Texas stayed put at No. 11 in the AP Poll after Week 1.
The Longhorns got off to a slow start against Rice but ultimately separated from the Owls in the second half to win 37-10. Texas’ defense was the highlight of the day, forcing three turnovers and getting consistent pressure on quarterback JT Daniels.
Other teams across the country had more convincing wins. For the Big 12 in particular, Oklahoma dominated Arkansas State 73-0. The win saw the Sooners climb two spots in the AP Poll to No. 18. Kansas State is the only other Big 12 program ranked this week.
