Texas Football: Why Low Ranking on USAT Poll Makes Things Harder for Mack Brown

How is it that a team that has the conference's most-experienced quarterback, that fields the nation's most returning starters (19) and is favored in every game but one?ranked outside of the top-10? Because nobody believes Mack is back.

Last season, a No. 15 preseason ranking was acceptable for a Texas team in total quarterback limbo. Now, on paper, the squad is loaded and the pressure is officially on Mack to coach it up to its potential.

That is a scary proposition for two reasons. First, Mack has not been able to turn top-tier talent into even a good season in three years, evidenced by the repeated beat-downs in the Red River Rivalry.

Then there is the issue of doubt creeping in when something goes wrong. Brown knows he cannot let this season become water in his hands, so what will he do if Ash crumbles again against OU? Or if Manny Diaz's defense cannot stop a nosebleed?

No matter how the season unfolds, Brown has to prove that he can coach this team back to the top in 2013. This ranking from his peers proves that.?
