Manning won the Citrus Bowl MVP 28 years after his uncle Peyton Manning accomplished the same feat at Tennessee.

With Manning already making it known that he’ll return to Austin next season, he’s set to lose one of his closest teammates and more reliable targets in freshman wide receiver Parker Livingstone, who is entering the NCAA transfer portal when it opens on Friday.

Texas Longhorns quarterback Arch Manning was hit with devastating transfer portal news after the team’s bowl game. After a whirlwind of a regular season, Texas Longhorns quarterback Arch Manning was able to end the year with a huge performance in the team’s 41-27 win over the Michigan Wolverines in the Citrus Bowl on Wednesday.

Texas quarterback finishes season strong, caps first year as starter with four-touchdown performance in Citrus Bowl.

Coleman, who could be a first-round pick in the 2027 NFL Draft, is the star WR Manning clearly needs. He ranks 16th in the SEC in receiving yards (708) and is tied for 15th in touchdown catches (five). Note that he produced despite playing for one of the more dysfunctional programs in the conference.

Arch Manning led the Texas Longhorns to a 9-3 record in his first regular season as the starter. He went on to throw for 2,942 yards, 24 touchdowns and seven interceptions. Manning also added 83 carries for 244 yards and eight touchdowns on the ground.
