AUSTIN, Texas -- Texas ascended to No. 1 this week and Arch Manning captured the nation's attention with a four-touchdown performance following an injury to Quinn Ewers. But Steve Sarkisian said on Monday that none of the hype or attention changes anything for the Longhorns.

Manning threw for 223 yards and four touchdowns and added a 67-yard rushing score in a 56-7 win over UTSA after Ewers exited in the second quarter because of an oblique strain. Sarkisian said Ewers is listed as questionable this week and will be monitored day to day, but that Manning and freshman Trey Owens would get more practice reps this week to prepare.
