This is absolutely brutal to watch.

I agree…I wasn’t overly impressed with the speed/game breaking ability of our offense. I wish we would go break the bank for Jalen Lott because he is the type of prospect we are missing.

The problem is our offense doesnt look or feel explosive. Tommy Castleanos looked like he was shot outta a cannon in his game against Bama. The Miami players all look electric in this game against ND. We may have some players who can run fast 40 times, but it doesnt seem like they show up in big games against UGA. If I was a 5 star receiver I just dont know if I would pick Texas.

Yep. Sark slow played the game…for too long.

A bit premature on all this doom and gloom. Let’s revisit after Oklahoma. That gives us 3 cupcakes, 1 road test and 1 neutral site rivalry game to see where Arch is at. The two best teams in the country may have just played each other yesterday and I think Arch will get better.

He’s always done that thing with his shoulders. Watch his debut vs tech

Quinn regresses over the course of his time here and it seems like Arch has regressed as well but too early to tell and I'll let the season play out for him. Could be something with coaching, could be nothing.

In a close game…TAKE THE POINTS SARK. Whew. Ok I feel better.

Texas has one of the fastest teams in the country. We have at least 6-7 skill players on offense that will run sub 4.5 when they eventually hit the combine over the next 2-3 draft cycles

Agree, we have no one that can what Blue did on this run.

That is obviously false. The throw to endries on the sideline was very well feathered. Many of the passes he did poorly with he has done perfectly fine with in the past. He does need work controlling his velocity.

…and Quinn couldn’t rip it, but feathered it well. Give Arch time to get his touch down when facing pressure.

Brooks Austin “the Film Guy” said he had a pro scout tell him that Arch can’t “feather” the ball. Everything is ripped on a rope. Wouldn’t have ever expected that from a seasoned QB “prodigy” who has been groomed his whole life but so far the tape doesn’t lie.

I’m still baffled by Arch’s inaccuracy on easy throws yesterday. Would be shocking for any 3rd year 5 star but even moreso one with his last name. Question is this were there any signs of this in his starts last year? I don’t remember noticing errant throws like that, but I haven’t gone back and looked. Maybe one of you could do a breakdown this week? Would love to know if this is an ongoing issue or first road start jitters or something. Thanks for considering!

Sorry if already posted. Just got back from Columbus earlier today and rewatched the game. I read other posts about a possible shoulder injury, but on more than one occasion Manning kept rotating both shoulders as if his pads were bothering him. He did it again on the final drive when he threw it short to Endries’ feet on 2nd down. Damn I’m pissed if his inaccuracy was in part due to an equipment f’up. Smh

Our defense played pretty damn well.

Sark needs to recruit a big boy every year

………….Cody Johnson.🤘

I’ll say this about Arch. I don’t care who your family is, what you’ve been through or anything. there’s no way he hasn’t heard all of the hype and pressure and to be a real first time starter with 1,000 times the normal pressure a QB faces for a first start I’m sure he was gripping f that ball tight Analysts are literally apologizing for how much they talked about him and hyped him up. Never seen that before.

Definitely agree on kick and punt returner. That’s the best a program with Texas and its NIL war chest can do at those positions? We should have Peter Warwick 2.0 out there.

Durham is a beast. Hate we missed on him

Wingo looked pretty fast

I think missing out on Eric Singleton to auburn hurt. Johntay isn’t a burner and zachariah is more of a gimmick player. Jet sweeps, screens, special teams and so on. Not really a complete wide receiver who’ll make a difference.

I’ve been asking this question. I don’t think there are game changers on this offense. I will wait for it to play out but I don’t believe a trio of Wingo, Moore, and Livingstone is going to be good enough (add Mosley to that if he gets healthy). Always disagreed with the decision to go after guys who had more size and less speed this year. Get why we did it, but personally didn’t like it when there were so many explosive options in the portal. We’ll see how it goes.

I'm not convinced Ohio State has a faster offense than Texas, and if they do its a small advantage at best. I'd put Texas speed towards the top of the entire country. Wingo, Moore, Livingstone, Butler all most likely in 4.4 range. Arch has some tremendous wheels as does Nick Townsend. In my opinion its more frustrating that we didn't see the speed because of lack of execution. Against zone coverages a lot is sitting down and finding gaps. Wingo and Arch need to figure it out by Gainesville. Not sure of Wisners top end speed but he doesn't look slow to me and Baxter should get faster and faster. Pre injury he had some jets. I'd have loved Zechariah Branch but hopefully some of the freshman step up. It hurts to say it, but a head on straight Johntay Cook would be getting some big playing time this season.
