Head Coach Steve Sarkisian has Texas (13-2) in the postseason for the first time since 2009. While UT has run roughshod over the vast majority of their 22nd-ranked schedule, Texas was unable to avenge their only loss to Georgia losing a close 22-19 decision in the SEC Championship.

Ohio State and (5) Texas will meet in the Cotton Bowl on Friday, Jan. 10 with a spot in the College Football Playoff National Championship on the line. This will be just the fourth meeting all-time, and the first since 2009,
