Career
Mangum, who began his college football career as a walk-on, is best known for capping Utah"s 2004-2005 season with a 37-yard game-winning field goal as time expired in the 2005 Rose Bowl versus Number. 13 University of Michigan. The tipped kick that went in, allowed Texas to finish its season as one of the top 5 teams in the nation.
Although Mangum was no longer with the Longhorns for their 2005 championship season, his last-second kick foreshadowed the Longhorns second trip to Pasadena, where a sprint by Vince Young into the end-zone in the final minute of play gave Texas back-to-back Rose Bowl wins.
