Arch Manning Gets Mandate From Steve Sarkisian as Texas Locker Room Put on Notice Against Mississippi State: “Little Discretion”

Texas finally had something to celebrate after back-to-back defeats to Oklahoma and Florida, taking down Ole Miss 34-27. The victory offered Steve Sarkisian and Arch Manning some breathing room, but it hardly erased the concerns surrounding the quarterback. Three turnovers nearly handed the game away, leaving little room for complacency. Now, with Mississippi State waiting, Sarkisian is looking to set his QB straight. Sarkisian likes Arch Manning’s aggressive approach, but the costly turnovers in back-to-back games have raised concerns. Speaking to the media, the Texas coach stressed that his quarterback needs to balance aggression with more conservative decision-making.
