Ahead of Arch Manning's much-anticipated first start for Texas, Nick Saban offered an assessment of the the highly-touted quarterback's skill set based on what he's seen so far.

On Saturday's episode of College Gameday, Saban assessed three different plays from Manning's appearance against UTSA last week to show where he's already strong and what needs work.

The first two plays—one run, one pass—were very positive for Manning and Texas because they resulted in touchdowns. Saban praised him for going to the over route on the pass play that led to a 19-yard touchdown catch for DeAndre Moore Jr.
