“It’s all out of your hands, you’re not campaigning for it, you’re not trying to talk to people about it or prove your point,” Manning exclusively told The Post earlier this month. “If I get in, it will be an awesome, unbelievable few days down in New Orleans, and if I don’t, it’s not going to ruin it for me … just to be included in the top 15 this year is a great honor, so I look at all of this as positive and a fun experience.”
