The No. 3-ranked Texas Longhorns defeated the Kentucky Wildcats 31-14 at DKR Stadium on Saturday, improving their record to 10-1 overall and 6-1 in the SEC. This victory marks Texas's first win over Kentucky since 1951 and was achieved on Senior Night, celebrating the contributions of the team's seniors. The Longhorns rushed for 250 yards, securing their second consecutive 10-win regular season. They are now one win away from clinching a spot in the SEC Championship game, with a crucial matchup against the Texas A&M Aggies next week. The Aggies, meanwhile, could advance to the SEC title game if they win their next two games. Quarterback Quinn Ewers' health remains a concern as Texas prepares for the decisive game.
