Texas dominates Oklahoma in the Red River Rivalry, but bigger challenges lie ahead


In a surprising turn of events, the Texas Longhorns defeated the Oklahoma Sooners 34-3 in the annual Red River Rivalry game. Despite a shaky start with an early interception, the Longhorns rebounded and dominated the game by minimizing mistakes and capitalizing on turnovers. Quarterback Quinn Ewers, playing his first game after an injury, performed well with 199 passing yards and two touchdowns. The Longhorns were also boosted by Quintrevion Wisner’s rushing performance and a disciplined game with only five penalties.

The result highlighted Oklahoma’s struggles under coach Brent Venables, with a lackluster passing offense and ineffective rushing attack. The Longhorns’ impressive win raises questions about their strength as a national title contender, especially given the underwhelming nature of their schedule. While they have won games by a large margin this season, their victories have come against flawed teams.

Moving on from the Big 12 to the SEC, the Longhorns face a tougher test in their upcoming game against Georgia. Beating Oklahoma may have earned them bragging rights, but the game against the Bulldogs will provide a better indication of their championship potential. The win against Oklahoma showcased Texas’ ability to capitalize on opportunities and control the game, but their true strength as a contender will be tested in the coming weeks.
