Few could have imagined the way that Texas football came out in the first half of the Allstate Sugar Bowl against the Georgia Bulldogs in New Orleans, LA, on New Years Day 2019. Texas football absolutely came out of the gates firing with an early lead in the first half that never wavered heading into the locker room at halftime.
In the first half of the Sugar Bowl, Texas football played inspired in its first New Year’s Six Bowl game/BCS Bowl in nearly a full decade. The 2009 BCS National Championship Game loss to the Alabama Crimson Tide was the last time that the Texas football program made it to a stage like this.
