Quintrevion Wisner ran for 118 yards and a touchdown and Texas’ defense held No. 18 Oklahoma to just 237 yards as the top-ranked Longhorns blew out the Sooners 34-3 on Saturday in Southeastern Conference play at Dallas.The win was just the Longhorns’ second in the last seven meetings with the Sooners.Texas (6-0, 2-0 SEC) took control in the final 2:30 before half, breaking open what had been a tight game.The Sooners looked like they’d caught a break, when Robert Spears-Jennings chased down Wisner just before the goal line, sending the ball bounding toward the back of the end zone on what looked to be a long touchdown run.But Longhorns wide receiver Silas Bolden raced in and recovered the fumble just before it went out of play for the touchdown to put Texas up 14-3.After Michael Hawkins Jr. fumbled on the second play of the next drive, the Longhorns struck quickly.This time, Wisner held onto the ball, breaking free for a 43-yard touchdown for Texas on the first play after the turnover with 1:40 remaining.Oklahoma (4-2, 1-2) turned the ball over again on their next play, but this time the Longhorns couldn’t take advantage, going into halftime ahead 21-3.Texas then ate up more than nine minutes of clock on two third-quarter possessions to all but put the game away.Quinn Ewers, returning from an oblique injury suffered Sept. 14, finished 20 of 29 for 199 yards, one touchdown and one interception.He also ran for a touchdown late in the contest.
