Ahead of Week 4 of the college football season, ESPN’s “College GameDay” host Kirk Herbstreit dropped a prediction on Texas Longhorns backup quarterback Arch Manning.
Arch Manning is set to make his first career start on Saturday against the Lousiana-Monroe Warhawks in place of starter Quinn Ewers.
Ewers exited with an injured abdomen in the team’s Week 3, 56-7, victory over the UTSA Roadrunners. Arch Manning replaced him, going on to throw for 223 yards, four touchdowns, and rush for a 67-yard touchdown.
On Saturday’s latest edition of “College GameDay,” Herbstreit predicted Arch Manning would have a great game.
“The internet’s gonna blow up tonight because he is gonna go off,” he said.
Many fans have already called for Arch Manning to be the team’s permanent starter over Ewers. However, Herbstreit shared that Arch Manning’s play won’t have any effect on Texas head coach Steve Sarkisian’s quarterback decision.
