Finebaum: 'Arch Manning ‘not the elite player that we all tried to make him out to be’

“We showed arrogance in believing that Arch Manning can do anything. And he almost did, except he finally got in the way of himself,” Finebaum said Sunday morning on The Matt Barrie Show, referencing Texas’ late charge against Oklahoma.

“And I was really troubled by how he had played up to this point. I came away thinking, I don’t know what this guy’s going to do. Because he is not the elite player that we all tried to make him out to be. He can be great in moments, as we saw near the end of the game, as he threw that great play that set up the touchdown, but he can just be downright stupid in others.”
