(Gerald Goodridge) No. 13 Texas 41, No. 18 Michigan 27: Three things we learned

The No. 13 Texas Longhorns took a while to get rolling, but a close game turned into a comfortable win after a huge fourth quarter from the defense, including two fourth quarter interceptions of Michigan quarterback Bryce Underwood. Texas managed to put the offense into gear in the fourth quarter, mostly thanks to the efforts of the other star quarterback in the game, Texas’s Arch Manning.

Arch Manning has all the tools he needs to be successful

It’s hard to call this a coming out party for a player that is already a household name, but the former No. 1 player in the country truly looked up to the billing against Michigan and put up what could be the jumping off point for a stellar junior year. His 376-yard performance was capped off by Texas’s two longest offensive plays of the game, a 30-yard bomb to Kaliq Lockett and a 60-yard designed run coming off of an Underwood turnover, extending the lead to two scores.

Manning accounted for six of the Longhorns’ runs longer than 10 yards and 130 of his 221 passing yards came on passes longer than 15 plays. He still needs to grow on completing deep balls, connecting on just 3-7 passes longer than 15 yards, but his wide receivers did him little help in that regard.

The offense needs help at the skill positions

Just one credited drop, but anyone watching the game saw the ball careen off of wide receivers’ hands on multiple catchable balls. Parker Livingstone and Ryan Wingo, who left the game early due to injury, both had multiple drops in crucial moments, while while up-and-comers like Daylan McCutcheon saw good passes bounce off of their hands and land on the turf. Kaliq Lockett hauled in the first touchdown of his career off of a dime from a hobbled Manning, but Texas still needs a lot of help.

With both RB1 and RB2 out, Christian Clark did well carrying the ball for Texas, averaging 5.3 yarder per carry on the way to his first 100-yard game. After Clark, though, Michael Terry, III came off of the bench and chipped in just 1 carry for no gain, leaving Manning to be the other running back for the offense.

The special teams unit needs to improve next year

Jeff Banks’s unit was abhorrent in the game, setting up the Michigan offense in positive field position multiple times, especially after the Longhorns scored a touchdown — exposing how much Texas benefits when a kicker can put the ball deep in the end zone. Andrew Marsh averaged 36 yards per return, a clip that included a 51-yard return in the third quarter that put Michigan deep in Texas territory late in the third quarter. Thankfully, Wardell Mack picked off Bryce Underwood in the end zone to end the threat.

Add to that a block in the back penalty on a punt return that backed Texas into its own territory in the second quarter, the Longhorns’ special teams unit once again had a mental lapse that cost the offense.

Alex Valdes: Arch Manning puts on dual-threat show in Texas’ Citrus Bowl win over Michigan

Arch Manning capped off 2025 with his best dual-threat game of the season. The redshirt sophomore quarterback threw for two touchdowns and ran for two others — one of them by outracing the entire defense for 60 yards — to lead No. 13 Texas past No. 18 Michigan 41-27 in the Citrus Bowl on New Year’s Eve at Camping World Stadium in Orlando, Fla. Manning, the nephew of Super Bowl champion quarterbacks Peyton and Eli, had nine carries for 155 yards and was 21-for-34 for 221 passing yards, earning him the Citrus Bowl MVP. He finished the season with a 10-3 record as the starting QB.

Arch thus follows in the footsteps of Uncle Peyton, who 30 years ago led Tennessee past Ohio State 20-14 in the Citrus Bowl on New Year’s Day 1996. Peyton also led the Vols past Northwestern 48-28 in the 1997 Citrus Bowl and was named MVP. “Nothing against the Citrus Bowl,” Arch Manning said Wednesday. “I don’t want to have to play in it twice.” With Michigan leading 27-24 in the fourth quarter, Manning engineered a nine-play, 75-yard drive that culminated with Manning’s 30-yard touchdown strike to Kaliq Lockett with less than seven minutes left.

On the next Texas possession, Manning faked a handoff, burst through a gaping hole in the line and outraced everyone to the end zone for a 60-yard touchdown that gave Texas an 11-point lead with 5:05 left in the game.

Manning’s bowl game performance came four months after a shaky start to his season, a 14-7 loss at Ohio State in the season opener in which he completed 17 of 30 passes for only 170 yards, with a touchdown and an interception. Five weeks later, he threw two picks in a 29-21 defeat at Florida. But since those early struggles, Manning threw 15 touchdown passes and only two interceptions in winning seven of eight games. During the regular season, he passed for 2,942 yards and 24 touchdowns against seven interceptions.

Manning has said he’s returning to Texas for his junior season in 2026. Two items on next season’s agenda will be first and foremost in Austin — qualifying for the CFP and getting Manning into the Heisman Trophy running. “We have to attack this off-season, getting these new guys, whether it’s the high school guys or portal guys and keep our guys, attack winter workouts and continue to be better leaders and get this thing going,” Manning said. “The standard is the standard at Texas. Got to keep it going and have a good 2026.”

(Austin Meek) Texas-Michigan Citrus Bowl takeaways: Arch Manning runs wild, Bryce Underwood throws 3 picks

ORLANDO, Fla. — Texas beat Michigan 41-27 in a Citrus Bowl matchup between teams trying to set the table for 2026. Texas quarterback Arch Manning capped his late-season surge by completing 21 of 34 passes for 221 yards and rushing for 155 yards and two touchdowns. After a rough start to the season, Manning led the No. 13 Longhorns (10-3) to seven wins in their final eight games, capped by the bowl victory.

With new Wolverines coach Kyle Whittingham looking on, Michigan quarterback Bryce Underwood went 23 of 42 for 199 yards with two touchdowns and three interceptions. Michigan (9-4) hired Whittingham on Friday to replace Sherrone Moore, who was fired Dec. 10 for engaging in an inappropriate relationship with a staff member and arrested following an incident later that day. Biff Poggi was Michigan’s interim coach in the bowl game. Here are our takeaways.

Manning wins the QB duel

Much of the pregame build-up was about the quarterbacks. After dueling for three quarters, Underwood and Manning went in drastically different directions in the fourth quarter. Manning made his best plays late in the game, including a 60-yard touchdown run and a 30-yard touchdown pass that he floated perfectly over the shoulder of receiver Kaliq Lockett. Manning didn’t have a huge day throwing the ball, but his ability to scramble was the difference in the game. “Arch is an exceptional player,” Poggi said. “He made some throws today that I thought were, like, ‘Wow.’ When you look at him on the field, he’s big and strong, but I had no idea he was as athletic as he is. He’s a force to be reckoned with.”

Underwood hit some big throws, including a toe-dragging touchdown to Kendrick Bell and another to Andrew Marsh. He also showed his running ability with 77 yards and a go-ahead touchdown in the fourth quarter. But the interceptions doomed Michigan’s chances in the fourth quarter and turned a compelling game into a Texas romp. “I thought he had a great game,” Poggi said. “He just made a few bad decisions at the end. He’ll learn. All these things are learning things for him.”

Michigan hung tough… until the fourth quarter

Following their loss to Ohio State to end the regular season, the Wolverines endured a tumultuous month that included Moore’s firing, his arrest on charges of third-degree home invasion, stalking and breaking and entering, and revelations of behind-the-scenes turmoil. They were shorthanded in the Citrus Bowl with running back Jordan Marshall, left guard Giovanni El-Hadi and edge rushers Derrick Moore and Jaishawn Barham among those who didn’t play.

None of that seemed to sap Michigan’s motivation. The Wolverines gave Underwood the green light to make plays with his arm and his legs, and he responded by throwing for two touchdowns and running for another. Underwood’s stretch for the pylon with 10:56 remaining in the fourth quarter gave Michigan a 27-24 lead, but the Wolverines fell apart from there. Underwood threw interceptions to end back-to-back drives in the fourth quarter, and Manning’s 60-yard touchdown run sealed the win for Texas.

“I thought Michigan, to their credit, had a bunch of fight in them today, too,” Texas coach Steve Sarkisian said. “I think they only had three opt-outs, and that is a credit to their coaching staff and to Biff and that organization for keeping that team together through some of their adversity, too. I credit them. They showed up ready to play today.”

These teams should be in the CFP conversation next year

Manning, a redshirt sophomore, has already said he intends to return to Texas next season. Underwood met with Whittingham this week and has indicated he’ll assess his future after the season. Underwood’s bowl performance showed the good and bad of his freshman season, with a mix of impressive throws, tough runs and questionable decisions that turned into interceptions. Regardless of who’s playing quarterback for Michigan next season — Underwood as a second-year starter, or a player Michigan signs from the transfer portal — the Wolverines should have the talent to make a run at the CFP. Texas should, too.

Michigan had solid defenses the past two seasons under defensive coordinator Wink Martindale, who is not expected to return as part of Whittingham’s staff. But the Wolverines weren’t good enough in big moments, and those struggles surfaced again in the Citrus Bowl as Michigan’s shorthanded defense ran out of gas in the fourth quarter. Texas will also have a new defensive coordinator after firing Pete Kwiatkowski and replacing him with Will Muschamp earlier in December.

“I am thankful that I got the opportunity to coach them this season, but also gives me a lot of hope into what 2026 is going to look like, because we have a really good football team,” Sarkisian said. “We have some more players that are going to join these guys that are going to be poised for a heck of a journey next year.”

(Ian Boyd) Five quick thoughts: Arch Manning out-duels Bryce Underwood

Texas headed into this game knowing it was going to take a big day from Arch Manning to win and wanted a big game to jump start his 2026 campaign. Evidently Michigan wanted the same thing with Bryce Underwood. As a result we got a great back and forth between the two teams that ultimately ended the only way a duel between Underwood and Manning could…with a Texas victory. It was a pretty wild game with Texas and Michigan combining as nearly equal partners on 21 penalties for 199 yards. Michigan had a major special teams edge with a turnover on a Ryan Niblett kick return and several terrific returns by their own ace return man Andrew Marsh. At times it felt like we were re-watching the 2005 Rose Bowl between Texas and Michigan in which the Wolverines started every position at midfield after a great Steve Breaston return.

Much like in that game, Michigan was unprepared for the 6-foot-4, fleet of foot quarterback on the other side of the field and got torched by scramble after scramble while Underwood committed crucial mistakes. Eventually Manning iced the game with a 60-yard zone-read keeper and that was basically it. The Longhorns pulled away for the 41-27 win.

Quick thought no. 1: Arch Manning woke up feeling the cheesiest

Perhaps the biggest factor in this game was Michigan’s reliance on man coverage on several passing downs, which paired very poorly with undisciplined rush-lanes and big D-tackles. Even before the 60-yard touchdown scamper Manning had 95 yards on just eight carries with the vast majority of it coming on scrambles where he went upfield on 2-man coverage by the Wolverines for crucial conversions.

He finished the day going 21-34 for 221 yards at 6.5 ypa with two touchdowns and zero interceptions (or any other turnovers). Then he added nine carries for 155 yards at 17.2 ypc with two rushing touchdowns. Manning also converted two 3rd-and-10 situations with explosive passes and had a pair of long scramble conversions on 4th downs.

Not only did he do all of this to deliver a 10th win to the Longhorns, but he did so with top receivers Ryan Wingo and Emmett Mosley (fifth of that name) sitting out for most of the second half after incurring injuries on the field. No matter, Manning delivered a dime to freshman Kaliq Lockett running a fade on an RPO for a 30-yard score moments after delivering on 4th-and-2 with a 15-yard scramble against a jailhouse blitz by the Wolverines.

That performance will be one for the ages and likely generate endless offseason content and highlights in anticipation of the 2026 campaign. Who said these bowl games are meaningless?

Quick thought no. 2: Texas out-rushes Michigan!

The fear going into this game was that TyAnthony Smith would be overmatched asked to lead the Longhorn run defense against an imposing, run-centric Michigan offense. Meanwhile the Texas running back room was a sort of curiosity. “I wonder how Michael Terry will look on the three carries he gets in between Manning passes?” Smith ended up making nine tackles and two interceptions to go with a tackle for loss and quarterback hurry. Meanwhile Christian Clark carried the load in between Manning’s heroic moments with a shockingly workmanlike 20 carries for 105 yards at 5.3 ypc with a touchdown. Those yards came steadily too, not on a single breakaway run but several successful darts over the course of the game. Perhaps some additional time to get over the achilles injury and receive more intensive coaching was all he needed.

Thanks in no small part to Manning’s explosive day, Texas ended up out-rushing Michigan 236-179. The Longhorns did have struggles throughout the game controlling Michigan’s ground attack and were punished with the Wolverines converted five of six fourth downs. That was all negated however by the turnovers forced and Texas’ own success running the ball. We can always wonder how things might have gone if Michigan had brought their full complement in the run game or emphasized the run rather than the Underwood passing game. The Longhorns played the Michigan runs pretty well though, with a big exception for the zone-read, and their own ability to run the ball and score would likely have forced Michigan to throw a fair amount either way.

Quick thought no. 3: Was the future on display?

Texas is certain at this point to add a running back in the transfer portal to be a major component in the offense. However, it may only need to be one. Clark set the tone early in this game with a huge third down pass block on a blitzing linebacker which was followed up with several successful runs.

His feel in the run game was considerably improved from what we saw earlier in the season and he played a fairly complete overall game. It’s just one game but there may be good reason to believe he could at least be one of two rotational running backs for an offense trying to win the National Championship.

Smith is another young player that figures to be a major fixture in Texas’ plans for the 2026 season who showed out as well as could be hoped. This interception caught my eye for a couple of reasons.

Whenever you see linebackers mugging up to the line in a modern game, it usually means they’re dropping out late while the real pressure comes from elsewhere. Sure enough, Smith and Jonathan Cunningham both dropped out to wall up the seams while nickel Graceson Littleton came off the edge as a fifth pass-rusher. Michigan knew the score and picked up the pressure pretty well, but Smith made an outstanding drop to pick that throw off. He was also dropping as part of a trap-2 blitz, which is a concept very well liked by incoming defensive coordinator Will Muschamp.

Quick thought no. 4: Some sloppiness

There was some sloppiness in this game that was mostly forgivable and didn’t submarine Texas’ chances in this game. The penalties were early and often, some were moments of exuberance on defensive interception returns and others were related to an O-line struggling to block a talented defensive front. What was less solid in this game was the special teams and the zone-read defense. At times it seemed an Underwood zone-read call was an automatic first down whenever the Wolverines dialed it up. Texas did well to avoid any explosive gains but the consistent successes prolonged the game into the fourth quarter.

Michigan had several great kickoff returns which they appeared to block up in a variety of different ways. Their own coverage was also terrific and included a forced fumble on a Niblett return that did a lot of work for Michigan early in giving them an extra possession. It wasn’t until the second Underwood interception that this advantage was finally squandered. Finally, there was a terrible sequence in which the ball was snapped while Manning was trying to get a call from the sideline that took Texas out of field goal range and looked potentially disastrous before he caped up in the fourth quarter. Chalk up much of it to lack of urgency for a bowl game, widespread opt-outs, and time off. Overall, this was an impressive effort despite the ugly moments.

Quick thought no. 5: Into the 2026 offseason

There is an awful lot ahead for Texas over the next month. The transfer portal will open officially this week and there’s a definite expectation that several future Texas starters will be using it to arrive at their new destination. This game cemented for many that the Longhorns have a ways to go at receiver in order to ensure Manning has the supporting cast he needs to guide a title-winning offensive unit. It also revealed how potent this offense could be with nationally elite game changers out wide on the perimeter. We already know the offensive line is going to be remade.

The bones of this team show a ton of talent on the defensive line and loads of defensive backs who were very willing to mix it up today and play from two-deep coverages (another interesting quirk to this game, the amount of quarters Texas ran). Then there’s the quarterback, who’s going to make a lot of things easier. The infrastructure of the team appears to be strong enough to provide a foundation, now we’ll see whether Steve Sarkisian can paint his Sistine Chapel in the portal.

Kirk Bohls: Arch Manning saves best for last as Texas tops Michigan in Citrus Bowl

ORLANDO, Fla. — OK, so it took him a while. Arch Manning was better late than never, and few have been better lately than the Texas quarterback celebrity who resounded with a fury with a final-game statement and showcased his special skills after sputtering in September and being labeled as the game’s biggest flop by a national website. Make that a national flip because he sure switched up the narrative. Can we get a Heisman re-vote? Obviously not. But the redshirt sophomore emphatically silenced his critics and doubters and put on a tremendous display in Texas’ dramatic 41-27 win over No. 18 Michigan on Wednesday afternoon in the Cheez-It Citrus Bowl.

In doing so, the third-year quarterback reminded the 47,316 at Camping World Stadium and a nation that he truly is one of the best players in college football and would be even if his name was Arch McGillicuddy. He’s not a star in name only. He’s been the real deal since Halloween, and that should scare the daylights out of the SEC for 2026 if he continues with the kind of four-touchdown performance he showed in probably the best bowl game that wasn’t a College Football Playoff game.

It was certainly CFP-caliber as No. 13 Texas — the third team left out behind Notre Dame and BYU — reminded the selection committee that snubbed it that the Longhorns probably are one of the best dozen teams in America. They played one of their best games of the season after beating three top-10 teams and playing five to finish 10-3 with their seventh win in the past eight games. It was their third consecutive season with double-digit wins, a first since Mack Brown rattled off nine of them in a row. “This gives me a lot of hope for what 2026 is going to look like,” Texas coach Steve Sarkisian said. “We’ve got a really good football team, and this is a great way to end our season.”

Heck, Manning’s probably sorry to see it come to an end because he’s been on a roll since the loss to Florida. He completed 21 of 34 passes for 221 yards and ran for another 155 and didn’t have a turnover. Who can say if Arch will open next season as the prohibitive favorite to win college football’s biggest award? It’s hard to imagine he won’t be after lighting up the Wolverines with four touchdowns, including a perfect, 30-yard strike to freshman Kaliq Lockett for his first career score to give Texas the lead for good and a 60-yard touchdown burst up the middle on a zone read to put the game way. He also had a 17-yard touchdown pass to tight end Jack Endries, who also might return next season.

And Texas needed every last heroic play from its famous leader because it found itself embroiled in the tightest of duels that Michigan actually led 27-24 with less than 11 minutes in the game. Bryce Underwood looked sharp for the Wolverines with tough runs and solid passing, accounting for three touchdowns of his own but throwing three second-half interceptions. But after Underwood’s diving, 5-yard touchdown run, Manning took over for good. Over the next five-plus minutes, he completed three of six passes for 46 yards and a touchdown and ran three times for 83 yards, including that second-longest run of his career on a dead sprint where he was clocked at 21.7 mph. He’s obviously going places fast.

“He’s an exceptional player,” interim Michigan coach Biff Poggi said. “He made some throws today that were like wow. I had no idea. He’s big and strong, but I had no idea he’s as athletic as he is. He’s a force to be reckoned with.” You reckon? And to think Manning pulled off this magic without a roster at full strength. Who knows how he would have done with a complete contingent of weapons. Texas was playing without nine starters and 20 total players who either declared for the NFL draft or entered the transfer portal. That included wideout DeAndre Moore Jr., who announced he is transferring and sat out the bowl game.

Even worse, starting wide receivers Ryan Wingo and Emmett Mosley V both left the game with injuries, depriving Texas of three of its best four receivers. Mosley was taken to the locker room in the second quarter with an undisclosed injury and didn’t return. Wingo, Manning’s top target all season, limped off with a turf toe injury after one offensive snap in the third quarter after those two combined for nine receptions and 115 yards. Their absence allowed for breakout performances from future stars like running back Christian Clark, who ran hard 20 times for 105 yards to give Texas a double threat with Manning carrying nine times for those career-best 155 yards.

So, too, did others excel. Linebacker Ty’Anthony Smith, who figures to be a big playmaker next fall, stepped up with the departures of Anthony Hill Jr. and Liona Lefauu and had two critical interceptions and a team-high nine tackles. Without end Ethan Burke and linebacker Trey Moore suited up, freshman linebacker Bo Barnes came up with a sack. Safety Jelani McDonald was just knocking the snot out of Wolverines. Freshman receivers Daylan McCutcheon and Lockett combined for three catches for 39 yards.

For Arch, this was nothing new of late. He was calm in the pocket. He made his reads. He rarely put the ball in harm’s way. He led. Over the last six games of the season, Manning threw 14 touchdown passes with two interceptions and beat No. 3 Texas A&M to spoil its perfect season and finish the year with a whopping 10 rushing touchdowns. In short, he has blossomed into one of the most complete quarterbacks in the game, and he’s the Longhorns' for another season. This was the Arch Manning that Longhorn Nation envisioned. And probably the Arch Manning everyone else feared.

“This was a cool way to cap it off the way we did,” Manning said. He was even reminded that he earned bragging rights on his Hall of Fame uncle Peyton Manning, who played with the Tennessee Volunteers here but never had even one touchdown run. “Nothing against the Citrus Bowl, but I think he played in it twice,” he said modestly, thinking ahead to next season. “I don’t want to have to play in it twice.” He has visions of playing elsewhere, say the CFP.

(RT Young) The Reheat: 2025 ends with Good Vibes and Great Arch at the Citrus Bowl

The year 2025 ended the way it started, with a Texas victory. The 41–27 victory over Michigan in the Cheez-It Citrus Bowl was the exact kind of table setter Steve Sarkisian needed going into next year. A victory which was full of good vibes, and great Arch Manning. There will be plenty of comparisons made to Vince Young’s own performance against Michigan in the 2005 Rose Bowl, the game that paved the way to the Longhorns’ last national title. And though the games were much different in stakes, there are some similarities. There’s the opponent and the mind boggling stat lines, to be sure. But, its mainly in how the fanbases felt in watching #16 compared to #10. The familiar feelings of dread from Wolverine fans as it set in there was nothing their team could do to stop a Texas quarterback, while Longhorn fans felt like they couldn’t lose with Him at the helm.

We anoint too early in sports; it happens constantly. My San Antonio Spurs are fighting off the symptoms of a premature anointment right now. Everyone this past offseason was too eager to crown Arch Manning and Texas. Maybe now is the time. And even though it was only a crown of Cheez-Its on Manning’s head in Orlando, perhaps it’s a sign of things to come.

Fire The Cannon for: Texas was facing a 4th and 2 and trailing halfway through the fourth quarter yesterday when Arch Manning picked up the biggest conversion of his career. It didn’t matter that he became bloodied and bruised in the process; he was determined to win. Arch’s fourth quarter reminded me of a wily veteran toying with a bunch of kids. On that play, Manning waited for the pressure, felt it before shrugging it off, and put the game on his back. The touchdown pass to Kaliq Lockett followed, as did his 60-yard touchdown run.

Horns Up on Offense for: Christian Clark, with a 100-yard performance that showed Texas fans why some of those mini-Bijan comparisons were appropriate.

Horns Up on Defense for: Ty’Anthony Smith, with 86 out of 86 snaps played and two clutch interceptions. I can’t wait to see what the Jasper LB is like in 2026.

Sarkometer (Grading Steve Sarkisian): Sark did a great job with what he was given. He had a hollowed-out coaching staff and a team plagued by opt-outs and transfers, yet he didn’t overcomplicate the game and had his team ready to play.

Sidenote: My brother-in-law and I got (or tried) to explain “opt-outs” to my nine year old nephew and six year old son yesterday when they started asking where players X, Y or Z were. That didn’t go well.

Bevo’s Bucket for: What’s the point of having reviews? The first Michigan TD shouldn’t have been indisputable. The Christian Clark first-down run after the Wardell Mack pick was obvious, yet not overturned. Then the Bryce Underwood touchdown, which should have been a fumble, wasn’t reversed. What a disaster of a day for the officials.

Schadenfreude of the Week: See Buckeyes, Ohio State. I wish I could have been a part of whatever celebration Michael Irvin was at last night. Also, Texas is now 3-0 against Michigan all time.

This Piping Hot Take Burned the Roof of My Mouth: No hot takes this week, just a moment of pride for another Longhorn quarterback besides Arch Manning. Many transfers feel so shortsighted. You realize how players are getting advised to trade in a 50-year decision for a short-term gain. To Quinn Ewers, I say in a crying Terrell Owens voice, “that’s my quarterback.”

Hype Train Level: As Arch said, 2026 is going to be special.
