Arch Manning struggles as Texas offense lacks explosiveness against defenses

Texas quarterback Arch Manning continues to face criticism for his performance as the Longhorns battle through their season. With a completion rate of 61.5%, Manning has not shown significant improvement as expected in his fourth year. Texas, now 3-0 and ranked No. 1, has struggled offensively, scoring just two touchdowns in five red-zone attempts. The Longhorns’ defense, however, is performing strongly, allowing only 12 points per game, ranking 17th nationally. Coach Steve Sarkisian emphasized the need for Manning to play naturally rather than overthink his role. Texas prepares to address both the offensive and defensive challenges as they continue their season.
