Texas Erases 20-Point Fourth-Quarter Deficit, Stuns No. 1 Ohio State

Hi and welcome to another edition of Right

on Rangers Live.

Coming at you in the fourth quarter, Texas

trying to make this ball game interesting.

You have got a really, really close game

on your hands if you score here.

Longhorns have made it look pretty ugly most

of this ball game, but they have an

opportunity here in the fourth quarter.

Handoff just stopped short of the one-yard

line.

Right now, 7.45 left on the clock

and you have a really big opportunity to

cut this to a one-score game.

Sark been making some ballsy calls here in

the fourth quarter.

Going for it, fourth down, own territory.

It has definitely been a good, a better

second half I should say for the Longhorns.

Still not great, but a better second half

for sure.

Here's the handoff.

Texas is going to make it a 23

-16 game, extra point.

Incoming here shortly.

If it's made, six-point ball game and

you have 8.26 left, plenty of time.

It's getting interesting in Austin.

It is sure getting interesting.

Let's see how this one plays off.

Defense, they have had a great second half.

You have seen them really shut down the

Ohio State offense for the most part.

They have what, three points here in the

second half, three points in the third quarter.

That is it.

Extra point is good.

It is 23-17.

Appreciate all y'all hanging out.

I did not think that this game would

be anywhere close in the fourth quarter.

I must admit to y'all, must admit

to you.

Was not anticipating a one-score game at

this point in time.

Appreciate all y'all hanging out here right

on Rangers.

We cover everything Texas sports, but we put

a big emphasis on the Longhorns during the

college football season.

We thank you for choosing Right on Rangers

for all of your Texas Longhorns content.

Drop a comment, drop a question.

By the way, I will be doing a

Rangers show a little bit later on.

It may be a live show.

It may just be a podcast show, but

we are going to dial it in and

focus on football for the remainder of this

game and into the post game.

Maybe mention the Rangers a little bit here

and there, but nevertheless, we'll get to as

much of what you guys have to say

as possible.

Appreciate all y'all hanging out.

A number of things, number of places we

could start here.

I think the first half, the first quarter

went about as bad as you thought it

could go.

I mean, there was very little to take

away positive.

You actually, I felt like maybe minus the

fourth down call, Sark really calling a pretty

decent game early on.

That fourth and short call was a bit

bewildering to me.

The University of Texas, man, like, come on,

why are we getting cute on fourth down?

But a lot of missed opportunities today, a

lot of poor execution.

This whole night, really up until this point,

it has shown how expensive mistakes against an

elite team, oil and water, man, you cannot

make as many mistakes as the Longhorns have

had and consistently expect to be in a

ball game against good teams like Ohio State.

You're defying that a little bit today and

credit to Texas for making a comeback.

You have a, what, two turnovers tonight?

Ohio State, they have done a pretty good

job taking care of the football, haven't they?

I mean, you have no interceptions, no fumbles.

Texas almost had a third with the Niblett

off the face mask on the punt.

Yeah, the Longhorns, three quarters without a touchdown.

They've come on strong here in the fourth,

scoring two, and it is a one-score

game.

Buckeyes have a tight six-point lead, seven

minutes and 15 seconds.

Game is still alive.

We're going to see if Texas can figure

out a way to pull off the miraculous,

man, going into the fourth quarter.

It was 23-3.

This would be a comeback for the ages.

Appreciate all you guys hanging out.

We've got a lot to say about this

one, but we'll check in with the comments.

Appreciate all you guys.

Hey, Darnell, it's all good, man.

I'll be on a little bit later to

talk Rangers.

It'll be pretty late night in all honesty,

so you might have to catch it on

the replay, but I will do a Ranger

show later on.

But during this one, during the college football

game of the week, man, had to make

sure we went live during.

Here's the kickoff, and it is going to

be, looks like, is it going to get

brought out here?

No, it is going to go over the

head, and we will see if Julian Sayin,

Jeremiah Smith, Bo Jackson and company can figure

out a way to put a drive together

to put this one to bed.

Clearly, we're hoping not so much.

Tex-Mex, I wish.

MetLife tomorrow would be phenomenal.

A little Sunday night football.

What a great time to be alive, man.

You got baseball, you got football firing up.

I freaking love it.

Smothers, look, Smothers to me, he's playing himself

into a starting role.

Raleek Brown, he's had actually a pretty decent

game running the football, if you're just looking

at the box score.

But man, he has had a rough one

otherwise.

And Jeremiah Smith, speaking of a rough one,

that is a rough down.

That is a very, very easy pitch and

catch.

Jeremiah Smith, a little behind him, little behind

him, but a player like Smith, yeah, you're

expecting him to be able to corral that

one.

Sayin, definitely not a sharp throw.

It'll be second and 10.

Fans really finally alive in this one.

It was quiet at different times.

It was a quiet atmosphere.

Sayin flushed out.

You like this?

He's going to go all the way across

the field wide open.

Tight end is wide open.

That is an unfortunate, unfortunate leak.

Sayin threw completely across his body, across the

field.

Longhorn secondary just cannot hang on enough.

Tight end gets Ohio State about a 30

-yard, 25-yard gain.

And the ball is just at about midfield

here.

Tex-Mex enjoy, man.

That is going to be a phenomenal experience

for you guys.

Happy for you guys.

I can only imagine, man, going into your

first game as a kid.

That is crazy awesome.

Julian Sayin going to step back here and

we are going to have an incomplete pass.

It was getting a little handsy.

Thought maybe, ah, now the flag comes in.

I wondered if they were going to throw

this on Texas.

Maybe they'll talk about it here for a

second, but it looks like we may get

a holding call, pass interference call.

And it looks like that is the play.

Things are coming undone a little bit here,

man.

You had Sayin flushed out.

He finds the wide open, man.

And now you've got Ohio State in plus

territory with an opportunity to put this game

to bed.

It is a six-point lead.

You figure they kick a field goal.

Not impossible, but it's going to make things

very tough on Texas to come back.

A little injury time here.

I do agree.

Comment from TikTok here.

Tex-Mex, sloppy, sloppy game with some unfortunate

bad luck.

I mean, the Coleman play, that's just bad

luck to me.

Coleman's got to secure that ball.

It's just bad luck in the sense that

the ball pops right up to the defender.

Raleek Brown, I know that the slot receiver

just didn't do a great job blocking on

that screen.

So I don't think that the Raleek Brown

fumble to begin the game is really all

his fault.

But I will say, you're stopping your feet

in the backfield like Raleek Brown did.

I understand he had someone kind of bearing

down on him.

But any time you're stopping your feet like

that in the backfield, it's not going to

go super great for you.

So I think Raleek Brown, he's done well

to make some good plays and recover a

little bit in this one.

But it's been a bit of a rough

one for him.

He had the third down play where he

ran out of instead of putting his shoulder

down.

That was right before halftime.

Not Raleek Brown's best moment.

Not his best moment.

First and 10 ball at about the 44

-yard line.

And we're going to get a first down

run here.

Ohio State starting to march.

Ball up to the 34 of Texas.

Field goal range would be a long field

goal, but field goal range.

Matt, what's good?

Yep.

Going to do my Rangers show a little

bit later on in the night.

It'll be a late night live, or I

may just do podcast format.

We'll see.

I'll probably hop on the live and maybe

see if there's any Rangers fans still hanging

out late on a Saturday night.

But we're going to bring it home with

the Longhorns game right now, take a little

break, and then I'm going to come back

and do my Rangers show.

I am glad the Rangers are winning a

ball game.

That is for sure.

Handoff up the middle again, and they're testing

out that defensive line.

This is when you win the game here.

You got some tired bodies up front.

Ohio State starting to impose their will.

Five minutes, 23 seconds left in this ball

game.

John, comment from TikTok.

Texas can't stop the run.

It has not been Texas' best day defensively

stopping the run.

They are 95 yards allowed.

It looks like they are probably going to

go over 100 here, barring some big-time

stops behind the line of scrimmage.

Here's another handoff.

Right on cue.

Right on cue.

Texas makes a big stop behind the line.

Love to see that.

Ohio State just trying to bleed clock here.

Longhorns have all three timeouts remaining.

Ohio State has two.

Not that Ohio State is going to be

trying to burn those.

Today, we also want to definitely make sure

we get into as many player breakdowns as

we can.

We're getting there.

A lot will be coming your way in

the postgame.

We're going to make sure we finish this

one out.

We're live watching.

Longhorns, Buckeyes, 429 left.

That looked some early movement.

They have been really generous to Ohio State.

They have been moving so early.

I've noticed probably three or four times Ohio

State, the left tackle moves real, real early.

They just are not calling it.

I know they're giving some benefit of the

doubt there.

That is generous a couple of different times.

Ohio State on to kick the field goal.

This would put the game not completely out

of reach, but if you're Texas, you're really

going to have to move the ball quickly

if you go down nine.

Can we get a wide left?

Yes, and it goes left, baby.

The Longhorns have a shot.

They have a chance.

Texas will take over.

They have amazing field position.

You need a touchdown.

You're down six.

Oh, wide left.

Thank you.

I love it when that happens every once

in a while.

You get a shank wide left.

Oh, that's beautiful.

It looks like it was a true kick,

not tipped, not blocked.

He just hooked it.

Oh, could they pull off the impossible here?

You're down 23-3 to the number one

team in the country.

They could pull off the impossible here.

I'm knocking on wood right now.

Arch in the backfield.

We get a run.

Nice, solid three-yard gain.

We'll take it.

We will take it.

Texas trying to kill a little clock here.

Manage that while obviously marching down the field

and taking the lead in this one.

That's the goal.

You don't want to leave Ohio State too

much time, especially with the nature of the

score.

You score a touchdown, the most you can

be up is two.

You're not going to go for two.

Most you're going to be up is one.

Arch rears back, fires.

He's got a receiver open over the middle.

Mosley, and the ball is near midfield.

Texas trying to overcome a 20-point deficit

going into the fourth quarter against the number

one team in the land.

Arch Manning getting close to 200 yards through

the air.

Quick pass here.

Mosley again.

Mosley skirts outside, puts his shoulder down.

I love that.

Love that from Mosley, baby.

Takes a hit, gets knocked out of bounds.

Good five, six-yard chunk gain there.

Bando, what's good?

Thanks for hanging out, man.

Let's see if we could have some more

great calls here by Sark on this offensive

drive, man.

Midfield, second and six, clock under three minutes.

Hand off again.

He misses a tackle, and we have Raleek

Brown shaking and baking for a first down,

and it is in Ohio State territory.

The fans have come to life, man.

You love to see it.

This stadium was so dead early on in

this game.

It was just a completely dead stadium, and

now it is rocking in Austin.

39-yard line of Ohio State.

Arch, little play action.

He gets rid of it.

Raleek Brown drops it, maybe for the best.

He was covered well.

That's one of those where Raleek should have

probably had that one, but it might be

better off dropping that pass.

You do not want at all to get

a two-yard, three-yard loss there.

You're probably okay with the second and ten.

Maybe Raleek slips a tackle and makes it

interesting there, but I'm okay with the drop.

The way it worked out, you'd rather have

clock stopped 2-19.

Otherwise, you're taking it just to about the

two-minute warning.

Arch and the shotgun empty set.

He has all day long.

What a great job by the O-line.

Arch can't find anybody.

He does find the tight end.

Almost a first down.

It's going to be third and one, going

up to the two-minute warning.

What a job by the O-line, man.

That is so impressive.

This O-line has shown out a little

bit today.

You feel like Arch has had so much

time back there.

He's been on the run a number of

different spots in this game, but by and

large, I feel like the O-line has

given him a lot of time to sit

back there and throw.

Two-minute warning.

Actually, what do we got here?

Injury timeout.

It's 2-05 left.

They say he stepped out of bounds.

What are we doing here?

Okay, there we go.

Two-minute warning now.

Longhorns have a third and one coming up.

Obviously, you're in four-down territory.

BeerBelly, what's good?

Staying off the game.

The comeback started when I turned it off.

You better lose the remote.

Throw it out the window right now, BeerBelly.

Throw it out.

Whatever you've been doing since the comeback started,

don't you dare mix it up.

Don't you dare mix it up.

Welcome, everybody, Longhorns.

If you're just joining us, they trailed 23

-3 coming into the fourth quarter.

Texas on the doorstep of completing the comeback.

Easier said than done on this Ohio State

defense.

All you need is one stand if you're

the Buckeyes, but Arch Manning, Sark, Raleek Brown

and company trying to make it interesting.

Speaking of interesting, Emmett Mosley, your leading wide

receiver for yards and receptions.

Not something I had on my bingo card.

Emmett Mosley leading the wide receiver core.

12 yards, a catch, long of 17.

They have been hitting Mosley on some of

the quick routes, and he has done well

with his legs after the catch.

Mosley, like the big transfer play last year,

right?

I mean, he was the guy that you

really thought was going to ball out, show

out.

The roll just never completely took over.

He definitely had some nice games here and

there, some nice catches last year, but you

really thought he would be taking a bit

of a backseat with Wingo and Coleman doing

their thing, but with the game being what

it is, you have had some underneath routes

open for Mosley, and he has taken full

advantage.

Right now, we are at the two-minute

warning.

Arch Manning on the day does have an

interception, 22 for 36, 177 yards.

Arch has been a little up and down

today.

He has been a little up and down

today, I will say.

It feels like in the beginning, he wasn't

getting the help.

You had the Coleman drop.

Yes, Arch overthrew it a little bit for

an NFL prospect like Coleman.

I feel like you got to catch that

football.

Could Arch have laid it out better, more

cleanly?

100%.

I don't think there's any denying that.

Should Coleman, an NFL prospect, a top NFL

prospect, catch that football?

Yes, absolutely.

But Arch has missed some wide open throws

today on pivotal downs as well.

I mean, you've had him a couple over

the middle that he has just overthrown.

It has not been perfect tonight for Arch.

It doesn't have to be, and it's not

really going to matter if you end up

completing the comeback here.

It is not really going to matter.

Let's go.

Come on.

What else we got?

We need the comment from YouTube.

We need Sark to not call a screen.

Sark and the screens, man.

I mean, look, they do go hand-in

-hand.

They absolutely go hand-in-hand.

Sark and the screens.

Let's go.

Whatever works.

I mean, Sark, I'll knock on wood for

him, but Sark is hot right now.

I mean, I know he was getting a

crap ton of hate during the game.

I mean, look, not necessarily from me.

Not from me.

I actually think Sark has been all right

in this game.

The execution has not been great by the

players.

I would definitely put this, if this comeback

does not come to fruition, I put it

on the players more than I put it

on Sark.

I mean, you've got guys fumbling the football.

You've got Arch missing throws.

You've got Coleman dropping passes.

You've got the defense working with the short

field.

I would 1,000% put it on

the players over I put it on Sark.

I just don't understand how you could make

Sark majority blame.

I mean, there have been guys that have

just not been executing out there tonight.

Sark hasn't been perfect tonight.

The fourth down call early on in the,

what, the game, the second half right before

it on the fourth down hated the call.

He hasn't been perfect tonight, but there has

been a ton of poor execution, a ton

of poor execution.

Why am I not at the game though?

Look, I would love to be at this

game.

I would absolutely love to be at this

game.

Don't get me wrong.

You know, we unfortunately are not quite full

time with Right on Rangers yet.

There will come a day.

I believe it.

We're not quite full time with right on

Rangers.

I do have a couple other things pulling

me in multiple directions.

I'd love to be at this game.

It was not an easy game to get

a ticket for cheap though, man.

I was looking at some of the prices

just for fun this morning and it was

not cheap to get into this game.

It was look, unless you, I guess, don't

care about where you sit, but I'm kind

of a fan of with football, unless you

are sitting in a really nice seat or

it's a really big game like this one.

Sometimes the experience can be better at home.

That being said, I'd love to be there

tonight.

This is a game where you're like, you're

good getting in.

Just get me in that game.

Get me in the environment.

Minute and a half left, second and seven.

Arch Manning at the 20 yard line.

Look, Ohio State, one timeout left.

That's important.

Hand off here.

And you've got a wide open receiver over

the middle.

Mosley again.

Mosley almost takes it to the house.

Oh, Mosley, the balls on the one and

a half yard line.

Emmett Mosley shining through in the biggest of

moments.

All the attention on Coleman, all the attention

on Wingo.

And we have got a prime opportunity here

to take the lead against Ohio State.

Tick, tick, tick goes the clock.

We are almost under a minute.

Longhorns on the doorstep.

I formation.

Here's the snap up the middle and it

is stopped.

I might actually work out for Texas.

That might actually work out.

They do gain yardage.

Now you've got to think Ryan day calls

the timeout.

You have to think day calls it.

And he does.

It looks like the clock, the clock has

stopped 51 seconds.

Maybe some confusion here.

That actually might work out for Texas that

you didn't score there.

That may work out.

You make Ohio State use the timeout.

I don't know what is going on with

the clock right now.

It makes no sense.

They've got to fix this.

Sark has got to be going crazy.

Clock is not running.

Don't really know what, what they are going

to do with this clock.

They got to sort something out here.

There should be way less time or you

got the timeout called right away.

Perhaps they'll sort this out.

Beer belly, I 100% will thank you

if we win this game.

All right.

Timeout here.

23 to 17.

Longhorns at about the half yard line of

Ohio State.

They have three downs to punch it in

from a half yard out.

Ohio State, if they get the ball back,

you would think roughly would have about 45,

46 seconds.

Mosley they're showing his play again.

Beautiful throw by arch, beautiful route by Mosley

and then an outstanding effort, man.

He was carrying defenders to the goal line.

This is an all timer.

If Texas could pull it off, I'm knocking

on wood.

Trust me.

This would be an all time game.

Manning clutch gene activated.

Oh, oh, look there.

I'm sure there was a lot of Manning

slander thrown out there tonight.

Clutch gene perhaps activated.

Let's wait.

Let's wait.

Shimmy.

I appreciate the comment there.

Another eye formation.

Arch gets the tight end in motion.

Here's the handoff up the middle and it's

close.

He might not have gotten it.

He may not have gotten it.

This is, this actually may work out again.

Ryan Day, I'm sure wants them to score.

I don't think if you're Ryan Day, I

don't know.

I guess you're putting faith in your defense,

but man, you're at a point right now

where you are now draining clock.

Having these Longhorns get stopped short.

Look, I shouldn't assume anything.

Ohio State, the defense is stout, very capable

of making a stand here.

Let's not take anything for granted.

It looked like he got it.

I mean, it looked like barely got it.

I'm a little surprised they're not reviewing this.

A little surprised that they're not actually reviewing

this right now.

Here we go.

The tip of the ball is about three

inches from the goal line.

And now we're going to get another timeout.

I think they may be reviewing it now.

Let's see.

That's going to be so hard to tell.

He got, it looked like he might've gotten

over.

Smothers, I think got over with that last

little push at the end.

It really did look like that last little

push.

He got it.

Let's see what the overhead shot can tell

us.

He definitely was stopped short, but then a

second effort, it looked like he was able

to push through.

Either way, it works out.

You're either scoring a touchdown to go ahead

or you are wasting some clock and you've

got two more downs to punch it in.

They may rule inconclusive here.

They really may.

Ah, yes.

Nate, what's good, man?

We will be doing our Rangers show a

little bit later on in the evening.

I'm going to finish up with Longhorns here,

take a break, and I'm going to hop

back on some late night Rangers baseball talk.

So if you're here for Rangers, we are

finishing out the Longhorns Ohio State game right

now.

We will definitely talk Rangers later on in

the evening.

Glad the Rangers got the win though.

Any day the Rangers win is a good

day, for real.

A fake handoff and Arch strolls in for

the lead.

They're saying he might've fumbled, huh?

How do you rule?

I don't understand how you rule fumble.

No clue how you get a fumble out

of that, man.

I didn't see anything.

Short of the goal line, it's okay.

I believe that that is going to work

out in Texas' favor.

You kill a little bit more clock and

now if you're Ohio State, you are riding

solely on the defense.

You have no control over the clock.

If you're Sark, I mean, you got three

timeouts.

Maybe at this point, see what you got.

See if you got the right look, but

if you're Sark, you got three timeouts.

Don't be shy.

Here it is.

He's the handoff and he's over.

He's in.

And the Longhorns take the lead with 25

seconds remaining.

The extra point, excuse me, on the way

will determine the lead.

It is tied.

Texas comes back from 23 to three down.

And they have an opportunity to complete the

comeback on this extra point.

Hook'em Horns, Sark, much, much maligned.

He had a lot of people breathing down

his neck, a lot of hate coming Sark's

way during the game today.

And he may just be responsible for one

of the best comebacks of all time in

Longhorns history.

Snap is on the way.

Kick is up.

It is good.

Texas has the lead.

It is 24-23.

There are 25 seconds remaining.

Still a decent amount of time.

You don't take anything for granted here.

Jeremiah Smith, an outstanding weapon.

Texas defense still has a job to do.

Would have loved to run more clock.

Mark, I'm with you on that.

I would have loved a little more clock

to run off.

Nevertheless, I think you'll take this.

You will take this.

You have a shot here.

Texas does the unthinkable in Austin against the

number one team in the country.

Hollywood Smothers goes soaring into the end zone.

His second touchdown of the day.

Oh my goodness, what a sequence.

Longhorns prepared to kick off here.

We'll see what the strategy is.

I would imagine they're going to do everything

they can to try and either bank this

one out of the back of the end

zone or drain some clock.

They go with the deep kick.

Ohio State will start.

I like the strategy there.

Make them go more yardage.

I know killing clock is definitely in play

there with a squib kick.

I don't mind the opportunity to just bang

it out of the back of the end

zone and make Ohio State start a little

bit further back.

Fans are on their feet.

It is rocking in Austin right now.

Texmax asked, are we number one if this

lead holds?

Oh, I don't even want to talk about

that yet, Texmax.

I don't.

But I'd imagine they are going to be

surely in the conversation.

Staying in the shotgun.

He's flushed.

He fires deep.

And there's a flag on the play.

There was a pretty big impact there going

up for the football.

Let's see what the flag is.

Incomplete pass is the ruling on the field.

Penalty on the offense holding.

And that is going to push back Ohio

State even further.

Ohio State commits a holding penalty and they

will go back 15 yards.

Is there a runoff as well?

Did they do the 10 second runoff also?

I thought you had 10 second runoff withholding

penalty.

Maybe I'm blurring NFL here because of the

incomplete pass.

Okay.

Because of the incomplete pass.

I believe if you have the clock running,

maybe that is the rule there.

I'm going to have to check my rule

book.

I'll check my rule book.

Either way, you're going to have first and

20, 17 ticks left.

Ball right now is at the Ohio State

15 yard line.

Sayin 16 for 32, 73.

They're showing it on the screen.

He has had some big chunk plays, especially

throwing to Jeremiah Smith.

Arch Manning, 23 for 37.

He has had some big throws today as

well.

Touchdown and an interception.

Oh, come on defense.

Tackle.

You just got to tackle in bounds.

I know that the clock stops on a

first down, but either way, empty backfield for

Sayin and the Buckeyes.

Good pressure.

Looks like they are going to make the

tackle and open field.

It's not even a first down.

That's going to be the ball game.

I don't know if they're going to get

a snap off in time.

Sayin is trying.

There's three seconds.

There's two.

They do get a snap off.

Final play of the game right here.

Sayin launches it.

It's deep and it's jumbled around with the

Longhorns.

They intercepted.

Game over.

Hook 'em Horns.

Texas does the unthinkable.

They knock off the number one Buckeyes.

23 to three.

Comeback complete.

Oh, it is mayhem on the field.

The Longhorns are going crazy.

Rightfully so.

The largest comeback wins since 2007 and against

the number one opponent.

I don't know if it gets any sweeter

than this.

The Buckeyes go down epic melt for Ryan

day in Ohio state.

They had the game in their grasp.

How on earth did this happen?

I am at a loss for words right

now.

Oh my goodness.

You have both big 10 teams going down

today.

First Oregon and now Ohio state arch Manning

getting ready for one of the best interviews

of his life.

Oh, Sark Sark is hype.

And he did.

I think he just pissed off an ESPN

reporter.

Once again, did y'all see that?

I roll from Holly.

Oh my goodness.

What a comeback we're here.

Here's arch Manning.

Can't even believe what I'm watching right now.

This never happens to us.

This never happens to us.

Oh my goodness.

I'm stunned.

Arch 196 through the air signature moment for

arch Manning with this comeback signature moment.

Hey, look, a lot is going to go

onto the offense and the Sark, the play

calling.

Can we show some love to the freaking

defense?

This defense had short fields all night long

and you had three points allowed in the

second half, three points allowed in the second

half.

Wow.

How do you like, how do you like

Will Muschamp?

Now, baby, we had a lot of people

questioning things in the first half.

How do you like Coach Muschamp now?

Three points allowed in the second half.

Hey, what do you know?

The defense plays better when they're not working

with a short field, every single possession, Texas

24, Ohio state 23, the Longhorns improved to

two and Oh, and look, now we can

talk about it.

Number one team in the country.

Perhaps we are working our way there as

we speak.

What just happened to Alyssa?

I totally agree.

What, what did we just watch?

Like I said, this never happens to us

in the big games.

I feel like we are always choking.

The first three quarters were very appropriate.

It's like, this is what always happens to

us for one quarter though.

We defy fate and the Longhorns knock off

the number one team in the country.

And just, just think about how much this

team left on the table.

This team left so much on the table.

You had receivers dropping big catches.

You had stupid fumbles on the first play

of the game.

Think about how much this team left on

the table.

It's insane.

Oh, I'm believing right now.

Y'all I'm, I'm trying to fight it,

but I'm believing I knew this team was

going to be good.

I didn't know if they were going to

pull this one off in Austin tonight.

I didn't, I'm not going to lie to

you.

I didn't think it was going to be

a blowout.

I didn't think that Texas was going to

go down 23 to three.

I thought it would be a tight game

throughout it.

What really wasn't the horse just hit the

gas in the fourth quarter, 21 points.

It was 23 to three.

I can't even believe it.

Sark man denying ESPN.

Wonder what really is going on.

He, I know that he refused the, the

halftime interview because they were taking too long

and they kind of tried to like blow

it over.

Start kind of blows them off at the

end of the game.

I wonder what's going on there, man.

A small subplot in the grand context of

this game.

Andy Hookham Hornets, baby.

Thanks for hanging out.

Shane.

I have to agree.

Comment from Tik TOK.

That is one of the greatest games since

Vince young was quarterback.

I have to agree.

It is hard for me to think about

a greater game.

Like, you know, my mind goes to the

Arizona state game with Quinn Ewers and golden

connecting on that final play in overtime.

But you know what, that game, it was

tough because you were supposed to win that

game and you allowed Arizona state back into

the ball game.

This game, you're playing the number one team

in the country.

You're down the entire game.

You're the comeback kids.

This was, I think on a different level

than even that game for sure.

Well, Hook 'em Horns, Hook 'em Horns.

Indeed.

College game day, the whole nation watching.

And this is what we get to see.

This is what the longhorns treat us to.

And how do you go and move on

to next week's ball game, man?

How do you, how do you take it

down a few notches for UTSA, man?

I look, you're not overlooking anybody, right?

You're not overlooking anyone, but you win this

big game and now you got to go

play UTSA next week.

They'll be ready.

They'll be ready.

But man, Austin is going to be rocking

tonight.

I wish I was there right now.

Austin is going to be lit tonight.

Get only imagine who just, just soaking it

in right now.

Y'all just like you are.

I'm sure a bunch of y'all have

the TV on still.

This is great to just all take in.

You're not going to get a lot of

games.

You're not going to see a lot of

wins like this in your lifetime.

Sark freaking hyped after the game is over.

Matthew McConaughey got to get him in there.

I love it.

I love it.

Drop a comment, drop a question.

Let me know what you thought about this

one.

Mick J.

Thank you, Mick J.

Mick J.

Thank you.

Let's go.

We, I think it's going to be tough

not to put Texas at number one.

You know, they might not do it.

The committee I think will, will determine that,

you know, these rankings that come out at

the beginning, you just never know, but what

a massive win.

Comments from YouTube here.

I'm totally with you, Mick J.

Oh, Texas, definitely number two.

If you're not number one, you got to

be number two.

These rankings are so subjective right now.

I mean, who, who cares?

Right.

I mean, if they're number, if they're not

number one, like let's not engineer some fake

outrage.

I think they should be.

You beat the number one team.

You were number four coming into the game.

I think you probably should be the number

one team.

Nobody else has played anybody, but I'm with,

I'm with Jeffrey here.

Jeffrey appreciate the comment.

The ranking doesn't matter right now, man.

You just want a huge football game.

You want a massive football game tonight.

And I just don't think you can at

all demean this, even though we're going to

look back, who knows what Ohio state is

going to do.

I think at this point, if you're a

Longhorns fan, you're probably hoping Ohio state wins

out from here.

I mean, you want this win to look

as good as possible, but let's, let's not

make any mistake about it.

Even if Ohio state goes on to lose

a couple more, it's a big win.

You got a lot of other teams playing

cupcakes right now.

You got a lot of other teams that

are not challenging themselves.

Like the Longhorns did signing up for this

series with the Buckeyes this home and away

this, I mean, look for all the outrage

last year, the Longhorns getting left out of

the playoff, you know, should we not have

scheduled?

Should we cancel Ohio state?

This is definitely the other side of the

coin.

Isn't it?

You win this game.

Now anything can happen any given Saturday, right?

But you win this game.

Now you solidify, you drop one game, you

drop two games.

There there's no way that you're getting left

out.

If you're the Longhorns haven't played and haven't

knocked off Ohio state, the number one team

in the country, Benjamin, you are welcome, sir.

Comment from Tik TOK congrats on the wind.

And thank you as a Michigan fan.

And thank you.

Thank you as a Texas fan.

Anybody else watch that Oklahoma loss earlier today?

It's a great day to be a Longhorns

fan, baby.

It's a great day to be a Longhorns

fan.

You got Michigan knocking off Oklahoma and Texas

returns the favor.

I love that.

I saw an epic meme earlier.

I think it was yesterday.

It was Dwight and Jim from the office

and Dwight.

It's the episode where he's like, do you

want to form?

Do you want to form an alliance?

And it was Michigan Dwight and Jim was

Texas.

I think it was, it was great.

And that's what totally happened today.

You had Michigan knocking off Oklahoma earlier on

this morning or early this afternoon, Texas pays

it forward and beats Ohio state.

A lot of happy Wolverine fans today.

Absolutely.

Andrew G I'm with you.

Some people, you know, call it luck, whatever,

man.

Yeah.

One of my coaches always told me luck

is labor using correct knowledge.

And it feels like that is what happened

tonight.

Texas labored in this one, especially in the

fourth quarter.

You had some correct knowledge being demonstrated by

Sark dialing up some beautiful play calls.

I don't know if I would call this

lucky.

I might call it a meltdown by Ohio

state.

You, you go up 23 to three heading

into the fourth quarter.

Not a lot of excuses for losing a

football game like that.

Look, some comparisons being made right now, 2005.

You remember Vince young went to the shoe,

did some work.

I don't want to go there quite yet.

I'm trying to stay in the here and

now, but it feels eerily similar to Oh

five.

You had Vince doing his thing, kicking off

that season.

Oh, I look, I'm all for dreaming big.

You know, this, my goodness, Tristan, what's good

comment from YouTube.

What a great comeback and a Hook 'em.

Yes, sir.

A comment.

Another from YouTube from Vince.

This does do, this doesn't feel real.

I'm with you.

I like, as I'm talking right now, I

am still in shock.

Seriously.

Y'all I'm in shock.

I don't know how this happened.

I mean, I watched the game just like

you did.

Things just kept falling our way.

We looked at defense.

I already gave them a ton of credit,

three points allowed only in the second half

credit to Coach Muschamp.

They made some great halftime adjustments, some incredible

halftime adjustments.

Got to give the defense credit.

I know arch is going to get a

hell of a lot of it, but you've

got to give the defense credit.

I mean, without this performance in the second

half, shutting down the Ohio state offense to

three points and none in the fourth quarter.

Hey, K hips.

Appreciate you, man.

Respect for sure.

Thanks for coming to hang out.

Appreciate the comment, brother.

Dennis Longhorns for life.

Indeed.

Stunned in Austin are the Ohio state, but

guys, you had a pretty good game all

the way around up until that fourth quarter

for Ohio state.

And then it just unraveled from there.

Texas figured it out offensively.

The defense locked down the Ohio state offense.

You had a missed field goal.

Very fortuitous.

That's a big time.

Miss 40 something yard or makeable field goal.

We asked for wide left.

Sure enough.

It was hooked wide left.

It looked that that's not the only reason

Ohio state loss, but that field goal is

made.

Texas isn't winning this ball game.

I mean, look, maybe something else incredible happens,

but I'm not sure Texas is winning this

ball game.

If that field goal gets made.

Yeah.

Jeremiah Smith in the first half was going

off.

He had 164 yards.

Texas has really shut him down.

The first couple of match-ups they played

tonight.

He went off in the first half.

They figured out a way in the second

half, but he was dropping a couple.

He had a couple of drops.

A couple, at least that went off the

hands.

It was not a great performance from him

in the offense in that fourth quarter.

In the second half, first half felt like

everything was going right for the Buckeyes.

It really did.

Everything felt like it was going Ohio state's

way.

That's why you got to play all four

quarters.

Am I right?

That is why you have to play all

four.

Who's the player of the game, man?

I mean, like we got to go offense

and defense here.

Who's the player of the game?

Man.

Mosley made some huge catches.

I know arch the quarterback.

Like we're always going to gravitate towards him.

Smothers.

He had almost, let's see Smothers had over

a hundred yards from scrimmage.

It's a tough one for player of the

game.

It really is offensively.

I think you could go Smothers two touchdowns

arch definitely connected with some big throws there

at the end.

Great stuff.

We keep rolling.

That's the greatest ugly game ever as a

comment from tick tock.

I mean, look, I don't know if I

would agree.

Totally.

I've seen worse, man.

How do you say this is the, uh,

the greatest ugly game ever?

I feel like I've seen some worse ones

than this.

I mean, look, was it sharp?

No, I'll agree with you on that.

I feel like I've seen some worse ones.

That's for sure.

For sure.

Just wait.

Charles says, just wait for that beating against

a and M man.

I heard that all last year.

And then we all know what happened.

I heard that last year and we all

know what happened in the lone star showdown.

Uh, look, it being in college station may

help the cause a little bit.

But man, we'll, we'll talk more about that

later.

The Aggies were, we're busy playing Arizona state

today.

Oh my goodness.

Appreciate the followers, by the way.

Thank you so much.

Yeah.

I love that.

The Aggie fans are already fired up.

We just beat Ohio state and, uh, you

got some Aggies fans really thinking they're about

to lay it down.

All right.

You do you buddy.

You do you.

Oh, you lose his beans.

I said it earlier.

Oh, you loses Texas wins.

It's always a good day when that happens.

It's always a good day.

See Kel.

I think that that is a very likely

scenario, Georgia and Texas for the sec championship.

I think that is a very likely scenario.

Look for three quarters, everything we worried about

coming into this game was showing up, right?

Coming into this game, we said, Texas can't

turn the ball over.

They can't give up explosive plays.

And so naturally you had Jeremiah Smith killing

the secondary and Ohio state looking incredibly clean

for about three quarters.

Then Texas scored 21 unanswered in the fourth

arch and Wingo got them into the end

zone.

Hollywood Smothers scored a couple of times and

the defense finished it off with the interception

and only allowed three points in the second

half.

I appreciate the Rose.

Thank you so much.

Vegas called.

I wonder what the, what the money was

like on this game.

I don't know if, if the public was

a fade in Ohio state, or if you

had a lot of money on Texas, honestly,

I probably should have looked into it before

the game.

But man, I feel like you probably had

some people rolling with Ohio state today.

I would be surprised to learn that the

public was on Texas.

Maybe I'll do some research into it, but

that would surprise me.

Okay.

I think you played a pretty bad game

for three quarters and you still ended up

beating the number one team in the country.

You want to go a little glass half

full with me for a second.

You want to go a little wide frame

with me for a moment.

That's scary.

You played this bad for three quarters and

you still ended up knocking off the number

one team in the country.

I'll be it.

Yes.

You're at home.

And yes, that matters.

Don't know if this happens.

If you're on the road playing at Ohio

state, but you weren't, you're in Austin.

You had the home crowd behind you.

It is what it is.

It's scary.

When you think about the fact that Texas

really did not even play a complete game

tonight and they still found a way to

win.

Woo.

Fourth quarter changed the entire story.

It really looked like Ohio state was imposing

their will.

And then the field goal was missed.

And then it felt like that was just

the backbreaker.

It felt like that really just took the

wind out of the sails of the Buckeyes.

And you just did not have Texas look

back from that moment.

That was the life they needed.

Look, Sayin to me, appreciate the comment here,

man.

Thanks for hanging out.

Look, a good game.

It was a great game.

I know it's not the results you wanted.

Julian Sayin, I can't say really impresses me

a ton.

I I'm definitely not overly impressed, but I

want to just be real.

I mean, arch today left a lot on

the table.

Like I don't know, you know, beyond the

fact that he completes the comeback.

I don't know if you walk away today,

wowed by arch Manning.

I think you walk away feeling like this

was a huge moment for him, but you

also feel like he's still got a ton

to work on and improve upon.

And in that, I think is not me

trying to say arch is bad right now,

but it just feels like he hasn't even

reached the ceiling and with Sayin, I haven't

watched him enough to really make a super

refined comment, but I will say just watching

him tonight and watching him last year, last

year might've been a little unfair because that

was one of his first games, but I

don't know how impressed I am.

The, the Sark fourth down conversions, Kachow with

the YouTube comment here.

Don't know how he made those two fourth

down conversions.

Sark with those calls on fourth down, ballsy.

I mean, gutsy calls, man.

You, you had Herbie and you had the

broadcast booth.

Like what is this dude doing?

You heard it too.

There was a lot of doubt coming out

of the booth on those fourth down calls

that Sark decides we're going for it.

And when you really look back at it,

those decisions by Sark to go for it

on fourth down, even when the analytics said

not to reason why we won the game.

If Sark doesn't go for those crazy fourth

downs and look, I didn't think one of

them was all that crazy.

I thought the one in our own territory

was a little bit suspect.

It worked out.

Arch Manning made a great throw and we

were able to pick it up.

But the other one I was actually okay

with, but I have to say the one

where we were like at our own 35

or 30, it's like, okay, this is ballgame

Sark going for it on those fourth downs.

A huge reason why along with the defense,

along with the offense, Mosley got hot there.

And that last drive Arch Manning got hot.

He was connecting left and right Hollywood smothers.

The workhorse today, he had nearly 25 total

touches both through the air and on the

ground.

McJay just found this out.

YouTube Texas has the most ranked wins in

the country since joining the SEC.

Big, if true, I'm not saying that what

you're reporting is not accurate, McJay, but obviously

without having verified for myself, if that is

true, wow, that is impressive.

Wingo definitely did not help out Arch Manning

today.

I know that they connected later on, but

yeah, Wingo drops the touchdown earlier on.

Arch definitely was not helped out by the

supporting cast.

He definitely missed some throws himself, right?

He was not super sharp there in the

first three quarters, especially, but you can safely

say he could have got a lot more

help from some of the offensive players.

Cam Coleman dropped the big one.

That's for sure.

Smothers did look great.

Look, Raleek Brown had some hard runs too.

I know Raleek is probably gonna draw some

ire from Longhorns fans today, but Raleek Brown

had some hard runs.

If you take away the fumble, you take

away like the weird going out of bounds

on third downplay.

Raleek had a pretty good game.

I mean, look, 10 carries, 54 yards, averaging

five yards a carry.

I mean, that's better than what Smothers was

doing.

Granted, Smothers, you score the game winning touchdown

there.

You're naturally going to get propped up a

little bit higher than the guy that doesn't

have any, but Raleek, I thought in between

some of the mistakes had some really good

runs tonight.

I think they continue on with the two

headed monster.

You know, everything is less of a big

deal in terms of mistakes when you go

and win the football game.

And this is a beautiful game for Sark

because you won, but you have a lot

that you can nitpick and practice the next

week, right?

I mean, it's so ideal.

You have so much that you can use

in the tape of this game to help

defensively, to help offensively, special teams.

There's a lot to improve upon, but you

won.

It just makes everything so much better.

Yeah.

Posted by ESPN.

Love that.

Most wins against ranked opponents, Texas Longhorns since

joining the SEC.

Wow.

Impressive.

And look, you got to give Sark some

credit for that, man.

I know that there were a lot of

people ready to hang up Sark and crucify

him, but you really had Sark doing some

big things both last year and even the

year before when they went on their run

with Quinn Ewers.

I know last year you didn't make the

playoffs, but you had some big moments last

year too.

You got to give Sark some credit.

I am a big believer.

The grass is not always greener and the

grass is pretty green with Sark right now.

I know we're talking about in the aftermath

of a huge win, one of the biggest

wins, I think in school history, when you

really contextualize it, this has got to be

up there.

One of the biggest wins in school history.

I mean, I would be very interested to

hear from the longtime Longhorns fans and even

the longtime media members and where this win

ranks, but number one, you're at home under

the lights, game day, you're down 20 points

going into the fourth quarter and you win.

I don't know how many wins top this

one in terms of the regular season.

I really don't.

Josh, absolutely.

Great day for Texas sports.

Rangers win, horns win.

Oh, you loses.

And didn't, did the Astros lose too?

I know I'm about to piss off some

of y'all that are hanging out.

Maybe I know we got some Astros fans

that are Longhorns fans.

I won't rub it in too much, but

man, it's a good day overall, isn't it?

It's a great day.

Guillermo, my guy, great comeback, win comment from

Tik TOK Guillermo.

Appreciate you, man.

Great to see you.

Great to see you.

Hey socks.

What's good?

Hook them horns.

Just fun.

Hanging out.

It's just fun.

Hanging out, man.

Yeah.

The look, Mick J.

Thank you for bringing that up.

Saban, Alabama in Tuscaloosa, Quinn Ewers, Xavier Worthy,

50 yard bomb.

That one's pretty special.

Winning by 10 in Tuscaloosa.

That's up there.

Look, I don't know what we would think

about this.

This is a great debate question.

What's better tonight or Sark winning in Tuscaloosa?

Drop it in the comments.

What do you think about this?

Mick J.

Appreciate this.

This is a great discussion.

What's a bigger win tonight or Sark, Quinn

and Worthy winning by double digits in Tuscaloosa

against Saban?

Caleb says this one's better.

I think number one in the country at

home down 20.

Mick J., I know I'm probably being a

little bit prisoner of the moment, but this

one feels a little bigger to me.

I enjoyed that win in Tuscaloosa so much.

I'm not even lying, man.

That was one of the biggest wins I

felt like too.

It feels like this one's a little bigger.

It really does.

The Tuscaloosa, Saban, you had Sark coming back

to Alabama where he obviously spent some time

coaching, won a national championship there.

This one feels a little bigger to me.

Zach, what's good?

As a Buckeye fan, comment says from TikTok,

you guys deserve the win.

We blew it.

I appreciate that, man.

Thank you for hanging out.

Respect to you.

It was a good game.

I think Ohio State is going to look

back on this one and really bang their

head against the wall.

There's a lot that transpired over the last

15 minutes of play.

The missed field goal is huge.

I mean, look, that one's got to be

made if you're an Ohio State fan.

I know Ryan Day is going to get

a lot of crap for this one, but

that missed field goal is everything.

You're on the road in a tough, hostile

environment.

Now, do I think DKR is the toughest

place to play in college football?

No.

It is, I think, in the top, I

would say 15 or 20.

Maybe I'm underselling it a little bit.

I've been to a number of games there,

and I definitely think it's a great environment,

so Horns fans, don't take this as disrespect.

I do think there are a few places

in college football that are a little bit

more challenging to play in, but by no

means putting us outside the top 15, top

20 at the worst.

It gets loud there, man.

It's a big stadium.

There's a lot of people.

It gets loud there.

DKR starts rocking when that crowd gets on

their feet, and you saw it in the

fourth quarter tonight.

You really did.

Yeah, look, great comment here.

Dude, you haven't stopped smiling yet, so I

would guess this is the biggest win for

you.

Yeah.

I mean, look, I'm a little bit prisoner

of the moment right now, I think, but

I cannot believe what I just saw.

I'm still shocked and stunned that that comeback

was completed.

I really am.

I do have to admit, after losing to

Ohio State, I'm with this comment.

I think I'm reading this comment correctly here.

After losing to Ohio State back-to-back

times, finally, we break through against Ohio State.

It was embarrassing in the game when we

played and Quinn gets stripped.

His old roommate takes it all the way

to the house.

You had the loss that ultimately was a

big reason the Longhorns didn't make the playoffs

last year.

You had the 14-7 loss at Ohio

State last year.

What a game, baby.

What a game.

Yeah, look, I think, as I think through

some of the keys in this game, some

of the major takeaways, Arch, man, he deserves

some big-time credit.

Yes, I think we can do a little

bit of nitpicking.

The stat line is not a masterpiece from

Arch, but the part that matters, when Texas

absolutely had to move the football late, the

offense finally started doing it.

So for all the things that we can

pick apart about Arch Manning and the performance

tonight, when you needed the offense to actually

move the ball, it happened.

And I think that's what you have to

focus on.

You had the wing go drop.

He probably should have had another touchdown in

there, right?

But Arch did not get rattled.

The fourth quarter, he locked in, and when

this team needed clutch, he gave them clutch.

Biggest takeaway from Arch today.

Had 22 yards running the football as well.

Wasn't afraid to take it up the field

when he had to.

Felt like, for the most part, he made

smart decisions, got out of bounds.

Did take a couple of hits here and

there, but by and large, I thought, put

himself in good positions.

This is a great building moment for him.

You really care a lot less about the

stats, and you care more about the substance

of this win, which is you were down

20, and you had your quarterback stay resilient,

stay locked in, focused, and lead a huge

comeback.

A 20-point fourth-quarter comeback.

21 unanswered.

Beautiful stuff.

We keep going.

From Ohio, it was a great game, but

Texas needs some better receivers.

Tom, what's good?

Appreciate you hanging out and dropping by, man.

Yet the receiving core continues to not convince

me completely either.

Tom, I'm with you.

Coleman, I know that he's still getting his

feet wet in the system.

Mosley, I think, really stepped up big at

the end of the game.

Arch was going to Mosley, which I think

game flow, you have to be flexible.

You can't be forcing the ball to Coleman

or to Wingo.

You can't be forcing the ball to anyone

against an Ohio State-type team.

You just can't do it.

You've got to take what the game is

giving you.

You have to take what the defense is

giving you, and Arch did a great job

of that.

When he was hitting Mosley on that last

drive, Mosley's open.

It's there.

Arch isn't really forcing anything on that last

drive.

I think that you definitely would like to

see a guy like Coleman, who you're paying

a lot of money this year to play

for your school.

You'd love to see Cam Coleman be a

Jeremiah Smith.

I know Smith faded slightly there at the

end of the game.

I don't think you can at all blame

the loss on Jeremiah.

He had 164 yards.

He had a couple bounce off his hands,

but there was way more stuff, I think,

if you're an Ohio State fan, you focus

on over Jeremiah Smith.

I think a lot of Longhorns fans expected

Coleman to be maybe a 1B to Jeremiah

Smith's 1A.

Maybe, look, we're being unfair after two weeks.

I think we are.

Let's see what Cam looks like after week

four or week five.

We played two games, but man, you would

have just loved to have seen a monster

game tonight from Cam Coleman.

I'll have to go back and look at

the film.

It's very possible Ohio State wasn't giving them

Cam Coleman.

I talked about that this week in a

reel that I posted.

Wingo plus Coleman is going to be tough

for a lot of teams, even though Wingo

had some boneheaded moves today, boneheaded plays.

Wingo stretches the field for you.

Cam Coleman naturally is going to draw eyes.

You have a lot that can open up

for players like Smothers.

I think, honestly, Emmett Mosley, what you saw

with Emmett Mosley shining today is a direct

result of what I was talking about.

Cam Coleman and Wingo, because of the amount

of attention that they draw, Wingo being the

big stretch, the big hitter, you have Cam

Coleman that can stretch the field, and he

can also run some of the underneath routes

as well.

It's going to leave guys like Mosley and

Smothers out of the backfield.

Shoot, even Spencer Shannon and Emaree Winston, those

guys are going to get opportunities because defenses

are going to be trying to take Coleman,

Wingo, and eliminate those deep threats.

Absolutely.

Question from TikTok here.

Appreciate all the comments.

Thank you so much.

Was this a Heisman trophy win for Arch?

No, I don't think so.

I think that this is a respect win

for Arch.

This is a respect win for Arch.

Did the numbers scream Heisman tonight?

No, but we know all too well that

is what happens a lot at the end

of the season with the Heisman.

It's numbers, baby.

So no, I don't think this is a

Heisman moment for Arch, but this is a

respect moment.

A lot of people disrespect Arch Manning on

a regular.

Overrated, overhyped.

There was nothing overrated or overhyped about engineering

a 20-point comeback against the number one

team in the country that's kicked your butt

up and down the field the last two

years.

There's nothing overhyped.

There's nothing overrated about what I just watched

from Arch Manning.

Was it a perfect game for Manning?

No, but it doesn't have to be.

You won the football game, and Arch Manning

is a big reason you won the football

game, along with the defense, along with Coach

Muschamp in the second half adjustments, along with

Sark in the play calling and the second

half adjustments offensively.

There's a lot that comes together here, but

at the end of the day, this win

should build more respect in the public eye

for Arch Manning.

He has been doubted left and right ever

since he signed with the Texas Longhorns.

Last year, it was left and right.

I mean, they could beat a team by

21-28, and people were going off on

Arch Manning.

It doesn't matter.

When you are a big name like that,

you're going to get criticism regardless.

I don't know how you twist this.

I don't know how anyone twists this.

Again, was it perfect?

No, but when it mattered, was Arch Manning

an incredible football player out there tonight?

Absolutely, and he deserves his flowers for a

performance like this, especially for what he did

in the fourth quarter.

Deep ball to Coleman.

Look, I will say this.

If I'm getting a little picky, it could

have been laid out a little bit better

so Coleman didn't have to leave his feet,

but nevertheless, it is a great throw that

Coleman has to come down with.

Coleman has to come down with that throw.

You're an NFL top prospect, dude.

You got to come down with that throw

if you're Coleman, the one that eventually turned

into the interception.

Hollywood Smothers, got to show him some love

too.

Hollywood was the closer tonight.

He was the closer, man.

Down there at the goal line, who did

they have?

They had Smothers trying to ice the ball

game, and you know what?

He was getting stuck there a little bit,

but it actually worked out in Texas' favor

because it killed more clock, but to me,

this feels like a remember the name moment

for Hollywood.

You look new to school, dual threat, double

-headed monster.

You got Brown as well, but Hollywood is

doing it with the hands out of the

backfield, and he is running hard between the

tackles, between the guards, man.

Hollywood definitely deserves his respect as well for

what he did today.

Jeremiah Smith, he was incredible tonight for Ohio

State.

I know got some Ohio State fans hanging

out.

Appreciate you, man.

Respect, because when fans of the other team

lose, a lot of the times it's crickets.

I appreciate all y'all hanging out.

Look, credit to you.

Ohio State has had our number.

It's about time that the Longhorns finally won

a game.

I mean, seriously, Ohio State, the better team

for the last two years that the Longhorns

have played them, and Ohio State's still, in

my opinion, a very, very good team and

one bad kick away from winning this football

game, and there's more to it than that.

The defense faded a bit in the second

half for the Buckeyes after an incredible first

half.

It was actually the tale of two halves.

Buckeyes' defense was elite in the first half,

bad in the second half, and it flipped

for the Longhorns.

Bad, and I wouldn't even say it was

terrible by the defense because the defense was

working with a short field like for three

straight possessions, so I can't even say the

defense was bad for Texas, but it wasn't

great.

It wasn't outstanding, and then in the second

half for Texas, that's exactly what it was.

Jeremiah Smith, he did exactly what we feared

he was going to do, which is have

a big game, break containment, exploit one-on

-one matchups.

I have no clue why they had Jeremiah

Smith in any one-on-one coverages.

The single coverage on Jeremiah Smith just felt

stupid every time I saw it.

Look, I know that Ohio State has a

lot of different weapons.

You double cover Jeremiah Smith every single play.

It's going to get a little dicey, but

I felt like he was open way too

much in single coverage tonight.

Look, if you throw it to him in

double, and he finds a way to come

down with it, credit to him, but there

were many times single coverage on Jeremiah Smith.

I mean, Muschamp.

I guess that's some confidence in the DBs,

but at the same time, my brother, you

might want to have a little bit of

help over the top against the best wide

receiver in college football.

He did have a couple of drops.

I'm reading the comments right now.

Mr. Go Too Far, appreciate you.

Yeah, I mean, he did have a couple

of drops in crunch time and clutch time.

I still say, I mean, the defense giving

up 21 unanswered there.

That's tough.

The defense was, I think, a little gassed

at the end.

He had the kicker not coming through.

It's not just on Smith and the drops

or Sayin, and, you know, I hit the

incompletions today from him.

It was a collective on each side, the

loss and the win.

Appreciate all you guys.

We keep on going.

Brian, what's good, man?

It feels like the horns can finally win

a big game again.

Comment from YouTube.

It was big getting this game with the

SEC slate this year.

I totally agree.

Huge getting this game because if you lose

this game, then you got to go through

the SEC gauntlet.

Try and only to lose one.

Now you can go through the SEC gauntlet

and hopefully they win every game.

I mean, look, I'm not going to be

mad at them.

Go ahead and win every game.

But if they can manage to only lose

one or two, you lose two, you're it.

You have some cushion now.

You don't want Texas to lose at all.

Don't get it twisted.

But you have a two loss cushion.

You lose this game.

You really feel like we can only lose

one the rest of the way.

The margin for error becomes incredibly thin.

Brian, horns and Rangers win.

OU and the Astros lose.

Brian, yes, sir.

Let's go.

Great comment from YouTube, man.

Got the ice cube going.

Oh, I love it.

Love it.

Bro, since 2004, McKay with the YouTube gold

here.

Number one teams were 191 and O when

leading 20 or more when entering the fourth

quarter until tonight.

History being made.

Now, Mick J, does that change the opinion?

Does that change the opinion?

And what we just watched something historic tonight,

my guy.

Does that change the opinion a little bit

on this win being better or slightly behind

the Tuscaloosa win a couple of years ago?

I was about to say, Mick J, I

think that's that has to change your mind.

I said that this one's a little bigger

than Tuscaloosa and Tuscaloosa was sweet.

That was a sweet victory start going back

home.

Quinn Ewers.

That was a respect game for Quinn Ewers.

We were talking about Arch Manning respect game.

That was a respect game for Quinn Ewers.

And you had Xavier worthy going off in

that game too.

You had a little bit of everything.

The defense balled out and you've won by

double digits against Saban in Tuscaloosa.

Now that hadn't been done very often to

be fair, but 191 and O were number

one teams since 2004, entering the fourth quarter

with a 20 point lead or more.

So proud of them.

Horns tonight.

Comment from TikTok.

Indeed, brother.

We basically, Michael says from TikTok spotted them

three points to start the game and still

one comment here from TikTok.

Buckeyes will run the table and defeat Texas

in a rematch in the natty could see

these teams meeting back up again and it

would be theater.

It would be peak college football theater.

I'd love to see a rematch.

Look at the end of the day.

I'm glad that Texas did not cancel this

game.

It would have been a bad look to

cancel.

I must admit there was a lot of

overreaction last year and I can't say that

I was not a part of it at

all.

You hated seeing Texas who was a clearly

better team than some of the playoff teams

last year.

We don't need to go down that rabbit

hole.

Texas was a better team than some of

the teams that made it into the playoff

last year, plain and simple.

They were, it's, it's not really an arguable

thing for me.

I know some people will still argue it.

I don't even care to get into that

argument.

You either know, or you don't know Texas

deserved to be in the playoff last year.

They were one of the 12 best teams.

The committee was in a tough spot, only

really wanting to put teams with two losses

or fewer in.

I think it would have set a very

interesting precedent, but Texas definitely was rocking the

boat a little bit with some of the

cancellation talk.

I know Sark was hacked off about it

and talked about maybe canceling a game like

this.

I'm glad he didn't because these games are

outstanding for college football and for the city

of Austin, the students, and just everyone who's

a diehard of the Longhorns win or lose.

This game was a treat.

I, this game was probably going to be

one of the best games of the year.

If not the best game of the year,

we'll see what plays out the rest of

the way.

It was the right thing to do to

play this game.

Is it risky in today's state of college

football?

Yes, but the reward is big.

I think that the Longhorns are going to

look back after this one subsides a little

bit and be very thankful they did not

back out.

ArchDoc definitely shot up.

McJay, appreciate the comment.

I agree with that.

Arch Manning, respect game.

Again, forget the Heisman.

That's going to go down as a stats

thing.

I think a lot of the time, I

don't know if Arch is going to get

the numbers to be considered for the Heisman,

but respect game for sure.

Absolutely.

Look, we talked about the defense.

The defense deserves a ton of credit.

Ohio State finished with 372 total yards, but

Texas shut them out in the fourth quarter.

Julian Sayin, one touchdown, one interception, did not

complete passes at a great cliff tonight.

And the defense by no means had, did

they have a perfect night, but they had

a winning fourth quarter.

And that's how I feel about Arch Manning

too.

It wasn't a perfect night, but it was

a winning fourth quarter.

That's for sure.

Incredible that Texas won this game without winning

the turnover battle.

Texas, of course, had a couple of turnovers

tonight.

You had Ohio State with the one interception

at the end of the game.

Pretty impressive.

And that one interception, by the way, that's

not even really one that I would count

being that it happened on the last play.

So Texas found a way, essentially a two

turnover difference, two turnover margin, right?

To still win this game.

That is impressive.

It's pretty wild.

They somehow survived it.

That's what you got to do.

It's not always going to be clean.

They somehow survived it.

They can't make a habit out of this.

Granted, they're not going to play a lot

of teams at the level of Ohio State,

but they can't make a habit out of

this.

But for tonight, they figured out a way.

And at the end of the day, that

scoreboard reads 24-23.

And Texas now goes into next week flying

high.

It's going to be tough, like I said,

to play UTSA next week after a big

game like this.

But nevertheless, I think this is the kind

of win that can change a season.

Texas 2-0.

It's not just a nice win.

You beat the number one team in the

country after being down 20 entering the fourth.

That becomes a reference point, a turning point

in the season, in my opinion, and moving

forward for the rest of the year.

Anytime Texas is in some trouble later, everybody

in that locker room now knows that they've

come back from something that's probably going to

be worse.

I don't think Texas is going to find

themselves trailing by 20 a lot in the

fourth quarter this year.

It feels like this is about the worst

punch you're going to take and about the

worst thing that you're going to have to

come back from this year.

Big moment for the locker room.

Big moment.

This is ultimately, though, kind of where I

keep landing, right?

You can love what Texas showed in the

fourth quarter and still admit there's room for

improvement, which is kind of scary.

This team has not even reached its ceiling

yet, and you just beat the number one

team in the nation.

LSU is going to be tough.

Beam, I'm with you.

This one is going to be tough.

LSU is going to be a challenge, no

doubt.

But again, you've created margin tonight.

You've created valuable margin tonight.

You have an opportunity to now have a

little bit of a better shot running through

the SEC gauntlet.

You drop a couple of games, you drop

a game, your chances are much, much better.

SAS comment, game was equal parts Texas winning

and OSU choking it away.

Good game to you guys.

It's well said.

It's very well said.

Of course, as a Texas fan, I'm naturally

going to gravitate, show a little more love

to the comeback.

But I've said a couple of different times,

this was a melt by OSU.

This is a melt by Ohio State, no

doubt.

The kicker missing, the 40-yarder or whatever

it was.

You had the offense unable to develop that

closeout drive.

You had the defense allowing 21 points in

the fourth quarter.

What was the other side of that?

If you bet Texas in the second half,

I wonder what the odds were.

It wouldn't be the opposite, right?

Do you think they were plus 1,000?

Think they were 10 to one?

Crazy.

Absolutely crazy.

Brian says from YouTube, LSU, definitely a challenge

playing against literally NFL players.

Yeah, it's going to be tough.

That's going to be a tough one for

sure.

The Natties in Vegas this year?

What?

Those of y'all that don't know, that

is where I live now.

Lived in Texas for a very long time.

I've lived out in Vegas now for about

a decade and a half.

Love it out here.

Miss Texas, but love it out here.

The Nattie being in my backyard now got

a little bit interesting.

That is for sure.

That is for sure.

Ryan Day's beard is a little darker than

this.

This is a little lighter, I think, than

Ryan Day's, man.

I'm not laying it on thick like Ryan

does, baby.

Oh, goodness.

What a fun night.

What a fun night.

Let's go ahead and let's look forward to

next week in just a second here, but

to wrap it up, tonight told me Texas

has a level of fight that we had

not really been forced to see yet.

Down 20 to the number one team entering

the fourth quarter, they still found a way.

I don't think there were a lot of

Longhorns fans really counting on a dub after

that third quarter of play.

You're down 20 points.

This team showed you that they've got some

fight in them.

They've got some dog in them, and I

think this is going to bode very well

for them moving forward.

Still a little unsure about the offense, if

I'm being real.

The first three quarters were not amazing, and

I hope that you can maybe just chalk

this one up to really good defense from

Ohio State, really good team, and it's all

downhill from here.

That would be phenomenal, but I'd like to

see a little more consistency with this offense.

Absolutely.

Next thing I'm watching, can Texas take some

of the lessons learned today and apply them

moving forward?

I know UTSA is not necessarily going to

be the next best stop to see that,

to evaluate that, but I would love to

see Texas take this, look at some of

the issues from tonight, and just become even

sharper.

That is the scariest takeaway for me.

You won this football game, and you didn't

even play your best football.

All right.

Look, on deck, UTSA, they come to Austin

next Saturday, close out Texas non-conference schedule,

then the Longhorns will go to Tennessee.

And you've got Tennessee in Knoxville on, what

is that, the 26th?

There you go.

Clean up the turnovers.

I'd love to see a zero, a goose

egg against a team like UTSA.

Control the ball.

Don't spend three quarters waiting for the offense

to wake up.

And I'd like to see Arch come out

sharp, build on this fourth quarter, keep on

that positive, that upward trajectory, man.

And Hollywood Smothers, I know Sark said it's

going to be a two-headed monster out

of the backfield.

I kind of feel like Hollywood earned it

a little bit.

I'm not saying that you go away from

Raleek.

I think Raleek had some bad moments in

this game, but he had some great runs.

I think that he is going to be

a great change of pace.

I kind of think in a big game

like this, you really saw Smothers shine.

He's valuable out of the backfield, between the

tackles, between the guards.

He showed you that on the goal line.

He can catch the football out of the

backfield as well.

I think you might be seeing Hollywood Smothers

take over the lion's share a little bit.

I feel like he was another one that

earned some respect tonight, no doubt.

I think next week you use it as

a bit of a correction week, fine-tuning

week, if you will, before you go and

you play in Knoxville on the road.

A challenging environment for sure, but a place

I think Texas can get a win.

Texas, I think, in that game will be

favored.

Tennessee ranked number 18.

They beat Georgia Tech today.

I don't know who Tennessee has next week.

I'll see if I can get the Tennessee

schedule up for you guys real quick.

Tennessee plays a good old Kennesaw State.

They played Furman, Georgia Tech, and Kennesaw State.

So Texas is going to be a pretty

rude awakening for them, needless to say.

Right now DraftKings has Texas as a seven

-point favorite on the road in Knoxville, seven

-point favorite in that Tennessee game.

Things can change, but right now that's telling

you something.

If you factor in the three-point home

field advantage, if you're not into the sports

betting, sports gambling, typically they say home field

advantage worth a field goal or so, give

or take.

So if this was being played at DKR,

it might be a minus 13.

That's the kind of swing we're talking about.

Neutral field, minus 10.

Definitely going to be an interesting couple of

weeks here.

Can't overlook UTSA.

Don't want to have an embarrassing sloppy game

against them.

Stay focused, and then you head into your

first road game of the year.

Sharp, ready to get a win, ready to

continue all this positive momentum.

Hey, appreciate all y'all hanging out.

We are going to wrap things up.

We have been going almost an hour and

a half, over an hour and a half.

I am going to get back on later

tonight.

It's going to be late night, and we're

going to do a Rangers Live.

I'm going to take about an hour break.

So if you're still up after midnight in

Texas, I'll probably be hopping on the live

and maybe doing a little bit more podcast

style.

So look, if you're up late after midnight

Texas time, and you want to watch and

listen to some Rangers talk, we will be

doing Rangers a little bit later on in

the evening.

It's a long day, but you know what?

I love what I do.

I love talking sports.

Love talking Texas sports.

So if you are a fan of Rangers,

Cowboys, one of the two, this is the

place for you.

Tomorrow night, we will be live for the

Cowboys game as well.

So busy weekend, but good stuff from Ride

on Rangers.

We are really glad that football is back.

Thrilled that football is back.

We'll see what we can get from the

Rangers and the Cowboys tomorrow, but the Longhorns

have gotten this weekend off to a good

start, haven't they?

Crazy win tonight.

Texas wins 24 to 23.

Arch Manning leads the comeback.

The defense allows a measly three points in

the second half.

Incredible stuff.

And we're on to UTSA next week.

We'll have some videos out to you guys

throughout the week.

Some of my shorts from the Longhorns pod

that we did today, from the Longhorns live

show that we did today.

Appreciate you sharing those with other people that

you know are diehard Longhorns fans.

Spread the word.

But the content is opening up here.

We are football season, baseball season, basketball season

starting up soon.

It's going to be great.

Speaking of, hope you guys have a great

rest of the weekend.

We'll hopefully see you next Saturday after the

UTSA game.

We'll go live fourth quarter once again.

And as I always say to end every

show, God bless and Hook 'em.
