Arch Manning utilized as t-shirt cannon during Texas’s showdown vs. Texas A&M
Published:
Arch Manning is one of the most popular people on the University of Texas campus.
The prized prospect was in attendance at the Moody Center on Saturday as the Longhorns took on the No. 13 Texas A&M Aggies. During halftime, Manning was brought down to the court to help throw t-shirts into the crowd. No t-shirt cannon is needed when you have one of the nation’s top QB talents available.
Manning launched the shirt deep into the lower bowl of seats at Moody Arena. It was an impressive throw from the QB who Texas fans hope has many more impressive throws later this year.
After the Longhorns’ season ended, Quinn Ewers announced his intention to enter the 2025 NFL Draft. Ewers had been the starting QB for the Longhorns so Manning has yet to be the full-time starter in college. Now, entering the 2025 season, Manning should have a firm grasp on the job.
So far with the Longhorns, Manning has appeared in 12 games. The QB has thrown for 969 yards with 9 touchdowns and 2 interceptions so far while rushing for 115 yards and 4 scores on the ground.
The Longhorns’ basketball team, meanwhile, pulled off an insane 2nd half-rally on Saturday to take down the No. 13 Aggies. At the half, the Aggies had a 43-25 lead. In the 2nd half, the Longhorns exploded, outscoring the Aggies 45-26 to escape with a 70-69 win and improving to 3-4 in conference play.
