Arch Manning connected with Raleek Brown for a touchdown with three seconds left, giving No. 6 Texas a 22-21 victory over LSU. The quarterback finished a comeback after throwing three interceptions as Texas fell behind 21-10.

The winning possession covered 58 yards over 12 plays. Manning twice picked up first downs by running before delivering the touchdown pass to Brown.

Manning completed 19 of 35 passes for 174 yards, throwing one touchdown and three interceptions. He was sacked four times and added 35 rushing yards and a touchdown on the ground.

Texas faces Arkansas and Texas A&M over the next two weeks. LSU's defeat ended its playoff contention in Lane Kiffin's first season as coach.

Manning remains in pursuit of a national championship, an achievement that eluded his grandfather Archie and his uncles Peyton and Eli during their college careers.
