The pre-game buildup was primarily focused on the two high-powered offenses, both of whom were led by strong passing attacks led by quarterbacks Johnny Manziel and Landry Jones respectively. Both teams also had several quality wide receivers, but both were average to below average defensively. Experts were split in their prognostications, but most predicted a high-scoring game.
Texas A&M defeated Oklahoma 41–13 to win the Cotton Bowl Classic and to finish the season with an 11–2 record. Manziel rushed for 229 yards during the game, a bowl record, rushing for two touchdowns and throwing for two more. Though the halftime score was 14–13 Texas A&M, the Aggies went on to score 27 unanswered second half points to win the game.
This was the Sooners' second Cotton Bowl; they had won the 2002 game, defeating the Arkansas Razorbacks by a score of 10–3.[4] The Sooners were the first team since Florida in 1993 to play against the teams with the top 3 Heisman vote-getters for that season (having played against 3rd-place finisher Collin Klein from Kansas State, runner-up Manti Te'o from Notre Dame, and Heisman winner Manziel from Texas A&M); they lost to all three.[5]
The Aggies' first season as members of the SEC was led by freshman quarterback and 2012 Heisman Trophy winner Manziel, the Aggies posted a 6–2 conference record (10–2 overall), good for a second-place tie in the SEC West Division (tied with the LSU Tigers). In perhaps their biggest game of the season, the Aggies defeated defending national champions and 2013 BCS National Championship Game participants the Alabama Crimson Tide in Tuscaloosa, 29–24.
This was the Aggies' thirteenth Cotton Bowl appearance; with the win they hold a 5–8 record in the game.[6] With the appearance the Aggies became the first program to participate in the Cotton Bowl as members of three different conferences with automatic Cotton Bowl tie-ins (the Southwest Conference, the Big 12, and the SEC).
Pre-game buildup
Coming into the game, much of the buildup surrounded the matchup of two top-flight quarterbacks,[7] senior Landry Jones for Oklahoma and Heisman Trophy winner freshman Johnny Manziel for Texas A&M, both of whom ranked in the top-15 nationally in passing yards.[8] In the all-time series between the two schools, Oklahoma had won 19 games to Texas A&M's 11.[9] This was the teams' first meeting since Texas A&M left the Big 12 for the SEC.[9] Aggies coach Kevin Sumlin had been an assistant under Bob Stoops; coming into the game Stoops was 13–4 against his former assistants.[10]
Oklahoma
Oklahoma compiled a 10 win, 2 loss record during the regular season and was left out of the BCS for the second consecutive year.
Offense
Oklahoma's offense was led by their senior quarterback Jones who was primarily responsible for the Sooners' 224 passing first downs, which was best in the country, and their 52.2 third down conversion success rate, which was fourth-best in the country.[11] Jones, a senior who was ranked by ESPN as the number five quarterback prospect for the 2013 NFL draft,[12] completed 66% of his 555 passes totaling 4267 yards, which was second-best in the country,[8] and 30 touchdowns.[13] Jones threw primarily to a trio of upperclassmen wide receivers each of whom ended the season with more than 800 receiving yards, junior Kenny Stills, junior Jalen Saunders, who transferred in the offseason from Fresno State,[14] and senior Justin Brown, who transferred to the Sooners in the offseason amid sanctions from the NCAA in wake of the Penn State child sex abuse scandal.[14] Oklahoma's rushing attack, which was second-worst in the Big 12 in terms of total yards,[15] was led by juniors Damien Williams and Brennan Clay, who amassed 946 yards and 11 touchdowns and 555 yards and 6 touchdowns respectively.[16][17]
Defense
Oklahoma's defense improved after head coach Bob Stoops' brother, former Sooners co-defensive coordinator and defensive backs coach Mike Stoops, returned to Oklahoma as the defensive coordinator after having served the previous seven and a half seasons as head coach of the Arizona Wildcats where he totaled 41 wins and 50 losses[18] and was fired midway through the 2011 season.[19] Oklahoma's defense was led in tackles by safety Tony Jefferson, who recorded 113 becoming just the sixth Sooner defensive back ever to amass more than 100.[9] In addition to Jefferson, Oklahoma was represented by defensive back Aaron Colvin on the All-Big 12 first team and defensive lineman David King and defensive back Demontre Hurst on the second team.[20]
Texas A&M
It was announced on December 12, 2012, that Texas A&M's offensive coordinator Kliff Kingsbury had left the university for the head coaching position at his alma mater, Texas Tech.[21] Consequently, coach Kevin Sumlin announced that running backs coach and recruiting coordinator Clarence McKinney would call plays during the bowl.[22]
Offense
The Aggies' offense averaged 44.8 points per game, third in the Football Bowl Subdivision (FBS).[10] A&M's offense was led in both passing and rushing by Heisman Trophy winning quarterback Johnny Manziel.[23] Manziel threw primarily to two receivers, fellow redshirt freshman Mike Evans, who totaled 82 receptions for 1105 yards and 5 touchdowns,[23] and senior Ryan Swope, who totaled 72 receptions for 913 yards and 8 touchdowns.[23] Together, the duo combined for 45 percent of the Aggies' targets, catching 139 of 199 passes for 1,845 yards and 12 touchdowns.[24] Aside from Manziel, junior Ben Malena amassed 808 rushing yards and 8 touchdowns,[25] while senior Christine Michael scored 8 rushing touchdowns to go along with 417 rushing yards.[26] The Aggies also had two projected first-round draft picks on their offensive line, junior tackles Luke Joeckel and Jake Matthews.[10][27][28]
Defense
The Aggies' defense was led by first-year defensive coordinator Mark Snyder, who had been a head coach at Marshall and defensive coordinator for Ohio State.[29] Their leading tackler was junior defensive lineman Damontre Moore,[30] who achieved first-team All-SEC accolades during the regular season[31] and declared early to enter the 2013 NFL draft, where he is considered one of the top prospects, and was the second overall pick in Todd McShay's initial mock draft.[32][33]
Game summary
First quarter
Texas A&M got the ball to start the game and marched down the field on an 8-play, 75-yard drive that culminated in the first of Manziel's two rushing touchdowns, the first of which went for 23 yards. Oklahoma took over at their own 25 yard line after a touchback on the kickoff. Jones was 6/8 for 43 yards passing on the drive. The Sooners got as far as second and goal at the one yard line prior to two failed plays and a false start penalty that set up a 23-yard field goal to make the score 7–3 Texas A&M.

Once again, the Sooners stalled in the red zone and were again forced to settle for a field goal, this time a 24-yarder by Michael Hunnicutt. The next two drives by Texas A&M and Oklahoma both ended in interceptions thrown by Manziel and Jones respectively. Texas A&M took over at the Oklahoma 48 yard line following Jones' interception.
