Texas football, head coach Steve Sarkisian and quarterback Arch Manning visit Mississippi State Saturday in a crucial SEC contest.

It's almost impressive that the Bulldogs managed to lose this game after leading by 10 points with just over four minutes left in regulation. Second-year head coach Jeff Lebby is still winless in SEC play, and this feels like a loss that a team doesn't come back from.

Manning exited Saturday's win over Mississippi State after he hit his head on the ground while diving forward in overtime.

Notre Dame's best-case scenario is a 10-2 finish with ranked wins over USC and likely Navy, as long as the unbeaten Midshipmen handle North Texas this weekend. And, in Texas Tech's case, the Red Raiders need to win out and take the Big 12 to guarantee a spot in the playoff.

For the second consecutive week, the Texas Longhorns took a conference game into overtime, and for the second week in a row, some late heroics led to a big win

Texas kept alive in its quests for Southeastern Conference and national championships with an overtime win over Mississippi State at Davis Wade Stadium.

Arch Manning produced the best game of his young career in a dramatic 45-38 overtime win against Mississippi State, only to leave with an injury that now throws the Longhorns' seas

Matthew Caldwell is expected to become the fourth Texas Longhorn backup quarterback in as many years to step in during the absence of Texas' starter. Hudson Card, Maalik Murphy and Arch Manning stepped in for injured Quinn Ewers over the last three years.

The Texas defense put together their worst performance in recent memory on Saturday, but how concerned should Longhorn fans really be?
