Texas defeats Ohio State in 24-23 comeback victory at Austin

Texas rallied from a 20-point deficit to defeat Ohio State 24-23 on Saturday in Austin. The Buckeyes led 23-3 entering the final quarter before Texas quarterback Arch Manning engineered a fourth-quarter comeback. Manning connected on two key fourth-down conversions to sustain scoring drives, culminating in two 1-yard rushing touchdowns by Hollywood Smothers. The final go-ahead touchdown occurred with 25 seconds remaining. Ohio State wide receiver Jeremiah Smith recorded 164 receiving yards and a touchdown in the effort, but a missed 45-yard field goal by Connor Hawkins in the closing minutes halted the Buckeyes' potential response. This result marks the largest comeback for the Longhorns in 19 years.
