Texas tried to get back into the end zone before time expired. Quinn Ewers threw a few great passes to get the Longhorns near the end zone. He missed on his last three passes as his fade to Adonai Mitchell was knocked away by Washington’s Elijah Jackson.
"Those guys are the most resilient guys I have ever been around," Huskies coach Kalen DeBoer said after the game.
