Texas rallied to defeat No. 18 Missouri 34-20, led by Arch Manning's 297 yards and three touchdowns. The Longhorns (7-2, 4-2 SEC) overcame a late fumble by Raleek Brown with a decisive TD pass to Raleek Brown in the final minutes.

Austin Simmons added 252 passing yards and two touchdowns, including a 75-yard strike to Naeshaun Montgomery that sealed the win.
The Tigers (6-3, 3-3) had built a 10-all halftime lead but Texas' fourth-quarter defense forced consecutive punts.
