No. 10 Texas lost its grip on a playoff spot at Sanford Stadium on Nov. 15, 2025, outscored 21-0 in the fourth quarter of a 35-10 defeat before 93,033. It ended a four-game winning streak.

Clearing the Longhorns' operation out of Athens took three aircraft and most of the night. An Airbus A319 left Athens-Ben Epps for Austin-Bergstrom at 1:20 a.m. ET, a 70-seat CommuteAir Embraer 170 followed at 1:52 a.m., and a Sun Country Boeing 737-800 closed it out at 3:18 a.m., landing in Texas after sunrise. Transportation Department charter filings for Athens list Austin charters by several carriers that November.

The filings identify carrier, aircraft and route. They do not say which travelers or equipment moved on which jet.
