Texas Undecided on Arch Manning or Quinn Ewers as QB1 vs. MSU, Steve Sarkisian Says

The starting quarterback for No. 1 Texas is still undecided heading into a matchup with Mississippi State on Saturday.

"We're going to decide on the quarterback thing tomorrow," Longhorns head coach Steve Sarkisian said on Thursday, per ESPN's Dave Wilson. "It won't be a secret. We're not trying to pull the wool over anybody's eyes. Just want to give Quinn every opportunity to see if he's ready to play and what he looks like."

Quinn Ewers opened the season under center, but he missed Texas' 51-3 win over Louisiana-Monroe due to an oblique strain. Arch Manning started in his place, helping the Longhorns remain unbeaten through four games.
