OTF Premium Thoughts on Arch Manning

[Kyle Vochoska]

Do we have any theories as to why Arch was under center a lot more than Quinn ever was?

[cdibbs]

Given how Klubnik specifically has looked this game (and game 1 last year FWIW) I think maybe we can cut Arch some slack and expect him to use the next 3 weeks to get back on track and take care of Florida to start conference play. 

[HookemTexas]

Lots of people are assuming Florida is an automatic win, it’s in the swamp and they’ll be ready for payback.  Texas will need to make some big improvements to pull out a win, starting with Arch playing like he’s capable of.

[TXFF]

Don't forget what Colt said this week...the team is going into the game relatively blind because they had no good film on the new OC and DC which Colt said was a huge OSU advantage compared to the abundance of film on our coordinators. Makes sense.

When you can’t complete a simple drag route it looks that way.  I do think Wingo should’ve risked an OPI to prevent that INT by Arch though.

He gave up on it for sure.

We lose 14-9 if we kick 3 times in FG range.

Complain about whatever you want but going for it on 4th and 1 from the 1 foot line when an all a FG does is require you to score a TD later is dumb. Every other coach would have gone for it considering what Texas had shown offensively up to that point.

Uh, no, 16-14…the TD wasn’t on 4th down.

As i said in the game thread… too many poor side arm flicks without feet set. Look at this throw (ignore the fact that endries would have walked in for a td)

 

 

Endries could’ve easily had a 10+ catch for 100+ yds and 2 TDs as open as he was the whole game. It was crazy. If Arch ever figures out that guy is on our team, he’s gonna have a monster year!

I thought Arch would be more successful on qb sneaks, but he didn’t seem to get any real push. Looked similar to Quinn. 

We’ll be fine.

He had 5 ypc lol

Against two deep safeties and a light box.  Teams are gonna play us like that.  We basically did the same thing on defense.  Bend but dont break until the field closes in inside the 20

[Gpj0001]

For instance this is miss leading he played New Mexico and there hyping him up

Pretending a FG was the right call when it is 4th and ONE FOOT and you are down 7-0 isn’t serious.

It would be like getting a 11 in blackjack with the dealer showing a 16 and choosing to stand.

The biggest takeaways being at the game were 2) Receivers were open all over the field, especially Endries and Arch wouldn’t see them.

This.

 

I had to shake my head when I saw Bobby and some others talk about the WRs not getting an open when they were running open all day and Arch was missing them. First play of the game, not only was Deandre Moore wide open but Jack Endries was wide open right behind Moore. Arch had two open options and threw it in the dirt. On 4th & 3 from the 9 where Arch tries to hit Livingstone on the slot fade, Wingo is open for a 1st down and potentially td on a slant but Arch was locked on Livingstone. And then there's Arch missing a wide open Wingo on the big 3rd & 5 on the last possession.

I actually think that was Shannon that was open on that play.

That was on Wingo.  Feel free to stop your game when the ball is released.  There’s ample time to adjust yet he never does.

On which play are you referring to? 

[Here for the Wins]

The 3rd and 5 on the last possession.  It’s not a great throw, but Wingo’s reaction is delayed and odd.  He leaves his feet.
