January 14, 2025 - Texas falls to Ohio State

The No. 5 Texas Longhorns had a winning game plan in one of the only games they were at a talent disadvantage this year but couldn't make enough plays to overcome the No. 8 Ohio State Buckeyes.

Defensively, Texas had a clear plan to shut down the high-powered Buckeyes and executed it to perfection for most of the game, save for one major breakdown that ended up creating a deficit for Texas. Offensively, they struggled with the athleticism of Ohio State, but nearly put together enough to get the job done - with a trip to the red zone once again being the Longhorns' Kryptonite.
