The Ohio State Buckeyes used two enormous plays, and one incredible 13-play drive to knock off the Texas Longhorns, 28-14 in the 2025 Cotton Bowl to advance to the National Championship Game against Notre Dame.
After the game, Ohio State head coach Ryan Day, QB Will Howard, and DE Jack Sawyer discussed the plays that will go down in Buckeye history, as well as how Texas shut down Jeremiah Smith and how the Buckeyes worked around that, what it meant to Howard to finally beat Texas, what it meant to Sawyer to make an iconic play like his strip and score touchdown, and much more.
