Texas enters Saturday night as the No. 3 team in the current College Football Playoff rankings, on track to both qualify for the 12-team field and earn a first-round bye (given to the winner of each of the Power 4 conferences). The Longhorns will quickly lose that comfortable position with a loss Saturday night.

Thirteen years ago, future Hall of Fame kicker Justin Tucker nailed a 40-yard field goal that sent Texas to an emotional 27-25 victory over Texas A&M. The next year, the Aggies joined the SEC and the game went dark.
