  "account": "Oklahoma's Ryan Fodje recovered a fumble during the Red River Rivalry game against Texas on Saturday, October 10, 2026, at the Cotton Bowl in Dallas, Texas. After the game, Texas fans questioned if the loss would cost them their No. 1 ranking for the following Sunday. Texas lost 27-24 to No. 1-ranked Oklahoma, primarily due to Tate Sandell's 47-yard field goal and the two fourth-quarter interceptions by Arch Manning. The Longhorns' defense, though strong, did not force any turnovers, and their special teams struggled, allowing a blocked punt recovered for a touchdown and a punt return for a touchdown for the first time in 13 years. Despite these setbacks, Texas remains eligible for the SEC title game in December.",
  "summary": "No. 1 Texas won't be able to call itself No. 1 Texas come Sunday afternoon, not after Saturday's walk-off loss to Oklahoma at the Cotton Bowl.",
