Saban was quite confident Texas This season he is coaching Ewers and Manning and says the Longhorns need both guys.

This goes hand in hand with the Jalen Hurts and Tua situation we had,” Saban said on College Game Day“Jalen was 26-2 as a starter, but we let Tua play as much as possible because we knew there would be a moment where he would have to come in and win the game if Jalen Hurts was unavailable or unable to do so.

“So that’s exactly Texas’ situation, which is very good in the long run because the strength of your team this year is going to have a significant impact in all the games you have to play in the playoffs.”

Hurts was defeated in the national championship against Georgiawith Tagovailoa taking the lead and winning the game. The following year, Tagovailoa was eliminated from the SEC Championship and Hurts led a comeback in the second half.

It’s hard to copy the skills of a quarterback, but when similar situations arise, both Ewers and Manning can lead the Texas team.

Quinn Ewers and Arch Manning provide great momentum in Texas

Former Heisman Trophy winner Tim Tebow sees no controversy at Texas. Ewers is still the man, but Manning will step in until the OG starter is back.

“I think Arch played extremely well, not just good but excellent to elite,” Tebow told On3. “He really did. He did so many things well, whether it was accuracy or poise, decision making, ball placement, athleticism, so many things well, but despite all of that, I don’t think there’s a quarterback controversy.”

“I think Quinn Ewers is one of the best players in the country. I think he has a real shot at the Heisman Trophy, Texas has a real shot at being a playoff contender, if not a champion. Do they have the best quarterbacks in the country? Probably with both of them. Could Arch be an elite quarterback right now? Yeah, probably. But I don’t think there’s any argument there.”
