Three plays into the annual Red River Rivalry, Texas Longhorns quarterback Quinn Ewers threw an interception.
First-ranked and undefeated Texas was on its back foot against Oklahoma, the team the Longhorns were expected to beat handily.
Gunnar Helm #85 of the Texas Longhorns dives for a touchdown during the second quarter against the Oklahoma Sooners at Cotton Bowl Stadium in Dallas on Saturday.
Harder to discern is how much the Longhorns’ rout of Oklahoma revealed about the strength of Texas as a national-title contender.
Life in Texas’ previous conference, the Big 12, meant that beating Oklahoma was the toughest hurdle to reaching the conference title game.
