Is Arch injured? Texas coach Steve Sarkisian has answers to Manning's supposed injury

Is Arch Manning hurt? Is he just a little sore? Or is there nothing to the over-analyzation of three seconds of video from Saturday's Texas vs. San Jose State game. Texas Longhorns coach Steve Sarkisian was asked about it in his weekly press conferences and he put the rumors to rest.

After a throw in UT's 38-7 win, Manning appeared to grimace. Social media started reacting and questioning whether he was hurt. One post in particular when viral, claiming Manning should be forcibly removed from the game by an "adult."

But according to Manning and Sarkisian, there is no issue. In fact, it may have been something everyone has to do a few times a day. When asked about the grimace, Manning just said, "I don't even know."

Sark had more to say about it in his weekly Monday press conference. At first, he really wanted to know where the rumor came from. When the question was being asked about Manning's "throwing pains" Saturday, Sark interrupted and said, "According to who?"

When Sark realized it was just people reacting to a face Manning made, Sark set the record straight. "He doesn't have any (injury)." Sark was then asked why Manning might have made that face, Sarkisian joked, "I don't know. I've never filmed any of you guys when you're using the bathroom, so I don't know what kind of faces you're making."

When you got to go, you go to go.
