Arch Manning threw two touchdowns and two interceptions in the first half of his first career start Saturday against Louisiana-Monroe. Texas leads 28-3 at halftime behind a defense that allowed the Warhawks to gain 101 yards of offense.

One pressing question for Texas as kickoff approaches against the Louisiana-Monroe Warhawks at 7 p.m. Central on ESPN+ at Darrell K Royal-Texas Memorial Stadium is which running backs will be available to share the backfield with Manning — junior Jaydon Blue missed last week’s win over UTSA with an ankle sprain sustained against Michigan and sophomore Quintrevion Wisner left the UTSA game and did not return with an undisclosed injury.
