Arch Manning Shines as Texas Prepares for ULM Amid QB Uncertainty

Backup quarterback Arch Manning impressed with five touchdowns after Quinn Ewers' injury, raising questions about the starting role.

Texas Longhorns' quarterback Quinn Ewers is listed as questionable for the upcoming game against Louisiana-Monroe due to an abdominal strain.
Arch Manning, the backup quarterback, delivered a standout performance with 223 passing yards, four touchdowns, and a 67-yard rushing touchdown against UTSA.
Manning's speed topped out at 20.7 mph during his rushing touchdown, faster than Tyreek Hill's top speed this NFL season.
Manning's impressive debut has sparked discussions about a potential quarterback controversy as Texas heads into crucial games against Oklahoma and Georgia.
Despite Manning's success, head coach Steve Sarkisian emphasizes that Ewers remains the starter if healthy, with Manning providing a valuable backup option.
