Texas Longhorns 2010 College Football Predictions: The Texas Longhorns enter the 2010 season with a quarterback not named Colt McCoy. While the Longhorns get a new quarterback developed into their system, their 2010 NCAA Betting Odds will surely not hold up to last years' odds. Texas is coming off an amazing 13-1 season in which they posted a 7-0 conference record. The Longhorns are looking to bounce back from a 37-21 loss to the Alabama Crimson Tide in last years' BCS National Championship game. Hammerhead Sports always delivers the most accurate free sports picks and free football odds from our team of NCAA predictions experts. Find our winning NCAA Odds Selections Below.
College Football Predictions Offense: The Longhorns will count on sophomore Garrett Gilbert to lead the offense. Gilbert stepped in when Colt McCoy got hurt in last year’s title game, and bounced back after a shaky start. Texas returns top running back, Tre’ Newton, who carried the ball 116 times and scored six touchdowns. The Longhorns also lose their best receiver in Jordan Shipley. The Bengals’ third round pick averaged 12.8 yards per reception for the Longhorns last season and scored 13 touchdowns on 116 catches. Malcolm Williams, James Kirkendoll, and John Chiles will try to fill the void, but those numbers are hard to replace. Sportsbook.com has the Texas Longhorns' 2011 BCS National Championship Odds at +1500.

College Football Predictions Defense: Defensive tackle Sam Acho, who had ten sacks and four tackles for a loss, will lead the way on a strong defensive line. However, the Longhorns will sorely miss defensive end Sergio Kindle, who had 5.5 sacks and 16.5 tackles for a loss in 2009. Linebacker Roddrick Muckelroy was the team’s top tackler last season, but he now plays for the Cininnati Bengals. The Longhorns also lost safety Earl Thomas, who will play safety for the Seattle Seahawks in 2010. He had eight interceptions for the Longhorns in 2009. Free safety Blake Gideon, who had six of his own, will look to repeat that performance this season. The Texas Longhorns' 2010 NCAA Betting Odds win total is at 9.5, with the Over at -200.
