The University of Texas Longhorns and Ohio State University Buckeyes are on their way to the College Football playoff semifinals. Both universities delivered victories on New Year’s Day. The Longhorns beat the Arizona State University Sun Devils 39-31 in overtime in the Peach Bowl at Mercedes-Benz Stadium in Atlanta, Georgia in what was by far the most exciting game of the 12-team College Football Playoff to date. The Buckeyes then beat the University of Oregon Ducks 41-21 in the Rose Bowl in Pasadena, California. This was the first loss all season for the Ducks, who won 13 straight games this season prior to Wednesday’s loss. The Longhorns will now face the Buckeyes on January 10 in the Cotton Bowl at AT&T Stadium from Dallas, Texas.
