Arch Manning High School Stats: A look at the Texas QB's high school stats as he prepares to start against Louisiana-Monroe in Week 4

Arch Manning, grandson of NFL legend Archie Manning and son of Cooper Manning, is gearing up to start for the Texas Longhorns against Louisiana-Monroe in Week 4. Manning attended Isidore Newman School in New Orleans before joining Texas.

Manning, who started as a varsity quarterback in his freshman year in 2019, recorded 2,509 yards and 34 touchdowns and earned MaxPreps National Freshman of the Year honors. In his senior year, he scored 37 touchdowns, 34 during the regular season and three in the playoffs.

In four years at Isidore Newman, Manning tallied 137 touchdowns. Manning kicked off the sophomore year with six TDs against East Jefferson. However, his high school term ended after the semifinal defeat vs Lafayette Christian Academy.

In high school, Arch Manning completed 64.5% of his passes for 8,539 yards, 115 touchdowns and 19 interceptions in 42 games. He rushed for 748 yards and 19 TDs.

Arch Manning set for first collegiate start against Louisiana-Monroe

On Thursday, Texas coach Steve Sarkisian said that redshirt freshman quarterback Arch Manning will get his first college career start against Louisiana-Monroe on Saturday. Manning will play instead of junior quarterback Quinn Ewers, who suffered an oblique strain against UTSA last week.

“Getting him [Quinn Ewers] possibly one more week healthier for the long term, I think, (will be) good for us,” Sarkisian said.

In Texas' season opener against Colorado State, Manning completed 5-of-6 passes for 95 yards and a touchdown. He received praise from Sarkisian after his impressive outing.

“Arch (Manning) is more than capable, as I think we all know,” Sarkisian said. “He’s got a lot of confidence from his teammates.”

Texas, now ranked No. 1 in the latest AP Poll for the first time since 2008, is a 44.5-point favorite against Louisiana-Monroe. The kickoff is scheduled for 8 p.m. ET on Saturday at Darrell K Royal-Texas Memorial Stadium.
