Texas football drove toward the end zone, with a chance to tie the game with a touchdown and win it with an extra point Monday night.

Quinn Ewers was tackled from behind and ended up throwing the ball out of bounds on third down, but a single second was left on the clock, giving the Longhorns a final shot in the end zone.

He dropped back and threw the ball to Adonai Mitchell in the end zone, but the wide receiver was unable to come up with the catch in the end zone. As a result, Washington won 37-31 and will advance to play Michigan in the national championship next Monday in Houston.
