This is a bit off topic, but it is enormously frustrating to see Keelon Russell as a true freshman dramatically outplaying Arch in his 4th year at Texas. It makes me think that Deboer is much, much better than Sark at either finding guys who can succeed in his system, or adapting his system to fit his QB’s strengths. Sark has never had a qb at Texas in the same ballpark as Penix, but that’s what Quinn and Arch were supposed to be. I don’t know if it’s a Sark issue or a Milwee issue. But Deboer makes them look like amateurs at QB development and maximizing his QBs’ talents.

Keelon's start definitely makes the QB development gap look rough, especially with Arch having so much more time in the program. Still feels early to write the whole book on Arch, but Texas needs the offense to stop looking this constrained.

Yep, a lot of people thought DeBoer was just a Penix merchant, but that couldn't be further from the truth.  DeBoer has always had good to great play from the QBs and WRs he's coached during his coaching career as a head coach and offensive coordinator.

I think it is more likely that everything is chalk than there is any upset this weekend.

Also keep in mind Bama has played one team in the top 50 defenses (EPA / play) in Kentucky.  Keelon went 16/23 188 yds 1TD 2 INTs (pick 6) with a QBR of 43.  Not really about DeBoer/Sark because I agree with you but more so just pumping the breaks on Keelon with a 4 game sample sizes.

He also had a RB playing QB his first year at Alabama. Simpson and so far Russell have both been great. I also question development at the position here. Two #1 overall rated recruits at QB who have not been on that same level. Fingers need to be pointed at Milwee more imo
