Close-up angle shows Vanderbilt was gifted a free 2 points against Texas

The Texas Longhorns defeated the Vanderbilt Commodores today by a score of 34 to 31 on the heels of Arch Manning's dominant performance. He finished the game with 328 passing yards and 3 touchdowns while completing 75.8% of his passes.

This was undoubtedly his best performance of 2025, and the exact type of game that Longhorn Nation has been waiting to see from him. Despite the majority of the game being a great experience, two key events caused Texas fans to explode.

The first one being the insane unsportsmanlike conduct penalty on Diego Pavia that gave Vanderbilt an extra 15 yards when Pavia clearly held onto Xavier Filsaime and drug him down with him.
