Quintrevion Wisner ran for 118 yards and a touchdown and the Longhorns defense held the Sooners to just 237 yards as Texas blew out Oklahoma in Dallas in the schools’ first Red River Rivalry game as members of the Southeastern Conference.

The win was just the Longhorns’ second in the past seven meetings with the Sooners. Texas (6-0, 2-0) took control right before the half, breaking open a tight game by scoring 14 points in the final 2:21.

Michael Hawkins Jr. was 19-of-30 for 148 yards and was sacked five times for Oklahoma (4-2, 1-2), which was handed its lowest-scoring output since its 49-0 loss to the Longhorns in 2022.

The Nittany Lions had to battle back from a two-touchdown halftime deficit. Tight end Tyler Warren was on the receiving end of 17 of Drew Allar’s 30 completions, hauling in a 32-yard touchdown catch just after the break to ignite Penn State’s rally. Warren’s 224 receiving yards are the second most by any Penn State player. Allar went 30-for-43 passing for 391 yards and two touchdowns but also three interceptions.

Miller Moss completed 20 of 34 passes for 220 yards and a pair of scores for the Trojans (3-3, 1-3).

Domani Jackson made the game-sealing interception as time expired for the Crimson Tide (5-1, 2-1 SEC), who rebounded from last week’s 40-35 upset loss at Vanderbilt.

The Rebels (5-2, 1-2 SEC) committed two penalties on the first possession of overtime before Caden Davis kicked a 57-yard field goal. That left the Tigers (5-1, 2-0) with an opportunity to take their first lead of the game.
