8 Texas Longhorns cruised to a dominant 55–0 win over Sam Houston at home on Saturday night. Receiver Ryan Wingo caught four passes for 93 yards and two touchdowns, while Jordan Washington added 33 receiving yards and a score. Fans praised Manning in a confidence-building win, as he slung touchdown passes left and right on Saturday. "Probably mental, to be honest," Manning told reporters on Monday when asked if his struggles were more mental or physical. Manning led the Longhorns to six touchdowns on seven scoring drives, never once having to punt while he was under center.
