    The Longhorns are no longer undefeated.

    No. 1 Texas couldn’t overcome a poor first-half performance against No. 5 Georgia on Saturday night, losing by a final score of 30-15.

    Quinn Ewers had turnover issues all game, as he threw an interception and fumbled the ball twice in the first quarter.

    The Longhorns fell into an early 20-0 hole with Ewers in the game, prompting head coach Steve Sarkisian to briefly insert backup Arch Manning into the game. Manning also couldn’t get a rhythm in the pocket against Georgia’s defense, completing three of his six throws for 19 yards.

    Ewers ultimately was reset into the match to start the second half. He finished 25 of 43 for 211 yards and two touchdowns to go along with three turnovers as fans booed his struggles.

    I’ve seen enough of Quinn Ewers over the past two seasons to know he’s not really a man. Arch Manning is the better player’s man. It’s that clear!

    Rose @RoseWilliams

    I have a lot of love for Quinn Ewers, but his inability to run, throw on the run and be effective without a clean pocket is so hard to overcome at times

    Robert Griffin III @RGIII

    Texas BENCHED QUINN EWERS?!?!?!

    Wilson @TitansTalkGuy

    Quinn Ewers isn’t a high-level college starter, let alone an NFL starter.
    He’s not good enough…

    Joe Fortenbaugh @Joe Fortenbaugh

    I can’t stay with Ewers after this. The biggest game of the season, on home turf, and he was nowhere to be seen. His floor may be higher than Manning’s, but Texas doesn’t win a title with a QB on a high floor.

    Texas started to gain some momentum in the third quarter, scoring on the team’s first possession of the second half. The Longhorns were able to cut the deficit to 23-15 after one controversial pass interference ruling after an interception, but they could never get closer to the Bulldogs for the rest of the game.

    Georgia scored a touchdown early in the fourth quarter to push the lead to double figures again, sealing the victory.

    The Bulldogs overcame a subpar performance from Carson Beck, who passed for just 175 yards and threw three interceptions.

    In addition to Ewers, fans criticized the team as a whole.

    Nash @NashTalksTexas

    It’s hard to blame the defense when the only scores come from the offense, which gave Georgia the damn ball in the redzone

    Brandon Adams @DawgNationDaily

    Georgia came on their way to face No. 1 Texas in the largest crowd in the history of their stadium and they screamed from wire to wire. The only time the Longhorns showed any fight was by throwing trash on their field. What about those Dawgs!!!

    This is all I’m going to say about Texas.
    Welcome to the SEC, baby! 👍🏻

    Texas and Georgia now own identical 6-1 records after Saturday’s result.
