The College Football Playoff features a New Year’s Day Tripleheader that will open with the Peach Bowl matchup between the Big 12 champion Arizona State Sun Devils and the SEC runner-up Texas Longhorns. The Sun Devils took the opening round off with a bye week, while the Longhorns hosted the Clemson Tigers and won that first-round game going away. Texas was expected to be a serious national championship contender after making the CFP last year. Arizona State was picked for the basement of the Big 12, only to win it in a stunning surprise season.

Last game, the Arizona State Sun Devils won 45-19 against the Iowa State Cyclones as 1.5-point dogs in the Big 12 Championship Game. The game went over the total of 50.5. Arizona State has a record of 11-2 straight up, 10-2 against the spread, and 7-4-1 over/under the total. Arizona State ranks 37th for total offense, 71st for passing, 23rd for rushing, and 30th for scoring. Defensively, they rank 33rd overall, 63rd against the pass, 28th against the rush, and 30th for points allowed. Also, Arizona State ranks 2nd for fewest turnovers lost and 18th for takeaways.
Last game, the Texas Longhorns won 38-24 against the Clemson Tigers as 13.5-point home favorites. The game went over the total of 49.5. Texas has a record of 12-2 straight up, 7-5 against the spread, and 4-7-1 over/under the total. Texas ranks 14th for total offense, 17th for passing, 50th for rushing and 25th for scoring. Defensively, they rank 3rd overall, 2nd against the pass, 10th against the rush, and 2nd for points allowed. Also, Texas ranks 126th for fewest turnovers lost and 3rd for takeaways.
The Longhorns literally ran over No. 12 Clemson on Saturday in their first-round CFP game. Texas finished with 292 yards rushing on 48 carries and had two running backs go over 100 yards.
After stunning the college football world and winning the Big 12, Arizona State received a first-round CFP bye. ASU coach Kenny Dillingham gave his team a week off before beginning preparations for the quarterfinals on Monday.
When they play that game, they’ll have to contend with a Texas offense that manhandled Clemson. The Longhorns racked up 494 yards of offense and averaged 6.1 yards per rush. Junior running back Jaydon Blue had 14 carries for 146 yards and two touchdowns, and sophomore running back Quintrevion Wisner had 15 carries for 110 yards and two touchdowns.
Arizona State’s defense has not allowed a 100-yard rusher since Kansas State’s DJ Giddens rushed for 133 yards in ASU’s 24-14 victory on Nov. 16. The Sun Devils had one of the top run defenses in the nation this season, only allowing 117.5 rushing yards per game.
ASU vs. Texas will be a matchup of strength against strength. The Longhorns only allowed 106.7 rushing yards per game during the regular season.
Dillingham and offensive coordinator Marcus Arroyo like to feed the ball to All-American running back Cam Skattebo, who finished the regular season second in the nation in all-purpose yards with 2,074 (1,568 rushing and 506 receiving).
Skattebo, who finished fifth in the 2024 Heisman Trophy voting, rushed 16 times for 170 yards and 2 touchdowns in Arizona State’s 45-19 Big 12 championship game victory over Iowa State. And he did not play in the fourth quarter.
Texas brings more firepower, depth, balance, and defense. Midnight will strike for Cinderella.
