NOTE: After this episode was recorded, the Cotton Bowl released the following statement.We continue to monitor weather reports, and over the last 24 hours, the forecast for later this week has improved according to the National Weather Service.

North Texas highways are already being brined and plans are in place to assure a safe environment for everyone in and around AT&T Stadium on game day. The teams arrive tomorrow, as planned, and the 2025 CFP Semifinal at the 89th Goodyear Cotton Bowl Classic will kick off on Friday evening as scheduled.The Ohio State Buckeyes and Texas Longhorns will arrive in Dallas on Wednesday evening, but starting on Thursday, a winter storm is going to hit the Dallas/Fort Worth metroplex. North Texas isn't accustomed to dealing with ice and snow, and the storm is expected to cause big issues with road conditions. So could the Cotton Bowl be delayed by a day?Tony Gerdeman of BuckeyeHuddle.com joins host Tom Orr in Texas with the latest on the forecast and its impact on the game. Plus a preview of Wednesday's team arrivals, and some of the biggest storylines of the week.
