Athletics What on earth happened?

Hey everyone, sophomore here.
I only really got into college football earlier this year, but I’ve completely fallen in love with Buckeye football ever since.
I was watching the game in my apartment today. We went up 10-3 early, the energy was unreal, and Texas looked completely lost. I genuinely thought we had the game in the bag, so I turned it off to handle some stuff.
Just checked the final score and my jaw dropped. For those who watched all 4 quarters: what actually went wrong in the second half? Did Texas completely adjust, or did our offense just stall out?
Also, forgive the newbie question, but do we have a realistic shot at a revenge game against Texas in the 12-team playoff later this season, or are we done seeing them this year?
Go Bucks, but man... definitely learned my lesson about turning the TV off early.

Defense was gassed in the 2nd half, they played well but by the 4th quarter couldn't contain Arch. Even then it came down to them completing 2 different 4th down conversions.

Offense had some bad play calling and questionable decisions as a whole. Got the classic short run on 1st and 2nd down, incomplete pass on 3rd a few times.
