By Austin Meek, Chris Vannini and Sam Khan Jr.

Texas solidified its status as a national title contender by going to Michigan and dominating last year’s champion 31-12 behind three takeaways from the defense and a strong performance from quarterback Quinn Ewers.

The No. 3 Longhorns ended the No. 10 Wolverines’ 23-game home winning streak, which dated back to November 2020, and it was Michigan’s first regular-season loss since October 2021.
