Texas goes from No. 1 to two-game skid and coach says ‘Everything needs to be evaluated’

Two weeks ago, Texas was undefeated and ranked No. 1 in the nation. However, Texas has now lost two consecutive games and faces a challenging playoff outlook. Their star player, quarterback Arch Manning, has struggled with injuries and failed to meet expectations. Head coach Steve Sarkisian acknowledged that everything, including Manning's performance, needs to be evaluated.

Texas has now lost two consecutive games for the first time since 2021, and their defense has faltered against a struggling offense. Despite the setbacks, the team remains determined, with defensive tackle Hero Kanu stating that they still believe in their abilities. Texas hosts Mississippi next Saturday, where they must avoid a third loss to maintain their playoff hopes.
