Because manning was only throwing 37% accuracy. It was quite bad honestly.
Hopefully it was just nerves, but if not...uh oh.
Believe it or not, Texas beat Ohio State in total passing yards AND total rushing yards.
I guess that happened in the second half, because I did not see that in the first half.
Arch Manning completed just under 60% for the game.
Obviously, a below average passing effort, but not terrible against a rock solid Ohio State defense.
Also - Arch Manning was playing with three new starting receivers and four new starting offensive line men.
I was disappointed with Manning, but he definitely deserves another couple games to see how it all evolves.
Facing one of the best defenses in the country in a road game at an extremely difficult place to place might be factors, too.
