No. 4 Texas vs. No. 1 Ohio State live updates: Ryan Wingo catches TD to make it 23-10

Top-ranked Ohio State travelled to Darrell K Royal-Texas Memorial Stadium on September 12, 2026, for a marquee Week 2 showdown against fourth-ranked Texas. Entering the contest trailing 2-3 in the all-time series and on a two-game skid against the Buckeyes dating back to January 2025, Steve Sarkisian's Longhorns aimed to break a drought extending to the 2009 Fiesta Bowl.

Quarterback Arch Manning warmed up for the host squad as Texas sought redemption following previous postseason heartbreaks.

Despite an unfortunate piece of history for the Longhorns in the opening quarter, Texas battled back into contention during the clash. Ryan Wingo hauled in a scoring reception to bring the deficit to 23-10, and a subsequent touchdown by Hollywood Smothers further tightened the gap to 23-17.
