In a thrilling game watched by Texas Longhorns fans both in the stadium and across the country via a streaming app, excitement filled the air as Arch Manning made his first start for the Horns. Manning's performance delighted fans with his deep ball skills, although he also made a few errors typical of a newcomer.

Moreover, the evening was marked by the induction of three legends, Colt McCoy, Alex Okafor, and Marquise Goodwin, into the Texas Athletics Hall of Honor, adding a touch of prestige to an already memorable night for Longhorns supporters.

As fans eagerly anticipated Manning's first career start, the atmosphere at the stadium was electrifying, with cheers and applause filling the air. Manning, displaying glimpses of his impressive talent, captured the crowd's attention with some remarkable plays, hinting at a promising future ahead as he hones his skills and gains more experience. Although faced with a few challenges during the game, Manning's resilience and potential were on full display, earning him respect from both fans and critics alike.
