Austin, Texas - November 28 - Matthew McConaughey believes Austin is on the brink of becoming the epicenter of college football after Texas Longhorns secured a significant victory over Texas A&M Aggies. Appearing on ESPN's "SportsCenter with Scott Van Pelt," McConaughey warned of an atmosphere "touching the Richter scale" when the Longhorns host No. 1 Ohio State on September 12 at Darrell K Royal-Texas Memorial Stadium.
The Texas supporter anticipated a unique intensity for the sold-out game, predicting over 100,000 fans from Texas would create an overwhelming home-field advantage. He claimed the stadium would be "lit from the turf to the sky," describing an electric atmosphere unlike any witnessed recently.
McConaughey pointed to a newfound mental strength within the Longhorns, describing a level of belief among the players that he has not encountered before. He expressed confidence that this newfound resolve would be instrumental in Texas' upcoming showdown with Ohio State, which the Buckeyes won in 2024 and eliminated Texas from the College Football Playoff.
The matchup also presents an opportunity for Arch Manning, who completed 17 of 30 passes for 170 yards, a touchdown, and an interception in last season's loss. With the home crowd and enhanced confidence, McConaughey expressed readiness for Texas to make history in its biggest test of the young season.
