AUSTIN, Texas — Texas Longhorns redshirt freshman quarterback Arch Manning will make his first career start on Saturday as the No. 1-ranked Longhorns host the Louisiana-Monroe Warhawks at Darrell K Royal-Texas Memorial Stadium, head coach Steve Sarkisian announced during his Thursday media availability.
The starter, redshirt junior Quinn Ewers, suffered an oblique strain during last Saturday’s home win over UTSA, leaving the game early in the second quarter and will miss the final non-conference game against ULM.
“I feel like Quinn has made great strides ever since Saturday night into where he’s gotten to,” Sarkisian said.
