Unexpected Roadblock: Why Texas Just Shut Down Ohio State’s Big Week 1 Showdown Request
Here we go — the Ohio State-Texas rematch we’ve been salivating over is right around the corner, but something smells fishy in the scheduling kitchen. The Buckeyes tried to spice things up by nudging the game from a standard Saturday afternoon slot into a prime-time Sunday night showdown — you know, make it the kind of kickoff that wakes up college football fans from their summer nap. But Texas? Nope, not having it. They shut down the idea like a two-eared dog ignoring a squirrel. Sure, noon kickoff might seem boring on paper, but maybe the Longhorns are playing chess while we’re stuck on checkers — homefield advantage tangling with late-night jitters and travel hassles. Is this a missed opportunity for college football’s first major thrill fest of the season, or just Texas protecting its turf? Either way, the plot thickens, and I can’t help but wonder: would you take primetime drama over mid-day sunshine for this heavyweight bout? LEARN MORE.
A rematch of last season’s thrilling Cotton Bowl Classic between Ohio State and Texas is slated for Week 1. The Buckeyes had an idea to make the big game even better, but the Longhorns have apparently refused it.
