I would love for ALL OTF members to participate in this.

We will be unveiling our Top 25 Horns of the modern era (1992-2025) in a couple of days, but I want to do a fan vote for the Top 10.

Please remember that this is ONLY since 1992. No answers before then will be counted.

The 1992 season marked the start of college football's modern era due to structural shifts in television revenue, the rise of super-conferences, inaugural championship games, and the first coordinated attempts to match the nation's top two teams in the postseason

Beginning the "modern" era with 1992 is completely ridiculous and I suspect that it just conveniently corresponds to when you began to follow UT football.  Don't be afraid of history.  Learn it instead.

I think it’s mainly to keep it reasonable because if we go all the way back to Bobby Lane etc it would be even harder to list out. Perhaps the next exercise is to list out the top 25 ‘61-‘91 etc. 

92 is when a certain moderator  graduated from Texas.

Man!! I had to leave off some studs. Do you know how hard it was to leave off Kai Money 

FWIW, 1992 was also the first year Division I teams had to operate with the 85-scholarship limit.

It’s an arbitrary list with an arbitrary date. If you don’t like it, start your own poll. No need to throw a tantrum.lol

The puerile condescension is a nice touch. I’m sure confusing your personal definition of the ‘modern era’ with an objective historical standard felt terribly profound when you typed it.

Joe mad he had to use a dictionary. 😕

Let's see if we can get some love for Shane Buschele, John Chiles, Keaonte Ingram, Derek Lokey, and any other obscure names....

 

 

All in good fun. But, in reality, mine did have a significant number of dudes that played in the 05 and 09 championship games.

That was really tough!

Using a dictionary is a disability now? I thought you would’ve gone with the classic “muted”
