The winner will advance to play for the national championship against Notre Dame on Jan. 20 in Atlanta. The Irish secured their spot by hitting a late field goal Thursday night to defeat Penn State 27-24.

The Longhorns, despite playing in Arlington, are entering the Cotton Bowl as six-point underdogs to the Buckeyes.

Ohio State comes into the game with a 12-2 record, while Texas holds a 13-2 record.

The 15 games the Longhorns have played this season are the most ever in a single season. If they can defeat Ohio State in their 16th game, they will move on to a 17th game with the national title on the line.

KPRC2 Sports Director Randy McIlvoy discussed all things Longhorns with longtime Voice of the Longhorns Craig Way, who has served in that role for 24 years and with the UT network for nearly 40 years.
