Here is what Texas did well and needs to improve as they head into the College Football Playoffs.
The Texas Longhorns will have to win an extra game in the playoffs now after losing their first SEC Championship to the Georgia Bulldogs in overtime 22-19.
When you look at this stat sheet for both teams, there are some eye-glaring stats, so let's discuss some important takeaways from this game for Texas.Ewers' stat line is impressive—358 yards on 27 completions. But even with that, Texas only scored once. One big play was the 37-yard field goal that was taken off the board because of a false start on Texas. Following the penalty, Auburn then missed the 42-yard attempt that would have given the Longhorns three extra very much-needed points on the game.
Golden has elevated himself over everyone in this receiving core. His route-running, catching, and yards after catch have all been incredible and Texas is right to continue to give him more targets.You could really say that the disparity of special team play between both decided the game. Losing by three and missing two field goals is a pretty convincing argument.
