The Arizona State Sun Devils, making their first-ever CFP appearance, face the Texas Longhorns in the Peach Bowl semifinal. Both teams boast strong performances in leading up to the game.
College Football Playoff ( CFP ) action resumes on New Year's Day with two thrilling semifinals. The No. 4 Arizona State Sun Devils make their first-ever CFP appearance, facing off against the No. 5 Texas Longhorns in the Peach Bowl . Arizona State , who were predicted to finish last in the Big 12 in their inaugural season, capped off a remarkable 11-2 campaign with a dominating Big 12 title game victory over Iowa State.
Quarterback Sam Leavitt, a breakout redshirt freshman, is eager to prove himself against Texas's highly-touted quarterback Quinn Ewers. Texas, the highest-seeded non-conference champion in the field, dominated Clemson 38-24 in the CFP opening round, fueled by the impressive performances of running backs Jaydon Blue and Quintrevion Wisner. This marks the second meeting between Texas and Arizona State, with the Longhorns emerging victorious in their last encounter in the 2007 Holiday Bowl.
