  "account": "Steve Sarkisian, head coach of the Texas Longhorns, is being urged to abandon his balanced offense in favor of a more pass-heavy attack. The Horns have struggled with their running game, averaging only 3.66 yards per attempt, which ranks 117th nationally. Quarterback Arch Manning, who excels in an up-tempo, fast-paced style, could benefit from more opportunities to throw. Florida Gators' strong passing defense could be exploited with targeted passes to dynamic wideouts Ryan Wingo and Emmett Mosley V. The Gators have given up the league's worst 20-yard passing plays, making the Horns' potential aerial assault a viable strategy against their weak pass rush.",
  "summary": "It's time for Texas football QB Arch Manning to let loose and be a gunslinger back there for the Longhorns, who are riding the struggle bus in the run game.",
