LWC had touched it 2x and he has 60+ yards and 2 touchdowns. Crazy.

Texas - 62 UTSA - 13

49-7 Horns

Bobby would have made a great lawyer or politician 🤣

I’m a bit baffled by the discussion on the first question. CJ nailed it. Whatever the circumstances (and receiver drops certainly played a MAJOR role), Arch had a pass efficiency rating of 110. That’s really bad. I don’t care that it was against Ohio State—it wasn’t good enough. I don’t think it’s outrageous to give Arch a huge amount of credit for his 4Q performance and leading the comeback while saying that to do so he had to overcome a “C” performance. You can’t just look at how the game ended to assess his overall body of work. Give him a bonus for how he ended it, sure. But to me that boosts him to, say, a 7 or 7.5.

63-13 Texas

I have Arch at an 8.5 - he left some meat on the bone but he was absolutely lights out when you needed him to be against the #1 team in the nation. If they hadn't dropped the ball I think he'd have gone for 300 yards 3 TDS and 0 int but of course crisis precipitated change. Due to the mistakes by his supporting cast he had to be more of a game manager and what we thought may have been a weakness a year ago certainly looked like a strength. Biggest trap game for me is at Tennessee. Texas has been very solid at home. We saw a lapse in a similar position last year at Florida. You cannot underestimate a freshman QB. Texas fans including myself were thinking DJ Lagway (Lagwe)has not looked good and he has a bum ankle. He set Texas on fire. It was a game of bad bounces from the start with Taaffe unable to cover a fumble that he would have 9 times out of 10. Do not take this visit lightly they will have to play disciplined football all day. The biggest red flag for me is ball security. Sark preached about the value of turnover differential all off-season and the importance of taking care of the pill. To come out and turn it over 2 times in the first 5 plays was a major issue. On top of that they fumbled on the goal line prior to the game winning touchdown. Special teams they muffed one. A second issue is punt coverage. They need to ensure they keep a player out on a gunner. Teams saw the all 22 where a gunner was left bare ass on Saturday night for Ohio State where if they had balls like Kirby Smart they would have made Texas pay. As well as Texas played in the second half, and I believe had they converted in the first half on plays they normally will, they would have won the game by 10 plus points but they were also against a very predictable Arthur Smith. Complementary football is going to be crucial for any championship contender and Jeff Banks needs to ensure that there are no fake punt conversions against Texas this season.

I am not worried about OU. LSU and Tennessee worry me.

68 to 0 Texas

Thursday night bump

1. I think a 7 overall. 4th was 10 right. I saw the same missed yards to Mosley as well but Arch didn't get a lot of help from his receivers. 2. OU. I had this as a loss already and now I think this will be their Superbowl. 3. The first half start. Regardless if Raleek had the ball in the inside or out, the blocking got blown up. Cam was wide open and yes he should've caught that ball but it wasn't a TD because he had to dive for it. Arch has to put it in him. The drops were mental. I think the team is playing emotional and not with emotion the first half until Sark calms them down. Why is that? It happens every big game no matter which player causes it. We have to fix that.

Texas 51-13

Maybe im missing it but where is the pickem for the sec slate each week based off point spread?

Topics from this week's Locking Horns: 1. Grade Arch Manning's performance against Ohio State from 1–10 (10 being best). 2. What is the biggest trap game remaining on the Texas schedule? 3. What is the biggest red flag to come out of the win over Ohio State? What is something you saw that you are afraid might bite Texas when they play one of the other top opponents on their schedule?

I love the concept of this show and I hope you guys all enjoy it as well! I will attach the questions we debated this week down below. Make sure to tune in this week as well!

This is an awesome feature and I think y'all need to bring it to the board. I think I agreed with @CJ Vogel on his points on 2 and 3. But I think it would be a great feature to bring to the board to let us chime in.

Yep. I Mizzou … obviously more if MM is actually eligible

72-10 Sark wants to run it up
