Updated: Jan 10, 2025 - 11:48 PM ET
The second semifinal matchup of the inaugural 12-team College Football Playoff provided another exciting game.
No. 8 seed Ohio State took down No. 5 seed Texas, 28-14, in the Cotton Bowl and secured a berth in the National Championship Game. Texas was a yard away from tying the game in the final minutes, but Ohio State came up with a pair of pivotal defensive plays to seal the victory.
Ohio State will face No. 7 seed Notre Dame, which took down No. 6 seed Penn State in a last-second thriller in the Orange Bowl at Hard Rock Stadium in Miami on Thursday, in the national championship game on Jan. 20.
Here are the highlights, with analysis from FOX Sports college football writers Michael Cohen and Laken Litman!
