Arch doesn’t like the TE. It was open all day. One read. Bad throw

I don't get the quasi meltdown. Arch's problems weren't that bad. Look at Bama's Simpson.

Wake me up when sec play starts. Hearing more hype train as Simmons gets three sacks on san Jose state doesn't excite me until they can win big games as well.

less interviews and commercials and more hitting receivers in the hands not the feet

I think Arch was just gripping the ball too tight and I don’t blame him. I don’t care what you say- there’s no way he doesn’t feel additional pressure this game and season. He’ll loosen up and hit the easy throws which will open everything else up. remember- we had no tape in their offense or defense and going against my Pats Matt Patricia and some crazy great defense and schemes. It will get better. has to get better

Anything to the rumor floating that Arch is dealing with a shoulder injury?

I haven’t moved in my bed in 3 hours. I’m actually depressed

He’s going to get to play eventually. But he will be mad if they don’t release him. My wife will be mad (well, more upset) if they do release him because she doesn’t want him to play. At all. She’s extremely nervous over it. Even last night at the game it was bothering her and he wasn’t dressed out. she has very high anxieties about him returning to the football field. He caught an infection at church camp in July that hospitalized him for a couple of days. Due to said infection, they had concerns about his spleen due to his major accident last November. He’s had a “no contact” label on him since then. He’s can run, he can lift, he can do drills but he can’t be hit. If he isnt released Tuesday, he will most likely (95% chance I’d say) be released the following week. Judging by the defensive backfield I saw yesterday at the game, they will want him on the field pretty quickly.

I’m there with play calling - the call today today was putrid.

Yep he’s what we need. Unfortunately he’s a high school senior right now and we still can’t score inside the five.

Hoping this plays out like Jalen Milroe a few years back… let down against Texas, brutal and replaced against USF…. goes on to finish 6th in Heisman voting. Defense is elite. Talent is there on offense. Can’t miss 5-8 yard throws. Missed reads on back to back goal to go plays… whole season infront of them, last 2 years give me faith they will have a shot in December. Hook’em and beat SJSU

I don’t think the run game was as good at the box score suggests. Patricia was fine with letting Texas get good runs when the field was big, but Texas simply didn’t run the ball when it counted. (3 & 4th and short, goal line)

There is a reason Sark wants D. Cooper so bad.

Sark sucks as a play caller. He needs to give it up and worry about running a program.

Spencer Shannon #83 bare ass. Brutal QB play.

It's Quinn all over again. Not stepping into throws. Relying too much on arm talent.

Now why we see why Quinn was our starter last year. Sark is an idiot inside the 10 yard line. He needs to give play calling duties.

When you can’t complete a simple drag route it looks that way. I do think Wingo should’ve risked an OPI to prevent that INT by Arch though.

True but a lot of people crowned him before… cough cough

I definitely didn’t remember him throwing sidearm last yr.

I'd say it's true Sark was worried abut pre-snap penalties, which kept him from using motion as much as he has in the past. The more I think about it, I don't really think the offensive game plan was bad or too simplistic. Arch missed throws. Ohio State covered well. Perhaps if Sark had used more tempo and quick passing game, it would have helped the offense move more in the first half. Sark probably wanted to avoid putting his defense back out on the field really quickly early in the game. That's not bad coaching. The two empty red zone possessions in the second half was the reason Texas lost.

There was open receivers like that multiple times, and pretty much every time throw was skipped to them or overthrown. He was extremely inaccurate and flustered till about the last 5min.

Well written as always Jeff, love your articles. Travis Shaw was a pleasant surprise today. Bill Norton was undervalued but was a big piece lost from last season. It seems Shaw may be able to fill that role which was a question mark heading into today's game.

The going for it on 4th down also killed us.
