The Longhorns‘ win in the College Football Playoff means they will play Arizona State in the semifinals. Texas versus Arizona State is scheduled for 1 p.m. CT New Year’s Day at the Peach Bowl in Atlanta.
The winner of that game moves onto the CFP semifinal at the Cotton Bowl. The potential opponents at that point would be Oregon or the winner of Tennessee and Ohio State’s first-round game.
