QB
Quinn Ewers, 54.3 (82 snaps)
The freshman signal-caller had his worst outing as a Longhorn. He went 19-of-49, 319 yards, two touchdowns and three interceptions. The combination of his first true road game, Oklahoma winds, and receivers not often on the same page eventually did in the Texas’ quarterback.
RB
Bijan Robinson, 78.1 (63 snaps); Roschon Johnson, 71.4 (25 snaps)
The Texas rushing attack of Robinson and Johnson combined for 213 yards and 7.8 yards per carry.
Robinson also added a 41-yard touchdown catch on the day.
WR
Brenen Thompson, 84.2 (6 snaps); Xavier Worthy, 60.0 (80 snaps)
Thompson led all receivers in scoring grades after his 32-yard catch.
Worthy had a pedestrian 78 yards receiving on four catches, but it was his 14 targets that really stifled the flow of the Longhorns’ offense.
TE
Jahleel Billingsley, 80.1 (18 snaps)
The Alabama transfer finally made his first catch in a Texas uniform, with 33 yards on two grabs. His blocking wasn’t bad either with a 67.3 grade for pass-blocking and 53.2 in run-blocking.
OL
Christian Jones, 65.4 (82 snaps); Jake Majors, 65.2 (82 snaps)
The two eldest offensive linemen in the starting lineup led the way on Saturday. Majors registered an 85.5 grade for pass-blocking, while freshman Devon Campbell notched an 78.5 pass-blocking grade in 10 snaps as well.
DL
Alfred Collins, 86.0 (29 snaps); Moro Ojomo, 80.4 (40 snaps)
As a whole, the Texas defensive line graded out well. Collins led the way, adding three tackles. Ojomo tallied four tackles and one tackle for loss.
EDGE/LB
DeMarvion Overshown 69.6 (79 snaps); Diamonte Tucker-Dorsey, 71.4 (26 snaps)
Overshown tallied eight tackles, two tackles for loss, and one sack while playing sideline-to-sideline with the hit stick and a 75.1 rush-defense. Tucker-Dorsey added two tackles as well and a 72.1 coverage grade.
CB
D’Shawn Jamison, 67.2 (74 snaps); Ryan Watts, 74.2 (52 snaps)
Watts led the corners in grades, even after missing almost the entire second half, and contributed a huge interception at the goal line for the Horns. Jamison added a 66.7 coverage grade.
S/Nickel
Jahdae Barron, 61.0 (104 snaps); Jerrin Thompson, 73.5 (101 snaps)
Thompson led the safeties in grades while notching five tackles, three solo, and three pass-breakups, with a 76.3 coverage grade. Barron led the defensive in tackles with 12 and added 1.5 tackles for loss, with a 75.3 pass-rushing grade.
