From North Texas’ best season ever to bowl misses and rebuilding years, we break down grades, expectations, and trends for every Texas G5 team in 2025.

Final Grades for G5 Teams in Texas for 2025 Season

The 2025 college football season ends Jan. 19 when Miami faces Indiana. But the season is over for the 13 FBS programs inside the state of Texas. It was a great year that fizzled a bit at the end with North Texas and SMU tripping up late and Texas Tech and Texas A&M combining for three points in two College Football Playoff appearances. 

The highlight is that as many as five teams could end the year ranked, which would break the previous record of three. Those five teams – Texas A&M, Texas Tech, Texas, Houston, and North Texas – all finished with 10 or more wins. Ten of the 13 FBS programs in the Lone Star State played in a bowl game with only Baylor, UTEP, and Sam Houston missing out on the postseason.
