Manning throws 2 early TD passes to Coleman to help No. 1 Texas beat UTSA 30-6 | National Sports

AUSTIN, Texas (AP) — Arch Manning threw two early touchdown passes to Cam Coleman on a night he mostly struggled, and No. 1 Texas beat UTSA 30-6 in the Longhorns’ last game before starting their Southeastern Conference schedule.

Texas (3-0) vaulted to No. 1 after its thrilling 24-23 victory over Ohio State last week when Manning led a 21-point rally in the fourth quarter.
