The Texas Longhorns vs. Ohio State Buckeyes Goodyear Cotton Bowl Classic matchup on Friday night has a lot on the line.
For the college football national championship, the victor of the game will play the winner of the Orange Bowl.
However, that is nothing compared to the bet made between Vice President-elect JD Vance and Senator Ted Cruz.
What We Know: On Tuesday, the senator urged Vance to wager on Friday night’s game on the social media site X.
After accepting, Vance made fun of Cruz by inquiring what kind of ice cream he should deliver after the Longhorns’ defeat.
What’s at stake: The loser of the wager has to deliver the winning team’s shirt while carrying food and drink from their home state.
What They’re Saying: In addition to some supporters of the Texas A&M Aggies, another Texas team, the wager sparked comments from both sides exchanging insults and jabs on who would win the game.
In reference to the “Cruz Curse,” which some sports fans think causes Texas teams to lose when the senator attends a game, Aggie supporters urged Cruz to attend the game on Friday.
Numerous online petitions from supporters requesting that Cruz be prohibited from attending sporting events involving their favorite teams have been triggered by the alleged curse.
