Sportsbooks have Arch Manning, quarterback for the Texas Longhorns, at the top of their lists, with Drew Allar close behind

It’s no secret that the player to watch next NCAA season is Arch Manning of the Texas Longhorns. Many may think it’s because he’s related to Peyton and Eli Manning-who together won four Super Bowls and are undoubtedly historic players both in college and in the NFL-but the truth is, he’s a highly talented player in his own right.

Manning has spent two years on the bench for the Longhorns, both times behind Quinn Ewers, who was recently drafted by the Miami Dolphins. Arch has had few opportunities so far. Last year, when Ewers got injured, Manning started two games and showed off his immense talent.

The villain! Tom Brady’s still holding a grudge against Eli Manning

Although Steve Sarkisian, head coach of the Longhorns, has not made it official, there’s no doubt that Arch Manning will be Texas’ starting quarterback. His journey will begin with a major test: facing the reigning champions, Ohio State, in the first regular-season game of the 2025 NCAA season.

Arch Manning is the favorite to be the first pick in the next NFL Draft

The NFL is already eager to have Arch Manning, but the Longhorns quarterback may have other plans. His uncles, Peyton and Eli Manning, had long college careers at Tennessee and Ole Miss, respectively, so Arch may choose to follow in their footsteps and spend more time at Texas.

However, betting houses currently list Arch Manning as the favorite to be selected first overall in 2026, with odds of +200. This means that a $100 bet would yield $200 in profit plus the original amount wagered.

If he is indeed the first overall pick, Arch would continue the legacy of his uncles. Peyton was the first overall pick in 1998 by the Indianapolis Colts, and Eli was the first pick in 2004 by the San Diego Chargers, though he forced a trade to the New York Giants.

The next favorite to go first overall in the 2026 NFL Draft is Penn State quarterback Drew Allar, currently with +250 odds. At one point, Allar was considered a potential candidate for the previous draft, but he decided to return for another NCAA season.

So, if both Arch Manning and Drew Allar declare for the NFL next year, they could very well be the first and second overall picks.

Arsenal suffered against Paris Saint-Germain – but this is a tie that is still alive

“We’re at half-time.”That was Mikel Arteta’s message to his players. They may have suffered a 1-0 defeat in the first leg of their Champions League semi-final against Paris Saint-Germain, but Arsenal’s manager was keen to emphasise that the tie remains very much alive.Given the way the game started and finished, Arteta may be relieved about that. PSG opened the scoring through Ousmane Dembele after just four minutes. It marked the start of a period of dominance for the away side which lasted a quarter of the game. Rarely have Arteta’s Arsenal looked so clearly second best.AdvertisementIf the quarter-final triumph over Real Madrid had a dreamlike quality, this was a game in which Arsenal awoke to the harsh realities of the sharp end of the Champions League.Facing Madrid was a huge psychological test for this team.

Kyle Manzardo’s walk-off homer lifts Guardians over Twins after lengthy rain delay

CLEVELAND — Chris Paddack and the Minnesota Twins pitching staff were very good in a rain-delayed game on Tuesday night. The Cleveland Guardian pitchers were just a little better.Tanner Bibee and two high-leverage relievers shut down a hot Twins offense, and Bo Naylor and Kyle Manzardo each went deep, the latter with a walk-off home run, as the Guardians won 2-1 at Progressive Field. Manzardo’s solo homer off Louie Varland to start the ninth inning snapped the Twins’ four-game winning streak and evened the four-game series.AdvertisementThe teams waited out a 190-minute rain delay during which it only rained for roughly five minutes.“We were playing good baseball,” Twins shortstop Carlos Correa said. “It was a good game. We didn’t come up with a win. Come back (Wednesday) and keep up the same spirits. We’ve been playing great ball for the last […]
