Texas Longhorns PFF Grades, Snap Counts From Dominant Arkansas Win

The Texas Longhorns have set themselves up nicely heading into the last week of the regular season.

After dominating the Arkansas Razorbacks 52-37, the Longhorns still have a chance at making history by becoming the first three-loss team to make the College Football Playoff.

With Texas still alive, here is how the Longhorns graded out against the Razorbacks, according to PFF.

The clear star for the Texas offense was quarterback Arch Manning, but there was a set of unsung heroes throughout the game. Left tackle Trevor Goosby and the Texas offensive line played lights-out against Arkansas, recording their highest team pass blocking grade of the season.

PFF had the Razorbacks clocked at only six pressures, which played a huge role in Manning’s impressive day.
