Loreal Sarkisian, known as the first lady of Texas football, is a former track athlete and has gained notoriety for her posts on fashion and her game day attire. She has been married to the Texas head coach since June 2020.

Steve is looking to lead the Longhorns to their first national title since January 2006. He has led Texas to the College Football Playoff the last two seasons, losing in the Semifinals to Washington and Ohio State.

Loreal Sarkisian is known as a style and fashion guru, and her outfits on game days are closely followed by fans. But with the regular season still months away, the outfits she shares on social media will have to do for now.

Last week, the Loreal posted some pictures of her and Texas head coach Steve Sarkisian on her Instagram account with only her signature message as a caption.

"XOLO 🤍," Loreal wrote.

In the pictures, Loreal is wearing a short white dress with a belt, as well as a blue handbag and blue heels, in a very stylish manner.

As for Steve Sarkisian, he is clad in a white button shirt and jeans, wearing a white cowboy hat. In the last picture, the couple is holding up the "Hook'em Horns" sign with their hands.

The Texas Longhorns will open the season on Aug. 30 with a trip to Columbus to face the defending national champion, the Ohio State Buckeyes. It will be a crack at revenge for the Longhorns, who lost to the Buckeyes in the CFP semifinals last season.

Allan studied Communications at Anáhuac University, where he learned what would become the basis of a trade that was already a dream of his before starting college.

His favorite team is Army West Point as when he was young, Allan lived in West Point for a couple of years, went to pretty much every home game, a couple of Army-Navy games and even got to meet some of the players.

Allan's favorite players of all time include Tommie Frazier, who was unbelievable during the Nebraska dynasty of the early 90's. Tim Tebow was also a favorite, mainly because of his leadership skills, although he was also awesome on the football field. As a fan of defensive football, (or what's left of it), Sean Taylor could take over a game for Miami.

Allan has always considered himself a student of the game more than a fan of it. So the historical part and evolution of the game, as well as the ins and outs of what happens on the field, and being able to put it into words for the audience, are his biggest strengths.

Besides sports, Allan enjoys reading books, watching movies and spending time with his dogs.
