Washington entered with an undefeated 13–0 record, while Texas entered with a mark of 12–1. Both teams were champions of their respective conferences: Washington defeated Oregon in the Pac-12 Championship and Texas defeated Oklahoma State in the Big 12 Championship. It was the sixth meeting between Washington and Texas, and the Longhorns led the overall series 3–2 entering the game. This was Washington's second CFP appearance, after their selection to the 2016 Peach Bowl, and the game marked Texas's CFP debut.
The game's first score came after four minutes on a 2-yard Dillon Johnsontouchdown rush and Texas tied the game four minutes later. Each team scored two touchdowns in the second quarter: Johnson and Ja'Lynn Polk scored for the Huskies and Byron Murphy II and CJ Baxter scored for the Longhorns. Washington took their largest lead of the game after beginning the second half with thirteen unanswered points from a Jalen McMillan touchdown and two field goals by placekicker Grady Gross. Texas scored a touchdown with fewer than eight minutes left in the game on a 1-yard pass from Quinn Ewers to Adonai Mitchell, pulling them within six points, and they remained there after the teams traded field goals with 2:40 and 1:09 remaining in the game. After a Washington punt, Texas drove down the field but ultimately failed to convert a fourth down play as time expired, giving Washington a six-point win and a bid to the national championship game.
The four teams competing in the Playoff were chosen by the CFP selection committee, whose final rankings were released on December 3, 2023.[6] The committee selected No. 1 Michigan of the Big Ten Conference, No. 2 Washington of the Pac-12 Conference, No. 3 Texas of the Big 12 Conference, and No. 4 Alabama of the Southeastern Conference (SEC). Each team was the champion of its respective conference. Michigan and Washington entered the playoff with undefeated 13–0 records while Texas and Alabama entered 12–1.[7]
The game featured Pac-12 champions Washington and Big 12 champions Texas. This was the sixth all-time meeting between the teams, with Texas entering this matchup leading the overall series, 3–2. They had last played in the year before in the 2022 Alamo Bowl, where Washington defeated Texas, 27–20. The Sugar Bowl was the teams' fourth meeting at a neutral site; Washington had won two of those previous three games.[8]
The game took place in the midst of upcoming conference moves by both teams: Washington joined the Big Ten effective August 2, 2024, while Texas joined the SEC effective July 1.[9]
Washington finished the regular season with an undefeated 12–0 record which included a three-point home win over No. 8 Oregon on October 14.[10][11] During the regular season, they won each of their last eight games by a margin of 10 points or fewer; four of those opponents, including Oregon, were ranked in the AP Poll at the time of the game.[10] Washington's unbeaten conference record set up a rematch with Oregon in the Pac-12 Championship, where the Huskies again won by three points.[12] This improved their record to 13–0 and they were selected as the No. 2 team in the final CFP rankings.[13]
This was Washington's first Sugar Bowl appearance—and the first by any Pac-12 team—and marked Washington's 42nd appearance in a bowl game.[14][10] It was their second CFP appearance, the first being a loss to No. 1 Alabama in the 2016 Peach Bowl.[10]
Texas finished the regular season with a record of 11–1.[8] The Longhorns earned an upset win over No. 3 Alabama in their second game,[15] though roughly a month later they lost to No. 12 Oklahoma in the Red River Rivalry by four points.[16] Texas won each of their next six games, earning them a berth in the 2023 Big 12 Championship Game against No. 19 Oklahoma State.[8][17] Texas won the game, 49–21, behind a career-high 452 passing yards from quarterbackQuinn Ewers,[18] to clinch their first conference championship since 2009.[8] Texas was selected as the No. 3 seed in the final CFP rankings and entered the Sugar Bowl with a record of 12–1.[19][8]
This was Texas's first CFP appearance and their 59th all-time bowl game appearance.[8]

First half
The game opened with a kickoff by Washington placekicker Grady Gross which was returned by Jaydon Blue to the Texas 34-yard line. CJ Baxter rushed for a 16-yard gain and a first down on the game's second play from scrimmage but the Longhorns failed to gain any additional yardage after that play and punted on fourth down. On Washington's first drive, they gained five yards in two plays before a 77-yard pass from Michael Penix Jr. to Ja'Lynn Polk scored the game's first touchdown. Gross made the extra point kick, giving Washington a 7–0 lead. The Longhorns tied the game on their ensuing offensive possession; a 31-yard pass from Quinn Ewers to Baxter on their second play moved them into Washington territory, and Blue scored on a 5-yard rush five plays later. Bert Auburn made the extra point for Texas, pulling Texas even at seven points apiece. Washington's next drive resulted in the game's first three-and-out after the Huskies failed to convert 3rd & 4 and punted on the next play, giving Texas the ball on their own 35-yard line. Washington's Bralen Tricesacked Ewers on first down and the Longhorns suffered holding penalties on back-to-back plays, setting them back to 3rd & 27. They punted on the next play, and the first quarter ended with Washington in possession of the ball on the Texas 26-yard line five plays later.[27]
The Huskies began the second quarter with a 17-yard gain on a rush by Tybo Rogers, and a 1-yard rush by Dillon Johnson three plays later put them back in the lead by seven points. The ensuing Texas drive saw a net total of six yards gained ended with a three-and-out, but the Ryan Sanborn punt was muffed by Washington's Germie Bernard and recovered for Texas by Morice Blackwell Jr. at the Huskies' 22-yard line. Texas ran three offensive plays before tying the game on a 1-yard touchdown rush by Byron Murphy II. Following a touchback, Washington gained 52 yards to open the possession on a pass from Penix to Rome Odunze but gained only nine yards on the three following plays and decided to go for it on 4th & 1 but failed to gain the required yard. This gave Texas the ball via a turnover on downs but the Longhorns punted four plays later. On their ensuing drive, Washington again faced 4th & 1 and again elected to go for it. Johnson carried the ball on the play and gained five yards, giving the Huskies a first down, and the team gained a further two first downs on their next three plays. The drive concluded with a 29-yard touchdown pass from Penix to Polk, restoring Washington's seven-point lead with eighty seconds left in the half. Texas began their next drive with three first downs in their first six plays and reached the Washington 3-yard line following a personal foul and Baxter scored a rushing touchdown on the next play. The game again tied, Washington took a knee to run out the remaining seventeen seconds and the game went to halftime.[27]
Second half
Washington began the third quarter with possession of the ball and completed an eight-play drive, using six completed passes by Penix, with a 19-yard Jalen McMillan receiving touchdown. After the ensuing extra point and kickoff, Texas fumbled on their first offensive play of the half. The ball was recovered by Washington's Asa Turner at the Texas 33-yard line, and the Huskies capitalized with a 19-yard gain on their next play and a 26-yard field goal scored by Gross to conclude the drive and give them a 31–21 lead. Texas regained the ball at their own 20-yard line with 7:29 left in the quarter and gained 16 yards on their first play following a rush by Blue but a false start penalty set them back five yards and they ultimately punted on 4th & 5. Beginning their next drive on their own 19-yard line, the Huskies reached Texas territory in five plays and reached the red zone on their last play of the third quarter.[27]
The fourth quarter started with an incomplete pass followed by a 40-yard field goal made by Gross, increasing Washington's lead to thirteen points. Texas suffered their second fumble on their next possession; after three plays, Blue fumbled following a pass from Ewers and the ball was recovered at the Washington 24-yard line by Ralen Goforth. A 15-yard gain on second down were the only yards the Huskies gained on their ensuing drive, which resulted in a punt which was returned by Xavier Worthy to the Texas 28-yard line. A 38-yard gain on a 3rd & 5 pass from Ewers to Worthy put the Longhorns offense in the Washington red zone, and four plays later they scored on a 1-yard pass from Ewers to Adonai Mitchell. The extra point, made by Auburn, pulled Texas within six points. Following a touchback, Washington reached midfield in four plays and shortly afterward gained 32 yards on a pass from Penix to Odunze. After gaining no yards on the next three plays, Gross made a 27-yard field goal, giving Washington a 37–28 lead. Texas scored a field goal of their own on their next drive and attempted an onside kick but were unsuccessful, giving Washington the ball on the Texas 44-yard line. Washington went three-and-out on the drive and punted. The Longhorns got the ball on their own 31-yard line following a penalty for kick catch interference and reached the Washington 28-yard line following a 41-yard pass on third down. After another first down, on a 16-yard pass to Blue, Texas lost a yard and then threw two incomplete passes, giving them a 4th & 11. On the play, Ewers threw an incomplete pass intended for Mitchell with no time remaining, giving Washington a 37–31 victory.[27]
