Prior to Texas defeating Oklahoma over the weekend to move to 4-2 on the year, an article by The Athletic labeled Arch Manning as college football's "first flop." Though the article did indicate the public could offer Manning more grace, it made clear that as of now, Manning has been a flop.
Through six starts this season in his first year as the Longorns' full-time starting quarterback, Manning has completed 61.08% of his passes for 1,317 yards, 12 touchdowns and five interceptions. He has also rushed for 194 yards and five touchdowns. Along the way, he's made some impressive throws and plays, but has been inconsistent between shaky moments and off-target pass attempts.
