Longhorns Daily News: Peach Bowl says there’s ‘simply not enough room’ for Texas mascot Bevo to attend

It seems the Texas Longhorns will again be without their mascot in live attendance.

Peach Bowl officials have declined to allow Bevo to attend the Peach Bowl later this week.

“We love all of the great traditions of college football and no doubt, Bevo is one of the best,” Peach Bowl officials said in a statement earlier this week. “But the unfortunate reality is there simply is not enough room on the sidelines of Mercedes-Benz Stadium.”

They continued, “With the constraints of the stadium and prioritizing the safety of Bevo, the players, all the network cameras support staff, cheerleaders, and photographers, we unfortunately will not be able to have Bevo on the field at the CFP Quarterfinal at the Chick-Fil-A Peach Bowl.
