Oklahoma's defense forced two second-half interceptions of Texas quarterback Arch Manning, including a crucial takeaway by Courtland Guillory that set up the winning drive before a capacity crowd of 92,100.

Quarterback John Mateer connected with Isaiah Sategna III for gains of 13 and 20 yards along the Texas sideline, moving Oklahoma into field-goal range with nine seconds remaining. Both completions survived replay reviews.

Lloyd Avant tied the game on a 2-yard touchdown run just 12 seconds into the final quarter. Moments later, Peyton Bowen intercepted an overthrown pass from Manning and returned it 42 yards for a touchdown, giving the Sooners their first lead at 24-17 with 10:07 remaining.
