PFF: Horns Highest Graded Offensive Line in Pass Protection This Season

I am surprised that’s still the case after the UTSA game. Flood haters have been mighty quiet so far this season.

This kind of makes the Arch struggles a bit more of a head scratcher.  A lot of the early struggles last year were due to inexperience and poor pass pro.  If the protection continues to hold up, maybe that will help Arch get the ship righted a little quicker this year.

Arch has had a TON of time all year....so the excuse last year that he didn't have time causing his low completion percentage is now worthless b/c his completion percentage this year is worse than last! lol

Technically he’s 0.1% better.

Wonder how these grades work. Arch’s only real pressure has come from blitzes. Assuming these OL grades don’t account for them?

I think Arch gets better when he’s pissed off. It became a bit of a meme that the nation laughed at, but when he got popped after scoring a TD during the UTSA game last year (or was it UTEP?) and got up salty, it made him a better player. When Livingtone kept dropping balls in the Michigan game, you could see Arch on the sideline pissed off saying “F it!” and then he proceeded to rip it up. Sark has said that he needs to get popped a bit to get his competitive juices flowing. I actually think, paradoxically, the clean pockets have prevented him a bit from getting his competitive juices flowing. It’s why I hope Sark dials up some designed QB runs early. Arch might need it to get his head in the game.

Pretty crazy. What a difference a year makes.

Blake did you know the last two years that Tennessee has opened the SEC season with loses to Oklahoma & Vanderbilt. I believe the #1 team in the country with Arch behind center will be just fine. “Hookem “
