Red River chaos: Oklahoma knocks off No. 1 Texas 27-24 on a field goal as time expires after two late Arch Manning interceptions
Yahoo Sports • • general
Key Points:
- Oklahoma defeated No. 1 Texas 27-24 on a last-second 47-yard field goal by Tate Sandell, capitalizing on two fourth-quarter interceptions by Texas QB Arch Manning.
- Courtland Guillory's interception with 19 seconds left set up the game-winning kick, aided by two critical catches from Isaiah Sategna III to get into field goal range.
- Texas missed a potential game-winning 53-yard field goal earlier in the fourth quarter, and Manning threw two interceptions in the final period, including his first career pick-6.
- Oklahoma's offense struggled, totaling just 238 yards, but the defense and special teams contributed significantly, including a blocked punt returned for a touchdown.
- Texas' offense continues to underperform, with Manning throwing five interceptions in five games and the running game averaging under 4 yards per carry, casting doubt on Manning's Heisman chances and Texas' playoff hopes.
