Oklahoma Defeats No. 1 Texas in Thrilling Red River Rivalry

DALLAS — In a dramatic finish, Oklahoma defeated No. 1 Texas 27-24 in the Red River rivalry game on Saturday, with Tate Sandell kicking a 47-yard field goal as time expired.

The Sooners, now 3-2 overall and 1-1 in the Southeastern Conference, achieved their first win against a top-ranked team since 2007. Texas, with a record of 4-1 and 1-1 in conference play, saw Arch Manning throw three touchdown passes but also suffer two costly interceptions.

Texas had opportunities to win, including a missed 53-yard field goal attempt by Gianni Spetic late in the game. Oklahoma's defense scored a touchdown after a blocked punt, and a pick-6 by Peyton Bowen further contributed to their victory. The Longhorns had previously won seven consecutive games, raising questions about their ranking before this loss.
