DALLAS, Texas – With quarterback Sam Bradford sidelined, replacement Landry Jones threw interceptions on the Sooners' last two drives of the game and helped Texas secure a 16-13 win in the Red River Rivalry.

Bradford left the game after eight plays with his second shoulder injury of the season. The Sooners played sloppy throughout the game, committing a total of five turnovers. The defense repeatedly stepped up to keep OU in the game, but in the end wasn't enough to win.

This is the fifth year in a row that the team that committed the fewest turnovers won the Red River Rivalry. It is also the third consecutive time the team that led in rushing yards won.
