The Sporting News: Texas 28, Florida 17
Bill Bender writes: "Arch Manning has a 53.2% completion percentage with three
TDs and three interceptions in SEC play — and this is a dangerous spot for the Longhorns. Florida, however, has the worst pass defense in the SEC (268.7 ypg.), and Texas allows 2.8 yards per carry. Look for Texas to get revenge for last year's 29-21 loss to the Gators."

Bill Speros writes: "The Gators got swamped by South Carolina on Saturday. Texas, meanwhile, suffered a hit-and-run loss as the Sooner Schooner rolled through the Cotton Bowl with a stunning 27-24 upset win over the No. 1-ranked Longhorns. Arch Manning threw a pair of 4th-quarter interceptions — including his first-ever pick-six — in the loss. Florida's offense is broken. And its tattered defense gives Arch and Sark a perfect get-right opportunity. And given Texas' one SEC loss, there's no room for mercy when it comes to running up the score. If Arch doesn't throw it away more than once."
