Arch Manning leads No. 8 Texas to a late score and a dramatic 22-21 win over No. 24 LSU

BATON ROUGE, La. (AP) — Arch Manning, following in the footsteps of his grandfather and uncle, delivered a dramatic comeback for No. 8 Texas, securing a 22-21 victory over No. 24 LSU on Saturday night. Manning connected with Raleek Brown for a crucial 4-yard touchdown pass with just 3 seconds remaining, leading his team to a hard-fought win in the state where he was raised and in a stadium where he watched games as a child.

Despite Manning's modest passing statistics — 19-of-35 for 174 yards and one touchdown with three interceptions — he orchestrated the final drive from the 42-yard line, converting three third downs and ultimately scoring the game-winning touchdown. LSU's Sam Leavitt threw for 244 yards and two touchdowns, but was intercepted three times.

The Longhorns, who outgained LSU 366-273, secured the win with three takeaways and three sacks, capping an impressive performance highlighted by their defensive efforts.
