I was referring to Texas and SC.
OSU was a team that no one gave a shot outside of Columbus all season. It was not until Oklahoma St. upset OU late in the season that OSU got the chance to play in the title game. And do not underestimate how much those OSU seniors learned through all the adversities that they had to go through during their years. You are talking about the firing of a coach, the program hitting its rock bottom after the loss to South Carolina, the hiring of a new coach, the wins over Michigan, all cumulating up to the Fiesta Bowl against Miami for the national title.
Texas is a very solid team, and if VY and those RBs are on the top of their game, has a shot to beat SC. However, I think UT's defense is overrated, and their DBs are not very strong. On the other side of the ball, VY will go up against a very physical DL led by Jackson and backed by speedy and physical LBs plus Darnell Bing. VY's performance against OSU is not going to be enough to beat USC. Heck, it really wasn't enough to beat OSU considering that OSU really should have blown UT out by the number of opportunities it squandered. And if you look at the rest of their schedule, no one else on their schedule really catches your eyes.
