The Texas Longhorns are expected to start Arch Manning at quarterback for the SEC opener vs. Mississippi State.
Texas is in line to start the red-shirt freshman Manning for the second consecutive week on Saturday when the Longhorns host the Mississippi State Bulldogs in Austin.Then shortly after before kickoff, the news became officially, with Manning set to get the start and Ewers officially out.
In each of the last two weeks since the injury, Ewers has been listed as questionable, with his status being monitored every practice. However,In relief of Ewers, Manning has been electric at times, recording five touchdowns vs. UTSA, and adding two passing touchdowns vs. Louisiana-Monroe on his way to leading the Horns to 86 total points while under center.
Manning made a handful of bad choices against the Roadrunners, chiefly taking a bad sack and nearly throwing a pick, but got away with both mistakes. Against ULM he wasn't so lucky, throwing two interceptions and making a few other questionable decisions."Learning lessons, right? To think he was going to come out and play a perfect game, I don't think anybody in here thought that," Sarkisian said.
