As the Texas Longhorns' tried to punch the ball into the end zone from the one-yard line to tie the game late in the fourth quarter, they had to get through Ohio State's premier red zone defense. On second-and-goal from the Ohio State one-yard line, the Longhorns tried a toss play to Quintrevion Wisner which resulted in a seven-yard loss.
The big loss led to Ohio State linebacker Jack Sawyer's game-sealing strip sack and fumble return touchdown two plays later. The Buckeyes won the Cotton Bowl game 28-14 and punched their ticket to the national championship game against Notre Dame on Jan. 20.
