The No. 5 Texas Longhorns said to start the year that one of their goals of the year was to compete for a national championship. Now they sit just four quarters away from playing in the national championship game, but standing in their way is one of the hottest teams in college football right now — the No. 8 Ohio State Buckeyes. While the Longhorns struggled in their quarterfinal matchup with Arizona State, the Buckeyes plowed through the No. 1 Oregon Ducks, 41-21.
With a trip to Atlanta and the CFP National Championship on the line, both teams will need to be on their A-game to get the job done and punch their tickets.
