National reaction to Texas' 31-10 win over Wyoming: 'A win is a win'
In the first half, it seemed that Texas may have eaten the rat poison that they spent so long attempting to avoid. Entering the half only up 10-7, X (formerly Twitter) users wondered if the Longhorns' dramatic 34-24 win over Alabama last week was a fluke, especially considering how the Crimson Tide struggled with a 17-3 win over South Florida.
Panic peaked at the end of the third quarter with the scored tied at 10, but the fourth was a complete reversal By the end of the game, fans were raving about the once again dominant defense and a big game from Xavier Worthy and Jonathon Brooks. Quinn Ewers struggled a bit with his accuracy and overall consistency, but Texas will take a 31-10 win any day. They are 3-0 for the first time since 2012.
Here are some national reactions to Texas' win.
A win is a win. Texas pulls away in the 4th quarter to beat Wyoming, 31-10.

Can't get too high after the Alabama win. Gotta take Wyoming seriously. They did beat Texas Tech.

Wyoming just converted a 4th-and-1 in the red zone and now has 1st-and-goal trailing just 10-7 against No. 4 Texas.

Wyoming just tied Texas with a SEVENTEEN-play, TEN-minute drive ... that ended in a field goal. Texas punted early in the third quarter and will get like one more snap before the quarter ends.

Tired: Texas must be really good after beating Alabama by 10
Wired: Texas let this Alabama offense score 24 points?— Dad Turnipseed (@PFF_dril) September 16, 2023
Texas fans complaining smh… Yes it’s Wyoming… but they are a solid team and will win some games this year. If this is our “C” game I’m good with it. Tough to get up for this game after Alabama week. Our Defense is legit and will allow our offense to get in rhythm. Then we are a…

Texas has just 120 yards of offense and three series that went 3-and-out.
