Arch Manning did it all in the Texas Longhorns’ victory over the Arkansas Razorbacks on Saturday evening, 52-37.
Manning had six total touchdowns in the game – four passing along with a rushing and receiving touchdown each. With the stat line, he entered Longhorns football history.
He became the first Texas quarterback with at least one passing, rushing and receiving touchdown in a game. He threw for a career-high 389 yards as he continues to improve at the quarterback position each week.
“Going through the tough games and the struggle, you know, I think you need that as a quarterback,” Manning said. “It’s not easy, but you try to overcome it. … Going through those tough experiences has helped me a lot.”
Manning started the game with a touchdown pass to wide receiver DeAndre Moore Jr. The two hooked up three times during the game. Manning caught his touchdown pass on a reverse from Parker Livingstone. It was a four-yard touchdown.

“It was kind of sunny out and I lost it for a second,” Manning said. “He threw it well (in practice). He’s bailed me out a few times, so I had to bail him out.”
Livingstone had a 54-yard touchdown catch from Manning. He had two catches for 104 yards in the win.
Texas improved to 8-3 on the year and have a crucial matchup against Texas A&M next week.
