The two other semifinalists, Notre Dame and Penn State, are traveling more than 1,200 miles each to the Orange Bowl this week. Ohio State and Penn State each traveled more than 2,200 to their quarterfinal. Texas’ 928-mile trip to Atlanta will be the furthest the Longhorns must go.

Undoubtedly, the two linemen have played a huge role in the success of the Texas offense. The two helped the Longhorns reach 292 rushing yards against Clemson in the first round of the playoff, although both were sidelined for some of the game.
