Watch what Texas coach Steve Sarkisian said about Ohio State pregame

We are just days away from seeing athletic young men run out of the tunnel in the Horseshoe wearing scarlet and gray. The Week 1 game of 2025 takes on even more meaning this year because Ohio State will play host to the No. 1-ranked Texas Longhorns, a rematch of last season’s CFP semifinal Cotton Bowl.

OSU won that one in epic fashion, and this one figures to be an even tougher matchup for the Buckeyes to walk away from with a win.

But Texas head coach Steve Sarkisian knows that it won’t be easy for his Longhorns either. He met with the media this week to preview the titanic clash and heaped praise on Ohio State while also showing a quiet confidence in what his team will be able to do. If you haven’t had a chance to watch and hear what Sarkisian said about OSU, you can watch the entire press conference here, thanks to the YouTube channel of CW39 Houston.

Watch below and listen to Sark discuss Arch Manning, the respect he has for Ohio State, the environment the Longhorns will be dealing with, and much, much more.

As a reminder, the game is scheduled to kick off at Noon ET on Fox, and we’ll be there for all of it. Before that, during this week, we’ll continue to preview and dissect the matchup, so check back often.
