NASHVILLE, Tenn. (AP) — Quinn Ewers threw for 288 yards and three touchdowns as No. 5 Texas made its Southeastern Conference road debut and beat No. 25 Vanderbilt 27-24. Coach Steve Sarkisian called it a “culture” and “toughness” win. The Longhorns bounced back from the loss to Georgia last week that ended their stay at No. 1. Vanderbilt snapped a three-game winning streak playing its first game ranked in the Top 25 since the 2012 Music City Bowl. Vanderbilt sacked Ewers four times and had two interceptions, but it wasn’t enough to take down Texas.
