According to longtime Texas football insider Chip Brown at 24/7 Sports, there was a push from Ohio State to move the game to the Sunday of Labor Day weekend on August 31st where it could have a new and improved timeslot. However, Texas reportedly turned down the offer to stick to its currently scheduled Saturday playing.

So, when a game time wasn’t part of FOX’s announcement on May 12, speculation began that perhaps Ohio State was trying to move the game to a later time slot.
The answer is, yes, Ohio State officials were trying to move the game – to the late afternoon or evening of Sunday, Aug. 31 on Labor Day weekend, multiple sources close to the situation told Horns247 late Wednesday night.
Those sources said Ohio State’s attempt to move the game has failed because Texas wouldn’t agree to moving the game off of its contracted Aug. 30 date.
“Texas said no,” a source close to the situation told Horns247.
So, look for confirmation soon that Texas and Ohio State will, indeed, kick off at 11 am CT (12 pm ET) on Aug. 30 as part of FOX’s Big Noon Kickoff.
 
College Football Playoff administrators approved a proposal for a straight-seeding model for the 2025 postseason, confirms Brandon Marcello of CBS Sports. This represents a major change in Year 2 of the expanded playoff. Happy trails to automatic first-round byes for the four highest-rated conference champions and welcome to a less complex power-ranking of the selection committee's top 12 teams.

Under the new seeding process, the top-four teams in the selection committee's final rankings get a first-round pass to the quarterfinals. Last season, the four highest-ranked conference champions earned that distinction regardless of where those teams were slotted by the selection committee.
 
LSU never hurts for WRs.

Him flipping does nothing to the squad.
