Overview

  • Through three starts, Manning has 579 passing yards with six touchdowns, three interceptions and a 55.3% completion rate, plus 112 rushing yards and three rushing scores.
  • Todd McShay says Manning is pressing through his progressions too quickly, which is throwing off rhythm and leading to inaccurate passes.
  • Joel Klatt assesses that Manning is getting ahead of the timing of the offense, losing balance and pocket presence and underthrowing targets.
  • ESPN analyst Chase Daniel describes Manning’s footwork and arm angles as out of sync and says he does not believe an injury is causing the issues.
  • Texas is 2-1 and ranked No. 8, and Saturday’s nonconference game against Sam Houston State is framed as a chance to regain rhythm before SEC play.
