"Manning the GOAT": Texas fans go wild after Longhorns ball out UTSA in style with Arch Manning's dominant show

The Texas Longhorns secured a dominant 56-7 victory against the UTSA Roadrunners in week 3. With this victory, Steve Sarkisian's team is on a three-game winning streak as they continue their push to compete for an SEC championship and a playoff berth.

Despite the dominant victory, the Texas Longhorns suffered a blow during the game when QB Quinn Ewers injured himself in the second quarter. He was replaced by backup Arch Manning who put up a brilliant performance in Ewers' place, winning the hearts of the Longhorns fans.

Fans took to social media to share their thoughts and opinions about Arch Manning's performance against UTSA. One fan commented that the young QB is one of the best in college football.

"MANNING IS THE GOAT."

Another fan predicted that Manning will be a serious contender for the Heisman Trophy next year.

"Arch Manning 2025 Heisman winner."

This fan believes that a certain NFL team should already make preparations for drafting Manning in the future.

"There is a lot of time in between now and then but the Steelers should be looking at putting themselves in a position to draft Arch Manning."

One fan wants Steve Sarkisian to provide Arch Manning with more opportunities.

"Not that I want to or wanted to see anyone get hurt but I'm really hoping Arch Manning gets a couple week showcase for UT. Yes I know UTSA but damn."

This fan believes that Manning could go on to become a Super Bow lottery ticket for teams in the NFL.

"Whoever drafts Arch Manning. They'll be winning some Super Bowls."

Before leaving due to his injury, Quinn Ewers put up 185 passing yards and two TD passes while completing 14-of-16 passes he made. Steve Sarkisian announced at halftime that Ewers suffered an abdominal strain.

Texas QB Arch Manning's stats vs UTSA

Arch Manning put up an amazing performance on offense as Quinn Ewers' replacement against the UTSA Roadrunners. After arriving on the field, he threw a 19-yard TD pass to DeAndre Moore Jr. to start his game.

Manning also left fans in awe when he scored a 67-yard rushing touchdown in the second quarter. This was the longest rush by a Texas QB since Vince Young during the 2005 season.
