Unranked Oklahoma defeated No 1 Texas 27-24 in the Red River Rivalry on a field goal with no time remaining.

Unranked Oklahoma defeated No 1 Texas 27-24 in the Red River Rivalry in Dallas on Saturday, pulling off their first upset of a top-ranked team since beating Missouri in 2007. Arch Manning threw three touchdowns for the Longhorns but was intercepted twice. The first came when Peyton Bowen returned an interception 42 yards for a touchdown with 10:07 remaining, giving Oklahoma a 24-17 lead after Manning was pressured while throwing to Cam Coleman.

Texas responded when Manning found Jermaine Bishop Jr. to tie the score with 6:32 remaining. The Longhorns then forced Oklahoma to punt and appeared to have the momentum. However, Texas had two late chances to win. Gianni Spetic missed a 53-yard field-goal attempt with 1:55 left, and Manning was intercepted by Courtland Guillory with 19 seconds remaining.

Oklahoma drove to their 39-yard line after the interception. John Mateer completed passes to Isaiah Sategna, both upheld on replay review, to position the team for the final play. Tate Sandell kicked a 47-yard field goal on the last play to seal the victory. The Sooners also scored on defence through Bowen's pick-six and special teams with Dakoda Fields recovering a blocked punt in the end zone.
