Watching the highlights of OSU/Texas, the whole 2nd half, Manning had all day to throw over and over and over.  Just chillin' back there for 5-6-7 seconds.  
So yeah, maybe OSU should have brought some heat, but also, just numerous instances of Manning not doing his dropback and throwing on time.  At all.  I think the only time I saw it was on their first TD.  
But other than that, none.

Well nodded off and missed the whole fargin' contest. Evidently the Scarlett & Gray laid an egg by blowing a 20 pt lead. Must have been a fun game to watch if you weren't on the wrong end.Congrats to the Horns,maybe see ya later

Yeah, I unfortunately didn't see most of the comeback as we were in the middle of cooking dinner. 

But up until that point, what I saw was a QB who wasn't seeing the field, was holding the ball too long, and just didn't look comfortable being a QB. 

He wasn't helped by his pass-catchers much. I think the fumble (not his fault), interception (not his fault), and dropped Wingo ball in the end zone (not his fault) may have rattled him. It was only after that where I saw him missing some throws--I wonder if he was trying to force it too much because they were down. And then there were a fair number of other drops I saw where his receivers let him down on good throws. 

But yeah, what I saw was a QB that struggled under pressure and wasn't processing. The kind of QB that can be good to great against weak defenses but gets exposed against a team like OSU--and will have a serious difficulty trying to succeed at the next level where defenses are faster and windows are tighter.

One of the most egregious maddening mistakes a DC can make is going into a quasi-prevent with a lead against a competent foe.

And this is the "why" behind all the criticism.  
What college QB has had more prep for this part of the position than him?  Who's had more tutelage?  Who has had more reps/mental reps?  And THIS is what he struggles with?
