Longhorns Week 1 Depth Chart Projection vs. Louisiana Monroe /

The Texas Longhorns kick off the season against the Louisiana Monroe Warhawks on Saturday night, hoping to improve on a 5-7 record from a season ago. 

And with a new season comes a new roster, now packed to the brim with new talent. 

Typically, that means a new depth chart as well, but unfortunately, Texas head coach Steve Sarkisian does not plan to release one. 

Neither before Week 1 nor at any point this season. 

That said, have no fear. LonghornsCountry.com is here to give you our best projection for the initial depth chart for Week 1, and who could be making an impact from the opening kick on Saturday.
