After a deplorable Week 1 performance, the pressure was higher than ever for Texas quarterback Arch Manning to live up to the lofty expectations set before him.
When the Texas Longhorns hosted the San Jose State Spartans in Week 2, ESPN was already placing doubt on Manning, airing an entire segment with the headlines blasting his performance against the Ohio State Buckeyes.
One player later, Manning connected with his go-to wide receiver Parker Livingstone for an 83-yard touchdown, putting the Horns up 7-0 over the Spartans and immediately silencing the doubters who had poured in after last Saturday.
