Oklahoma survives Texas comeback to beat No. 22 Longhorns 53-45 in 4OT

Texas came back again. But Oklahoma still won.

The No. 22 Longhorns scored 14 points in the final four minutes of regulation to force overtime. And this one took four overtimes to figure out. After each team missed field goals in the third overtime, Oklahoma got a TD and a two-point conversion to start the fourth overtime. Oklahoma DB Tre Brown then picked off Sam Ehlinger on Texas’ possession to seal a 53-45 win.

The Oklahoma defense had played well until the final minutes of regulation. The much-maligned Sooners defense had figured out how to tackle, rush the passer and force turnovers.
