In at least one way, the 2025 college football season isn’t over Texas.

But now it is, after the Bowl Season organization awarded Texas football with the Coca-Cola Team Challenge.

That’s according to KXAN.

From KXAN:

“[The award honors] the team and its fans for their on-field success, community service and fan engagement. Behind Arch Manning’s huge performance with 376 total yards and four touchdowns, the Longhorns beat the Wolverines 41-27 at Camping World Stadium in Orlando on Dec. 31. Texas was down more than 20 scholarship players for the game due to transfers and opt-outs, and Michigan had just three players opt out of the game.”
