December 6, 2023 - Texas wins the Big 12, CFP Berth

The Longhorn Republic

The No. 3 Texas Longhorns did what they needed to to in Arlington, putting together a lopsided win over the Oklahoma State Cowboys and proving their place among the four best teams in college football.

Quinn Ewers and the offense were electric from the start, while the defense continued the standard of excellence we've come to expect from that group all year. The difference between this game and many others was the Longhorns' ability to close out their opponent.

Now, despite some controversy, the Longhorns are headed to their first-ever CFP to square off against another familiar foe -- the Washington Huskies.
