In the annual Red River Rivalry game at the Cotton Bowl, the Texas Longhorns surprised many by defeating the Oklahoma Sooners 34-3. Despite an early interception, the Longhorns recovered and dominated the game, forcing crucial turnovers and showcasing strong offensive play. Texas quarterback Quinn Ewers returned from injury to lead the team to victory, supported by a solid rushing game and disciplined play. The result highlighted Oklahoma’s offensive struggles and raised questions about the team’s performance under new coach Brent Venables. However, it remains unclear how much Texas’ win reveals about their potential as a national title contender. While their strong performances this season have been impressive, they have come against teams with flaws. Moving forward, Texas faces a tougher test against Georgia, which will provide a better gauge of their championship aspirations in the competitive SEC. While beating Oklahoma was significant for Texas, the upcoming game against Georgia will be a true measure of their strength and potential in the national title race.
