Texas Longhorns Fall to Georgia – What’s Next?

By
Real Estate Agent with Coldwell Banker Realty ~ 512.750.6899

We cheered loud and proud, but our Longhorns came up short against Georgia.

While the loss stings, there’s no time to dwell — an epic showdown is on the horizon!

No. 5 Texas Football will host No. 12 Clemson in the 2024 College Football Playoff first round at 3 p.m. CT on Saturday, Dec. 21, inside Darrell K Royal-Texas Memorial Stadium. It’s the first-ever matchup between these storied programs, promising an unforgettable game!

Catch the action live on TNT/Max, with Dave Pasch (play-by-play), Dusty Dvoracek (analyst), and Taylor McGregor (reporter) calling the game.

What’s at stake? The winner advances to the CFP Quarterfinal at the 57th Chick-fil-A Peach Bowl to face No. 4 Arizona State, the Big 12 Champion, on Jan. 1, 2025, at Noon CT in Mercedes-Benz Stadium, Atlanta — airing on an ABC/ESPN platform.

Our family will be a house divided: My son, a proud Clemson Tiger, will be rooting for his alma mater, while my daughter and husband — devoted University of Texas graduates — will be cheering on the Longhorns.

Who will you be rooting for in this historic matchup? Let’s hear your predictions! Hook ‘em Horns!

I was thinking of you when I was watching the Texas vs. Georgia game and was bummed by the outcome.  It should be an interesting tournament with some good matchups!

Good morning, Dorie... as I have no skin in this game, I have no real preference. Although, having said that, since Clemson is considered a "local" school and many of my neighbors fly Clemson flags, I might need to support them! :)

Since my son is a graduate of Clemson he and his family will be rooting for Clemson Nina Hollander, Broker. My daughter and son-in-law are UT Graduates and Geno went there too so we will be for the Longhorns. Either way our family wins!

I don't have any preference or insight, but I bet it's going to be a lot of fun watching the game - and very boisterous discussions in the family!

Hi Dorie- give you one guess who we'll be rooting for. That was a tough game to watch, and then yesterday, Larry's Jayhawks lost their second game in a row. Yikes!!!
