Arch Manning leads Texas past Ohio State with three late touchdowns
Summary

Texas quarterback Arch Manning guided the Longhorns to a 24-23 victory over Ohio State on Saturday after overcoming a 20-point second-half deficit. Texas trailed 23-3 before mounting three consecutive touchdown drives in the fourth quarter to secure the win at home. Manning finished the game 23-of-37 passing for 195 yards, recording one touchdown and one interception. The win marks a significant recovery for the Texas offense after a previous loss to the same opponent derailed their standing last season. Manning, currently considered a top prospect for the 2027 NFL draft, attributed the performance to a concentrated team effort to finish the game under pressure. Texas moves forward from the win while looking toward the remainder of their schedule.
