Burnt Orange Kool-Aid is an independent Texas football fan site built by Longhorn fans, for Longhorn fans.

We cover the Horns, give our national rankings, make picks, overreact on game days, and convince ourselves every August that this is definitely the year.

This isn't the place for objective journalism. This is college football through burnt orange-colored glasses — with just enough objectivity to admit when the Horns aren't No. 1.

Pour yourself another glass of Kool-Aid. 🤘

What Is Burnt Orange Kool-Aid?

We’re fans first

The Kool-Aid

BOK isn't trying to be the AP, and we're not pretending to have all the answers. We're here because we love Texas football — the traditions, the rivalries, the Saturdays at DKR, and all the unreasonable optimism that comes with it.

We'll celebrate the wins, complain about the losses, argue about the rankings, and talk ourselves into a national championship run before September.

Because college football is supposed to be fun.
