Texas coach Steve Sarkisian said on Friday that Ohio State is "the best team in college football" and the Longhorns will need their best performance in the Goodyear Cotton Bowl Classic on Jan. 10 to beat the Buckeyes.
"I need Longhorn Nation to show out in Arlington," Sarkisian said. "We're going to need everything we've got to try to win this game. Clearly, we're massive underdogs. Nobody's going to give us a shot. ... This is the best team in college football, and we're going to have to make sure that we put our best forward to give ourselves a chance to win the game.
