Hook 'em Horns! No. 11 Texas, Ewers pull off 34-24 victory at No. 3 Alabama
Quinn Ewers and the Texas Longhorns gave themselves an early welcome to the Southeastern Conference. Ewers finished what he started last season, passing for 349 yards and three touchdowns to lead No. 11 Texas to a 34-24 victory over third-ranked Alabama on Saturday night in a huge win for a program trying to climb back to its old level of prominence nationally. The Longhorns (2-0) delivered the biggest victory under Steve Sarkisian in a game that slipped away last season after a red-hot Ewers exited because of a first-quarter shoulder injury.
