Arch

It's hour number two of The Ben Maller Show, the rare and appropriate college football.

To begin hour number two of The Ben Maller Show on this Tuesday, the 15th day of September, was the rage directed at Texas quarterback Arch Manning for enjoying an AI video warranted? The outrage army is up in arms there, very upset with Arch Manning.

Also, how would you classify Mets owner Steve Cohen telling Pete Alonso, "This is your home," prior to him making his return to Citi Field as an Oriole? And what does this Drew Brees workout with the Broncos tale before the AFC title game tell us? [smacks lips] As it has been confirmed, there was a workout.

Brees contemplated coming back for the Denver football team, and just one win away from the Super Bowl.

Did you hear about this? No? Oh, okay.

The, the, the golden boy of college football, he's no longer in the charm circle.

What happened? Our beloved Arch Manning, he's now a bad guy.

Arch Manning became a bad guy.

We're going to go through the Ole Miss LSU matchup.

We're going to take a look at Arch Manning in Texas.

What did they accomplish in the fourth quarter? Why is Oklahoma struggling on offense so much with John Mateer? We'll take a look at four big road wins across the SEC, their relationship with the Big Ten changing quickly so far.

Nick Saban may be correct about all of this.

I have such a fast...

Like, I am...

What to think of Arch Manning is utterly interesting to me because I think everyone's saying he was underwhelming last year.

Everyone's saying he was bad last year.

Yeah, we need that.

And what did y'all think about, I mean, did Arch kind of get in some hot water? I don't think it's kind of.

I think Arch was just excited.

I think Arch was just excited and just, you know, whatever.

Are you talking after the

game or yesterday when he made the comment?

Uh, we've got Derrick Henry dominating.

We've got Arch Manning apologizing.

Uh, we have got Sydney Sweeney's, uh, continued fallout of her overall, uh, sexiness.

Uh, Dante Moore tipping videos, uh, college football playoff discussion, um, me talking about how the Tesla is amazing, Gavin Newsome fishing.

They've had a lot of tumult at the running back position, and now I believe with Kenneth Walker, they have finally got a solution to their problems.

So the NFL Week One is in the books, and the Chiefs look like they are back to being one of the top contenders for the title yet again.

Uh, okay, um, let's dive into a couple of other stories that are out there, uh, in particular Arch Manning.

I talked about Arch and the fact that he finally won a big game, uh, defeated Ohio State.

We will recap Steve Sarkisian yesterday weighing in on, uh, the mo- mood on the sidelines, down 20 points, 21 points there, or 20 points in the fourth quarter, or late third quarter, and what, uh, the mood was like.

Arch Manning's cool, calm, collected performance with his mates around him.

Uh, all that will still be discussed, but we will start looking forward to week three of college football, week two in the NFL.

We're also gonna give some grades from week one in the National Football League.

It's gonna come with that.

Uh, if you haven't really been paying attention to social media, it's about the post-game interview or non-interview that Sark did or didn't do.

Arch Manning's also got involved with a, you know, comment he made yesterday about a- an AI-generated video surrounding the conversation.

Where are you on this thing? Is it a big deal, not a big deal to you?

We hit you with the real truth coming up at 10 o'clock.

Will Arch Manning be the number one pick in the NFL Draft? Among the topics of conversation there.

Uncle Dom gonna stop by at 10:30.

We will blitz the NFL coming up at 11 o'clock.

Your true jeweler for almost 80 years.

Arch Manning will be the first pick in the 2027 NFL Draft.

Is that the real truth?

Mel, give me a couple of names that you expect by the end of it.

What Arch just did in the second half against Ohio State, and you said it last year, if Arch had come out, he probably goes number one over Mendoza, even with the season Mendoza had.

Are there any names that people aren't talking about right now that you think by the end of the season will kind of be at the top of that list?

First, just a little correction.

He would not have been.

There's no way Arch Manning would have gone ahead of Mendoza.

No.

No, no, no.

Cleveland knows the mission.

Whether it's Arch Manning, whether it's...

And by the way, how great was that win for Texas on Saturday? That was an unbelievable moment for them.

And I was fighting with a caller last night, which is...

I still have a headache over this.

My take is... and I've had this all offseason, the number one overall pick is Arches to lose.

If Arch, who played great in the second half of last year, if he puts together a very strong season, if Texas has a strong year, if they win the national championship or make a deep run in the college football playoff, Arch Manning is going number one overall.

It is his slot to lose.
