Arch Manning’s long-awaited debut on the national stage has quickly turned into a nightmare. In the first half against Ohio State, the Texas quarterback struggled to find any rhythm, making mistakes and missing open throws in what was expected to be a defining moment early in his career.
As the Longhorns trailed heading into halftime, college football fans wasted no time turning to social media to react, and the responses were anything but chill.
