00:00I'd rather have Jackson Arnold than Arch Manning at this point right now

00:03with all the disappointments for the Texas Longhorns.

00:05They're going to take on their rival Oklahoma in the Red River rivalry

00:08at the Cotton Bowl.

00:09And Texas, after losing to Florida last week, still a favorite in this game,

00:13the look-ahead number was 3.5.

00:15That's dropped to 2.5 at just about every outlet

00:17and another really low total of 42.5.

00:20Is this the last stand for Arch Manning and being a starter with Texas?

01:07Seems to be good to go here.

01:09Is he playing?

01:10Is he not playing?

01:11I would wait to find that out before I did anything in this game.

01:15Because if he is playing, this line is changing.

01:18Okay.

01:19So let's go.
