Texas was in control through the first half against Arkansas, but the Razorbacks responded well. They got a touchdown from Ja’Quinden Jackson and a field goal to cut the Longhorns’ lead to 13-10 as they searched for an upset.

But Texas put together an efficient touchdown drive to regain control and eventually come away with the victory. It was the type of game Steve Sarkisian expected, and he praised his team’s performance to fight off the second-half charge.

“It was just one of those days they were going to make us earn it,” Sarkisian told ABC’s Katie George after the 20-10 victory. “We weren’t going to get many chunk plays, so we had to be really efficient. I thought that was a really efficient drive on the ground, hitting a couple passes. Great catch by Golden for the touchdown.”
