The Dave Campbell’s Texas Football 2026 Midseason All-Texas College Football Teams include 56 players from 11 of the 13 FBS programs in the state. Forty-one of the 56 players compete the Power Four level with Houston leading the way at eight selections. Texas and Texas Tech were tied for second most with seven. SMU, TCU, and North Texas each had six selections.
Houston quarterback Conner Weigman is the Midseason Offensive Player of the Year.

Texas defensive end Colin Simmons, who leads the country in sacks and tackles for loss, is the Midseason Defensive Player of the Year.
