Texas' Tom Herman 'Absolutely Crushed' for Sam Ehlinger After Loss to Oklahoma

Texas Longhorns head coach Tom Herman expressed regret Saturday for the team's inability to come through with a win for quarterback Sam Ehlinger against the rival Oklahoma Sooners.

According to Brian Davis of the Austin American-Statesman, Herman said: "Crushed. Absolutely crushed that we as a family didn't do enough collectively for him to finish his career against these guys the way that he deserved to. I feel like we all let him down."

The No. 22 Longhorns fell 53-45 to Oklahoma in four overtimes in Saturday's Red River Showdown, leaving Ehlinger with a 1-4 career record against the Sooners.
