Texas football gets its grades after the win over UTEP, and there are some poor marks on the report card struggles from Arch Manning and the offense.

A win is a win. But Longhorns fans will probably not feel great about how Arch Manning and Texas looked against the UTEP Miners in a 27-10 victory.

Despite the Texas Longhorns 27-10 win over the UTEP Miners, fans were worried about the No. 7 ranked Longhorns and Arch Manning after the team's struggles on Saturday at home.

With struggles by starting quarterback Arch Manning and injuries in the running back room, Texas’ offense struggled to put points on the board.

Arch Manning had two first-half touchdown runs while struggling through another poor passing game in No. 7 Texas' 27-10 victory over UTEP on Saturday.
