ESPN college football analyst Paul Finebaum can’t get enough of the Texas Longhorns and incoming starting quarterback Arch Manning. That much is clear, according to a recent report in On3. But will Texas clinch a College Football Playoff championship with Manning?
“Absolutely,” Finabaum said during an appearance on Get Up earlier this week. “They have Arch Manning, in case you have not gotten that email from the front office. He is expected to be much better than Quinn Ewers. I was not that impressed with Quinn Ewers last year. I think Arch Manning, had he come in during the Cotton Bowl, may have had a better shot, may have even beaten Ohio State.”
Finebaum added, ““He is going to be the leader of this team. They reloaded in the portal, to the tune of many millions and millions of dollars. I think Texas, other than having to go to Ohio State Week 1, is in great shape.”
