TUSCALOOSA, Ala. (AP) — Quinn Ewers finished what he started last season, passing for 349 yards and three touchdowns to lead No.
11 Texas to a 34-24 victory over third-ranked Alabama on Saturday night in a huge win for a program trying to climb back into national championship contention.
This amounted to a welcome-to-the-Southeastern Conference moment for a program set to join Alabama & Co. next season.
Alabama had its 21-game home winning streak snapped along with a 57-game regular-season binge against nonconference teams dating to Nick Saban's debut season, 2007.
Alabama's Jalen Milroe delivered big plays passing and running, but also was picked off twice on bad decisions.
