Oklahoma upsets No. 1 Texas in Red River Rivalry

Red River Rivalry college football Oklahoma Sooners Texas Longhorns upset

Unranked Oklahoma Sooners pulled off a major upset against No. 1 Texas Longhorns, winning 27-24 in the 122nd Red River Rivalry at the Cotton Bowl. The victory was secured by kicker Tate Sandell, who drilled a 47-yard field goal as time expired.

Oklahoma’s win relied heavily on special teams and defensive plays. Danny Okoye blocked a Texas punt that was recovered for a touchdown by Dakoda Fields, and Peyton Bowen returned an interception 42 yards for a touchdown in the fourth quarter. These scores offset the Sooners' offensive struggles, as they finished with only 238 total yards.

Texas, led by quarterback Arch Manning, held a 17-7 halftime lead and a 24-17 advantage late in the fourth quarter. However, Manning threw two critical fourth-quarter interceptions, including one with 19 seconds remaining that set up Oklahoma’s winning drive. Manning finished with 260 passing yards and three touchdowns. The loss marks the first defeat of the season for the top-ranked Longhorns.
