- The Longhorns squandered a 24-3 lead.
- A final interception sealed the win.

## Summary

Texas beat No. 7 Ole Miss 34-27 in Austin, surviving a late surge after letting a 21-point lead disappear. The narrow win matters because it offers relief for a Longhorns team under pressure, while renewing doubts about its ability to sustain strong performances across both halves.

Arch Manning helped Texas race to a 24-3 lead, but the Longhorns managed only 19 yards in the third quarter as Ole Miss scored 21 unanswered points. Texas rallied in the fourth, then held on after the Rebels kicked a field goal and recovered an onside kick; Trinidad Chambliss’s final throw was intercepted in the end zone. The result leaves questions about both teams’ standing among the SEC’s contenders.
