ATLANTA -- Texas lost two games this season, both to Georgia. The latest, a 22-19 overtime loss Saturday to the Bulldogs in the SEC championship game, means there won't be a first-round bye for the Longhorns in the College Football Playoff.
As gut-wrenching as the loss was for coach Steve Sarkisian and his players, he said it changes nothing in his mind.
"We're going to go compete for a national championship. That's where my mind's at," Sarkisian said.
Texas (11-2) will find out how far it drops Sunday when the committee unveils its final rankings. The Longhorns were No.
