The Texas Longhorns claimed a crucial SEC victory over the Arkansas Razorbacks with a determined defensive effort and timely offensive plays. Quinn Ewers threw for 176 yards and two touchdowns, providing the crucial scores for the Longhorns. Ewers' key connection with Matthew Golden resulted in touchdowns, lending Texas a two-score cushion. As the Razorbacks attempted a comeback, Texas' defense stiffened and limited Arkansas to just a field goal, securing a 20-10 win. While Arkansas showed offensive potential, they struggled against the Longhorns, managing only 231 yards, well below their average. Arkansas' Taylen Green was intercepted once, with his pass resulting in a fumble recovered by Texas. The Longhorn defense notably tallied six sacks, and Jahdae Barron and Alfred Collins each had pivotal defensive plays. Texas maintained control of the game through consistent defensive pressure and strategic third-down conversions. With this win, Texas holds strong at 9-1 for the season, while Arkansas dropped to 5-5.
