Texas’ doomed drive, Quinn Ewers’ fumble leave Horns one step from playing for title once again

New York Times  

ARLINGTON, Texas — A year ago, Texas was one play away from playing for a national championship. On fourth down, Ewers was sacked, fumbled and Ohio State’s Jack Sawyer recovered, taking the ball 83 yards the other way to seal a 28-14 win that left the Longhorns in a daze. “First-and-goal on the 1 and we don’t score, quite frankly, you probably don’t deserve to win that way,” Texas coach Steve Sarkisian said. “That’s been the key point of the whole year, finishing in the red zone, finish, finish, finish,” Banks said, pounding his open left hand with his closed right fist for emphasis. “It definitely sucks because in that big moment, when we really needed it, we couldn’t get it done.” It wasn’t Texas’ only misstep in a game the Longhorns were good enough to win.
