Arch Manning, the nephew of Super Bowl-winning quarterbacks Peyton and Eli Manning, is set to take the field as the starting quarterback for the No. 1 ranked Texas Longhorns in the highly anticipated 2 025 college football season opener against No. 3 Ohio State. While the game promises to be a spectacle, former Longhorn running back Bijan Robinson, now a star with the Atlanta Falcons, has expressed confidence that Manning is unburdened by the pressure of expectations. Robinson emphasized that Manning’s upbringing surrounded by NFL success and his family’s legacy has prepared him for moments like this. ‘His family, man, he’s been around it his entire life,’ Robinson told Fox News Digital. ‘So, this moment right here isn’t too big for him.’ This belief is reinforced by Peyton Manning’s earlier comments about coaching Arch to reach this stage in his football journey. As Robinson noted, the challenge lies not in the game itself but in the external scrutiny that often accompanies such an important matchup. For Robinson, the game at Ohio State will also serve as the perfect opportunity to honor his college roots, encouraging fans to wear their school colors in support of their teams on College Colors Day.
