We differ. Texas doesn't have clear lack of talent. Texas has signed four straight top 5 classes of nationally recruited players.

First, I am not picking on you personally. This ultra-orange family feels your frustration. Nor, am I giving the coaches a free ride. Our problem is not play selection. NONE of them work......that's the issue. It seems that everyone thinks it is play selection or effort. It is not. It is play execution. The basis of our problem is "paralysis through analysis". Our linemen are thinking after the snap. They should be doing the thinking before the snap. By the time they figure it out, the play is blown up. Then panic sets in! Receivers curl into the linebacker instead of away. Receivers cut their routes quicker trying to "help" the QB. Of course, that help ends up leaving the ball behind the receiver not instead of ahead. Backs have given up on "picking holes". They just run straight and hope for something. If I have one issue with the coaches, the issue is that they have yet to have the linemen "just hit the closest guy". If no one is there, go find someone to hit. Offensive linemen are not Mensa. They are gorillas. Treat them as such. Of note, the one positive big play for the night occurred (in 4th qtr) when Weisner stepped up and blocked the doggin middle linebacker. .......... the only time any back blocked any inside threat all night. Thank the Lord for small favors. One last thought: 1 ugly win = ? pretty losses

Another bad idea of yours!

Arch is lucky this wasn't picked. Shouldve thrown it into the 3rd row

Truly a disaster class in play calling

Absolutely stupid play call

The LSU dealer trying to pawn off Kelly to PSU and the Pimp Signal at the end…..solid.

Frankly I don’t care which person ends up at which school. I care about who’s in the portal as a result, if our coaches can rectify the lack of clear talent / experience / depth on offense that should have been addressed last year, and if we can outgun the ones now willing to spend like crazy to get those guys.

Needs more pimp...

Mentioned with Arkansas ... but he shot it down quickly.

Sark wanted 2 plays to get 8 yards. Thought he could catch 4-5 here. Kentucky brings pressure. C gets blown up. RT loses inside. TE gets lost in the traffic. Just a total mess.

Good question You are correct, I did flip those. Good catch Also left out they recorded 26 1st downs to our 8. Which makes the final score even more impressive for our D. Thanks all.

Agreed Jeff. Bare minimum and at least 15 - 20 first downs:) I have to wonder how much sitting for most of 2 years effects a QB, especially one with the expectations Arch had on him.

Trick play on 3rd & 3, Kentucky ends up with pressure after rushing 2. Texas has 7 willing blockers in the backfield. Just baffling how this happens. Nick Brooks doesn’t reach. Connor Robertson flips back while engaged and allows the free rusher.

Interesting. You are saying Sarkisian and Manning aren't prepared at all and make no adjustments in game. That's not the flex you think it is.

Shaving with rubbing alcohol would be less painful. Thanks for doing it.

This is also pretty remarkable for all the wrong reasons.

Another good one.

Kentucky clears out the left side of the field from a 3x1 look and forces Texas to drop much deeper than necessary on 3rd and 7. The underneath route gets plenty of space as a result and converts as a result.

Also, this might rehash some bad memories for some folks. That was the company the Kentucky game keeps offensively.

Things are really starting to roll with Colin Simmons.

Much like a week ago, will be posting some nuggets from the game against Kentucky here in the thread below. I don't have all 22 access this weekend, but wanted to be sure to find some different angles and clips that could highlight where Texas was successful, or not, in the win.

Yeah, probably should have been.

Special teams and defense won this game. 3 FG by Shipley including one from 53 yards and the game winner in overtime from 45 yards. Our only TD was set up by a Bouwmeester punt that pinned Kentucky inside their 10. The defense stopped them, forced a punt and Niblett returned it to the 5 or 6 yard line and we were able to score a TD.

As a Buckeye fan, I’m on the edge of my seat waiting to hear this one as well haha
