SEC football Week 9 roundup: Vandy puts scare into Texas, Ole Miss rallies

NASHVILLE, Tenn. — Quinn Ewers threw for 288 yards and 3 touchdowns Saturday as No. 5 Texas beat No. 25 Vanderbilt 27-24 Saturday in its SEC road debut.

The Longhorns (7-1, 3-1 SEC) bounced back from the loss to Georgia last week that ended their stay at No. 1. They also beat Vanderbilt in Nashville for the first time since 1925 as these new league teammates renewed a series last played in 1928 in Dallas.

Vanderbilt (5-3, 2-2) had a three-game winning streak snapped in its first game ranked in the Top 25 since the 2012 Music City Bowl.
