  1. Past hour
  2. Not a berth in the CFP. They need to be playing for it all. I can’t think of a better time. Simmons and Manning could literally be 1-2 in the draft. It’s time for the final step.
  3. All I’ll say is Sark has some changes ahead of him still if we want to get where we want to go.
  4. That was one game where I was really embarrassed to be a Texas fan. Confirmed every suspicion and doubt I had about McW and his coaching abilities.
  5. Geez who needs the hatred spewed from rival fan bases with supposed 💩 Texas fans like this. 🤣🤘😂
  6. Solid post keep it up 🫡
  7. All we have is Arch. Rest of the team is underwhelming. I can't tell if it's due to poor coaching or avg players. Bottomline can Sark bring us to the CFP??? Sark is good PR but too Nice, not Tough.
  8. ~*~ B E A U T I F U L ~*~ & H O O K ' E M !!! 🤘🎅 🇨🇱
  9. PLEASE, Get some dogs around this man out of the portal for whats more than likely his last season as a longhorn.
  10. Arch and Clark plus a very surprising back up defense just showed the depth of what Texas has. You think the expectations for Arch were big this yea? Wait till August 2026! Hook Em everyone! Happy New Year!
  11. Today
  12. Arch has really come on as year has gone by. Sark still gets stubborn with RPO plays. If you review the year that has been where Arch has struggled the most and the ball is deflected.
  13. Throughout the 2025 season, whenever I’ve been asked to describe or define the identity of the Texas offense, my answer hasn’t changed. It's Arch Manning. When the Longhorns started a critical fourth-quarter drive in Wednesday’s 41-27 win over Michigan in the Citrus Bowl, with Texas (10-3) facing a 27-24 deficit with 10:56 remaining in regulation, @Rod Babers wondered out loud during our watch along whether Steve Sarkisian would focus on players or plays to move the football. Immediately after Manning’s fourth-and-2 scramble for 15 yards, which preceded his 30-yard touchdown strike to Kaliq Lockett for the go-ahead score, we had our answer. “Arch is the play!” he said. Just like he did in leading the Longhorns to wins over Oklahoma, Vanderbilt and Texas A&M in the regular season, Sarkisian chose to lean on Manning’s playmaking ability in the clutch. And, once again, Manning delivered, including a 60-yard touchdown scamper with 5:06 to play, which served as the final nail in the Wolverines’ coffin. Manning played turnover-free football in the Longhorns’ four wins over opponents ranked in the Associated Press Top 25 this season. With his four-touchdown outing against Michigan (9-4), Manning (21-for-34 passing for 221 yards and two touchdowns; nine rushing attempts for 155 yards and two scores en route to Citrus Bowl MVP honors) accounted for 10 total touchdowns (seven passing and three rushing) while quarterbacking Texas to wins over the Wolverines, Sooners, Commodores and Aggies. Even though he was bruised and bleeding in the fourth quarter, a time in which an offense that was already playing without Quintrevion Wisner and DeAndre Moore Jr. had to adjust on the fly when injuries took Emmett Mosley V (five catches for 51 yards) and Ryan Wingo (64 yards on four receptions) out of the lineup, Manning did something in Wednesday’s win that every great Longhorn quarterback has done at some point. His presence, playmaking ability and will to win elevated inexperienced weapons like Lockett and Christian Clark (105 yards and a touchdown on 20 carries) to a level nobody who’s watched Texas this season could’ve predicted was possible. Those who follow the program have had a front-row seat to watch Manning’s season-long trajectory throughout. As the curtain falls on Manning’s redshirt sophomore campaign, his performance and production are in line with what a lot of folks unfairly expected he’d show from the outset in 2025. He’ll take a 12-3 record as a starting quarterback into the 2026 season, one in which the Longhorns will be expected to contend for a berth in the College Football Playoff. While Sarkisian and the Texas organization will dive into the transfer portal to build a roster capable of standing tall after navigating a nine-game SEC schedule, nobody can question whether or not the Longhorns have a championship-caliber quarterback. Texas will enter 2026 with a quarterback who has a legitimate case to be labeled as college football’s top gunslinger. View full news story

  15. The difference in team speed was striking. I felt sorry for Gardere. Did not have a chance.
  16. He was definitely in and playing. But I didn’t really see Simon getting in.
  17. I was there and it sucked to realize that we were not even in Miami's league, in addition to my frozen ass.
  18. Vince Young against Michigan in 2004 Rose bowl (top bowl outside of championship): 372 total yards, 5 total TDs Arch against Michigan in 2025 Cheez-It Bowl (top bowl outside of playoff): 376 Total yards, 4 total TDs
  19. Turning down 8 million at that age. He really is a lifetime longhorn.
