Arch Manning’s Preseason All-SEC Snub Sparks Questions: Is Texas’ Star QB Overlooked or Outpaced?
Arch Manning steps into the 2025 college football season under a mountain of scrutiny—not your typical scenario for a first-time starter who isn’t yet draft-eligible. Yet here he is, the presumed No. 1 overall pick in 2027, carrying the heft of Texas football’s hopes on his broad shoulders. It’s fascinating, really—how the hype machine dials him up as a Heisman favorite and a national title contender, while the SEC media, ever the skeptics, slot him modestly behind two other quarterbacks in their preseason All-SEC picks. Does this third-team ranking reflect a hidden diamond in the rough, or are the Texas faithful putting on rose-colored glasses? Either way, the real test arrives quickly as Manning and his Longhorns face off against the defending national champs, Ohio State, in a high-stakes opener that could set the tone for the entire season. Will Arch prove the doubters wrong, or will the pressure crack under its own weight? Time, and that Week 1 clash, will tell. LEARN MORE.
