Arch Manning delivered one of his best road performances of the season last week, rallying Texas to a gutsy road win at Missouri.
A week later, he nearly looked like he couldn't recapture that form. If anything, his performance slightly resembled the rough two-game stretch in mid-October that ended with losses to Oklahoma and Florida.
Then came a late spark from the 6-foot-4 quarterback, who led Texas on a 12-play, 58-yard game-winning drive, capped by a 4-yard touchdown pass to Raleek Brown with four seconds remaining in the fourth quarter, lifting the Longhorns to a 22-21 comeback victory over the 22nd-ranked Tigers at Tiger Stadium in Baton Rouge.
Manning's
night — 19 of 35 passing for 174 passing with a touchdown and three interceptions — started on a strong note, as he drove Texas down the field on the game's opening drive with an 11-play scoring drive that he capped off with a 1-yard rushing touchdown.
His mistakes were all too familiar.
Several stemmed from poor decisions, while others came on overthrows caused by pressure breaking through Texas' offensive line. One example of the latter came on his third interception of the night: facing first down with a 21-16 deficit in the fourth quarter, Manning overthrew his target under pressure from Dominick McKinley, and DJ Pickett capitalized by making the interception.
