Longhorns stumble again: No. 7 Texas stunned by Florida for second consecutive loss
Florida, playing without its starting quarterback and top receiver, roared back from a 14-point deficit to stun Texas for the second straight year.
Florida quarterback Tramell Jones Jr. threw for 155 yards and two touchdowns in his first start as he led his team to a 27-24 victory over No. 7 Texas on Saturday. The Gators came back from a 14-point deficit to stun the ranked Longhorns, who have now lost two straight games for the first time since 2021. Despite scoring 10 points in the first two series, Texas struggled to move the ball, gaining just 13 total first downs in the first 24-plus minutes of the second half.
Texas had two three-and-outs in the first half and a fumble late in the game, which sealed the victory for Florida.
