Florida Upsets No. 9 Texas 29-21 Behind Lagway and a Relentless Defense

The loss underscored Texas’ shaky offense, raising scrutiny on Arch Manning ahead of Oklahoma.

Overview

  • DJ Lagway threw for 298 yards and two touchdowns as Jadan Baugh added 107 rushing yards and a score to pace Florida’s balanced attack.
  • Florida’s defense sacked Arch Manning six times, and special teams produced a blocked punt that rolled out of the end zone for a safety.
  • Dallas Wilson caught six passes for 111 yards and both of Lagway’s touchdowns as the Gators totaled 457 yards to snap a three-game skid.
  • Texas managed just 11 rushing yards on nine carries from its running backs, and the offensive line drew multiple pre-snap penalties.
  • Manning finished 16-of-29 for 263 yards with two touchdowns and two fourth-quarter interceptions as calls to bench him surfaced online, even as teammate Ryan Wingo voiced full support.
