OU 23 - Texas 13

24-20 us

20 - 13 OU

If OU can run the ball our defense isn’t what we think it is at all. Florida ran on us last year and has Jaden Baugh. OU hasn’t run on anyone. Their only runner is Mateer. You spy him and rough him up. OU sucks at running the ball. OU should be one dimensional organically. I am wanting our pass rush and coverage to improve more. That’s what we truly need. We gave up so many yards to run after catch. Lagway was on one leg and we couldn’t get after him enough to make them pay for dropping back. Need Muhammad back and a pass rush that was glazed repeatedly all off season to show up with their own 6 sack game. The Texas pass rush is being paged.

Amen. Please don't make this into another Orangebloods

no place for this.

27 - 20, OU wins.

Ok. There can be a end of the world everyone hates everyone game thread and there can be a mods game thread. Both can coexist.

Did you think that when Caleb Williams was similar on his way to the Heisman? In my opinion, they should drill down further. Those types will hold the ball longer because they won’t give up on plays. Tom Brady versus Mahomes. Who would you think is higher? Interestingly enough, there was someone who posts on here that in 2021 pointed the finger on pass protection being the culprit for Casey Thompson having the quickest time to throw in the Big 12. Think it was around 2.71 seconds. There are tons of variables on that component. Percent of screens, depth of target, ability to evade the rush then throw as compared to get sacked, etc. And certainly how decisive the QB is but thst gets obscured due to the other stuff. I am not arguing your point because I think we need to creative throwing the ball particularly if we cannot run it.

I said Murray’s very knowledgeable. Jesse Palmer played too. Sark as well. Are you saying they are above critique? I am a nobody. I am a dude that was converted to QB in an era in Texas when few, if any, QBs progressed to the NFL. There were guys in this state fully capable of that but schemes and coaching didn’t dictate. Guys like Brees had to run to Purdue. I’m not saying I was one of those guys, but I could throw it 60 yards and at one time was pretty damn fast. We never worked on footwork, throwing motion. In retrospect it was a poor move to convert me for numerous reasons. I was good enough to get some recruiting looks at a different position in spite of rarely, if ever, playing the position or system that played to my strengths. That’s a retrospective look at it. A brief one at that. Since that time I’ve watched the hell out of some football, observed elements of it beyond the norm, evaluate some stats with some attempt to delve into them further, coached some youth and observed a generation grow up in today’s game. Personally, I’ve had an a ha moment relatively recently about this. Largely due to this observation about a generation growing up. Here is what I said and will say about UTEP. The run-pass ratio was 71% run in the 1st quarter. Only 4 games since the start of 2024 has it been 50% or greater. If I remember correctly, two of those were 50%. So which is the outlier? This was the first game that Neto didn’t rotate. The Oline played the entire game. On like our first 11 first down plays, all runs but 2 passes. On first and 2nd down to start that 1st quarter, Arch had 5 opportunities. All were positive. Then he missed Wingo then didn’t throw to Livingstone then missed Livingstone. Absolutely needs to make those plays. Beyond that it was chaos with dudes playing that I’m not sure how much they even practiced together. Niblett got a passed defensed for heaven sakes. The way that game played out was like no other I can recall from a play calling standpoint and a personnel standpoint. It would also lead me to believe we prepared heavily to run the ball. We were never at risk of losing. I don’t recall seeing Niblett playing the slot since. Have you? I don’t recall Clark being 5-wide and running a hitch since. Do you? From the QB standpoint, it’s really who cares in my book. But you always try to learn and improve. I said going into Florida that you wouldn’t see that gameplan. You didn’t. Whatever issues you felt at UTEP, they weren’t the same at UF. Based on an educated guess on practice then how it was presented versus UTEP, that was a wasted week from a team and QB standpoint. That was a coach choice not a QB one. But you do have to consider Moore and Baxter injuries but still poor. Lastly about Murray the reference to his completion percentage opens the door to plays that didn’t work exactly right. It happens to all QBs. It is being presented that Arch is somehow infinitely worse at those things. The discussion on those fronts is not balanced. And again, I’d ask if a critique is saying I’m not sure what he’s looking at, shouldn’t that critique have some discussion regarding what defense he prepared for then also what defense they’re playing? You know since that might dictate what the QB is evaluating. Yes, Murray says if the safety stays down, he’s looking Wingo. What I’m saying, and sure tell me I’m completely wrong if you think so, but I’m not completely wrong anyway. That safety bails to the middle of the field, turns his back on Wingo so to get back in the play he has to turns his hips, get back outside and outrun a guy who is likely faster. The back end looks like cover 3, but who knows cause someone dropped off that area where Endries ran. I’m guessing but do not know that Arch got a different look post snap than presnap then due to pressure timing was made more difficult. Murray didn’t answer those questions but merely threw out a question himself. But he’s the professional so I get his opinion is more respected and in turn, valuable. I may put myself on ignore for the length of this post.
