What’s our identity on offense?

Why can't they establish any semblance of a consistent run game? A rusher will get in a rhythm then they'll be benched for multiple series...

Baffling 

It's hard to get into a rhythm when 10 of your 15 possessions are as follows:

— 7 three-and-outs

— A four-play drive with a punt

— Two plays and an interception

— Four plays and an interception

 

This team had an identity during the Quinn era. It was initially to feed the ball to Bijan/Rojo and Baxter/Brooks then kill them with our talented receivers. In the Arch era there has been nothing. That’s not 100% on Arch. Just a combination of QB play, 0 pile driving RBs, play calling, and inconsistent O line play to name a few. As it’s been mentioned before, PPG have declined each year since 2023.

Since we’re talking offense…. Interesting stat:  since joining the SEC Texas home:away point differential on offense is 15 points!  Perhaps Sark should have recruited an OC instead of (or at least in addition to) a DC in the off-season.

The identity is that they are very quick.

Quick to get off the field for another punt.

Sad but true.

During the Quinn era they had NFL running backs including one of the best in the NFL right now in Bijan.  During the Arch era they've had jags (Baxter's been hurt).  Quinn also had a better oline as well.  That's not to excuse Arch, he's got his share of issues, but certainly doesn't help.

I doubt we hear anyhting from Sark regarding any injury/health updates too. "Wait till the injury report" will be the answer.

I predict we will hear “we had a very good practice” everyday next week from Sark. 

We don’t have an identity. At all. Sometimes it’s long bombs. Sometimes it’s power run. Sometimes we throw screens and run to the sideline. We don’t have any consistent, definable strategy it seems. 
 

I’m sure Sark does (hope he does) but it’s not observable.
