Updating Texas rankings in college football polls after Longhorns smash Oklahoma

Texas football steamrolled Oklahoma in the Red River Rivalry on Saturday and earned the right to spend another week at the top of the polls.

The Longhorns came in at No. 1 in the latest US LBM Coaches Poll released on Sunday following a 34-3 victory at the Cotton Bowl that moved them to 6-0 on the season and 2-0 in SEC play.

Texas also retained its spot at the top of the AP Poll.
