No. 1 Texas Dominates ULM 51-3 Behind Arch Manning and Jaydon Blue | First SEC Game Up Next

Hello Viewers, Welcome Back to SSN24!

In tonight's sports update, we turn our attention to college football, where the No. 1 Texas Longhorns continue their impressive run. Arch Manning earned his first career win as a starting quarterback, leading Texas to a commanding 51-3 victory over Louisiana-Monroe. Jaydon Blue was the star on the ground, scoring four touchdowns in what became a dominant performance by the Longhorns.

Game Breakdown:

Texas, now holding a 4-0 record, claimed the No. 1 ranking last week for the first time since 2008. Starting in place of the injured Quinn Ewers, Manning took control of the game early on. Blue, fresh off an ankle injury, delivered three of Texas’ first four touchdowns, including two short runs and a pass from Manning. By halftime, the Longhorns led 28-0, with Manning connecting with Ryan Wingo for a second-quarter touchdown.

While Manning showed flashes of his immense potential, throwing for 259 yards and two touchdowns, it wasn’t his cleanest performance. He completed 15 of 29 passes, but two interceptions and some forced throws left room for improvement. Manning himself graded his performance a "C-plus" despite the big win.

On the ground, Jaydon Blue was unstoppable, rushing for 124 yards after sitting out the previous game due to injury. Texas head coach Steve Sarkisian praised Blue, calling him a "weapon" who can hit the edge and gain tough yards between the tackles.

Texas’ Defense Shines:

This victory was not just about the offense. The Texas defense was outstanding, holding ULM to just 3 points and keeping them out of the end zone for the second time this season. The defense has allowed only two touchdowns in four games and forced a crucial interception late in the game to snuff out any Warhawk hope of scoring.

What's Next:

Texas now looks ahead to the challenge of SEC play, as they face Mississippi State at home next week. Coach Sarkisian emphasized that despite the shift to a more competitive schedule, the team doesn’t need to change anything. Texas will look to continue their dominant play and stay atop the rankings.

For Louisiana-Monroe, this lopsided loss doesn't derail their hopes in the Sun Belt Conference. The Warhawks will open conference play against Troy next week, hoping to bounce back after this tough defeat.

That’s all for today’s update. Texas is looking strong heading into SEC competition, and Arch Manning is only getting started. We’ll see how the Longhorns fare as they face tougher opponents in the coming weeks.
