Students are excited for one last home game they weren't expecting this season. On Saturday, Texas lost to Georgia in the SEC Championship. If the Longhorns won, they would've received a first round bye in the newly structured 12-team playoff format. With the loss, the number five Longhorns will play Clemson on December 21. Being the higher seed in the bracket, Texas will host Clemson for one final home game of the year. "The 5 seed is a good spot to be in," UT student, Ryan Jones said.
