No. 1 Texas will have starting quarterback Quinn Ewers back on the field when it meets No. 18 Oklahoma in the Red River Rivalry showdown on Saturday in Dallas.
Longhorns coach Steve Sarkisian announced Thursday that Ewers has recovered from an oblique injury and will lead Texas against its longtime rival in the first-ever meeting for the teams as members of the Southeastern Conference.
Ewers exited Texas’ victory against UTSA on Sept. 14 and was replaced by freshman Arch Manning, who then guided the Longhorns (5-0, 1-0 SEC) to wins over UL Monroe and Mississippi State.
This season, Ewers has completed 73.4 percent of his passes for 691 yards, eight touchdowns and two interceptions, while Manning has completed 70.5 percent of his passes for 901 yards with nine TDs and two interceptions.
Oklahoma (4-1, 1-1) defeated Texas 34-30 in last season’s clash.
