The Texas Longhorns had zero players selected in the NFL Draft for the first time since 1937.

Texas was one of just five schools from college football's five power conferences (Big 12, SEC, ACC, Big Ten, Pac-12) to suffer the ignominious feat. Illinois, Northwestern, Rutgers and fellow Big 12 member Kansas were the others.

Jackson Jeffcoat was the Big 12 Defensive player of the Year.
