The No. 16 Texas Longhorns have now made things very interesting for the College Football Playoff committee after pulling off a stunning upset on Friday night over the previously undefeated No. 3 Texas A&M Aggies.

Texas won 27–17 behind its defense, while the offense came alive in the second half after trailing 10–3 at halftime.

Led by quarterback Arch Manning, the Longhorns outscored the Aggies 24–7 after the break. Manning finished 14-of-29 for 179 yards, two total touchdowns, 53 rushing yards, and no turnovers.

He sealed the win with a 35-yard touchdown run on third down with just over seven minutes left, stretching the lead to two scores and putting the Longhorns firmly in control.
