The Texas Longhorns secured a 24-23 comeback victory against No. 1 Ohio State, fueled by a three-touchdown fourth quarter led by quarterback Arch Manning and running back Hollywood Smothers. The win has boosted the team's national ranking and increased recruiting momentum, specifically drawing interest from five-star wide receiver prospect Brysen Wright, who noted the team's grit during his visit to Austin.

Following the victory, head coach Steve Sarkisian provided injury updates ahead of the Week 3 matchup against UTSA. Tight end Nick Townsend is being evaluated for a knee injury sustained during a kickoff against Ohio State. Additionally, offensive lineman Laurence Seymore is reported to be fine following a previous injury, while defensive lineman Justus Terry suffered a foot injury during pregame warmups.
