Thanks to a little help from the Texas Longhorns, the Oklahoma State football team will be heading to New Orleans to face the Ole Miss Rebels in the 2016 Allstate Sugar Bowl on New Year’s Day in the Mercedes-Benz Superdome.
The Sugar Bowl, who hosted a national semi-final game for last season’s College Football playoff, will now host the top non-playoff SEC and Big 12 teams over the next two seasons. With Baylor’s 23-17 loss to Texas today, the Cowboys were able to move up to No. 2 in the conference, due to holding the tiebreaker over TCU, who finished the season No.
