Article  #1 Texas upset by an unranked team that literally has no offense? (ugly style)

Austin Steve: "So much for the family pedigree. How do you lose when going against the most pathetic offense in Division 1 college football? John Mateer and crew play like characters in a slapstick film when they take the field. There are high schools that are better on that side of the ball. It was a done deal that Matthew McConaughey would be celebrating yet again after the game. What happened?"

EXCERPT: With an unranked Sooners team pulling the upset over No. 1 Texas, the Longhorns made ugly history on Saturday. Per ESPN Insights, the Longhorns became just the second team since 2010 to be ranked No. 1 in the Associated Press poll and lose to an unranked team.

I guess Texas knocking off Ohio State was a fluke. Watched til halftime and changed channel figuring Oklahoma had no chance. Turn on sports radio this week and hear all betting experts/houses claim they called it.

In their defense, I guess it's an annual rivalry game where whoever the lesser team is in a particular year has been known for pulling off upsets in the past.

But: "In 122 years of the Red River Rivalry, Oklahoma had never beaten a No. 1 Texas team. Until Saturday. And it took every bit of scrap and scrape the Sooners could muster to do it."

Oklahoma's offense is reputedly so horrible that it is their defense and special teams that have to go above and beyond to score the points. And from what I understand, that's what happened here. Their offense only scored one touchdown in the game. The other two came from a blocked punt and an interception. Plus two field goals.
