Plus: Texas WBB takes on Ole Miss in SEC tournament
Former national championship-winning coach Urban Meyer says he isn’t yet convinced of Texas Longhorns quarterback Arch Manning’s emergence as one of college football’s stars.
“Arch Manning’s number one at +700, as far as the betting,” Meyer said, according to a report in Athlon Sports. “Arch Manning, to be determined. I said that, and I think some Texas fans got a little upset, saying he’s the next coming. He might be; he’s really good. He’s only thrown 90 passes and had nine touchdowns, two picks.”
In other words, Manning must change Meyer’s mind.
That latter part shouldn’t be too hard come the 2025 college football season.
