After a shaky start to the 2025 season, Texas quarterback Arch Manning showcased his true potential in a commanding home debut.
Manning, the highly-anticipated nephew of NFL legends Peyton and Eli, lit up the scoreboard by throwing four touchdown passes in a breathtaking five-minute explosion. In a stunning display of talent, he connected on three consecutive touchdown passes, leaving fans in awe.
Adding to the highlight reel, Manning sprinted for a 20-yard touchdown run during the Longhorns' overwhelming 38-7 victory. Yet, the game wasn't without its blemishes; he did throw an interception and had another pass that could have easily been picked off.
Reflecting on his performance, Manning candidly stated, "There’s a lot to work on. I felt it was a bit sloppy on my end. Turning the ball over in the red zone is something I need to eliminate. I can definitely play better. Overall, the performance was just a tad sloppy."
Looking ahead, the Longhorns have two crucial tune-up games against UTEP and Sam Houston, setting the stage for their transition into SEC play. Manning's resilience and drive to improve will be crucial as Texas prepares to take on tougher opponents.
