Summary
No. 1 Texas moved to 3-0 with a 30-6 win over UTSA, getting two early touchdown passes from Arch Manning before the quarterback faded and exited midway through the fourth quarter after several hard hits.
Manning finished 17 of 33 for 164 yards, missing open receivers after a sharp start and losing his helmet on a violent second-quarter collision.
Cam Coleman caught both touchdown passes, Gianni Spetic added three field goals, and freshman Derrick Cooper scored his first career touchdown as Texas built a 23-6 lead entering the fourth.
Texas' defense set the tone after Rasheem Biles intercepted UTSA on the game's first play, then held the Roadrunners to 143 total yards and no touchdowns.
The Longhorns now head to Knoxville for their SEC opener against No. 15 Tennessee, which improved to 3-0 with a 42-9 win over Kennesaw State.
