing defenses will be able to stack the box and Gray will be in for a long freshman campaign.
