Mateer's Cotton Bowl Redemption: Oklahoma Upsets No. 1 Texas 27-24

Oklahoma defeated No. 1 Texas 27-24 in the 2026 Red River Rivalry at the Cotton Bowl, securing a historic upset. The game ended with a last-second 47-yard field goal by Tate Sandell, who had missed his previous three attempts. Oklahoma quarterback John Mateer completed 18 of 26 passes for 155 yards, marking a significant rebound after a disastrous September. Texas quarterback Arch Manning threw two critical fourth-quarter interceptions, including a pick-six, which proved fatal for the Longhorns.
