Lmao at this thread

I get what you're saying. Guess I'm just not wired to think that way. The only thing Texas has shown me so far is that we got maybe the best defense in college football, we're clutch when we need to and that we're way too inconsistent on offense. Call it optimism but I've seen nothing from this Texas team that actually worries me in a "this can't be fixed this year" way. Last year I thought that way. Last year I thought that we had a bad OL and no running game and a subpar receiving core (And Arch was still up and down but he did get a lot better from game 1 to 13) and the issues on the defense from a DC POV were pretty obvious. Don't see that this year. Could it happen that we never put it together? Yes, I'll be sad and frustrated when that happens. I've seen nothing that can't be fixed though, and that makes me a lot more optimistic and less miserable than some other people, I guess.

Don't think I've watched much content at all this week just cause everyone has been so insufferable at the start of the week. My point wasn't about what I need to change cause I clearly can handle my worries about this team much better, it's about calling out a fanbase that is just miserable a lot of the times, when instead should be enjoying every single win a bit more. Trust me, you can critique and not be miserable and enjoy wins all the same. I do it all the time.

I don't really get what's hard to understand that the reasons for the anxieties are pretty clear to me. You can still try and not be miserable about it and ruin everyone else's experience. What's being miserable gonna do about it? Do you think the team on offense is playing badly on purpose? You think sudden magical changes will make every issue disappear? Not attacking you personally, just trying to get my point across

My point is that a lot of what I see from people is straight up not "critcism". I'm the first person to be critical of anything this team does. I want them to win and win with style. Got no problem with actual objective analysis of the game and of the performances. Never had, never will.

He was serviceable today. Did he make some bonehead plays? Yes. But by definition of the word servicable, he was exactly that today. He was serviceable and mediocre. Different to be mediocre against UTSA at home and to be mediocre against Tennessee (probably a top 5 defense in the country) at Tennessee while having no running game. The times Arch had any sort of running game we moved the ball at will. More awareness, play smarter, be better against the blitz. All of that. More than fair. But I see quite a lot of over reactions.

TL;DR: Winning is supposed to be fun, a lot of yall are making it miserable cause you're anxious about whether Texas will get it done this year or not We can critique and not be miserable and not go overboard with the "analysis", if we can even call it that Love this team but god are some of yall making it hard to follow *any* content regarding Texas football with your negativity This doesn't really have anything to do with OTF, although I'll say that clearly some fans are not smart enough to pick up on the nuance of the analysis done by some people at OTF

That's kind of my point tho. I already don't look at youtube chat but I'd like to watch coffee & football on monday morning after a big win in Neyland against a top 15 team (And a top 5 defense, let's be honest about their talent) and rejoice in Texas being 4-0... instead all I get is frustrated people projecting their anxieties onto everyone else. The problems are clear for this Texas team, no need to overboard and be miserable.

It's everywhere. Just saw someone call the QB "Brain dead". Youtube chat is a hell hole. Twitter is even worse. Winning is supposed to be fun. There's a lot of people in the Texas fanbase that make it miserable.

Nothing about my reaction is due to anything that you guys at OTF are doing, I want to make that clear. But it's genuinely become so much less enjoyable to watch this team and less fun because of some people in this fan base. We can critique and want the best for the team without always having to jump to absolutes. Just ranting I guess. Winning is supposed to be fun. A lot of the times getting on this threads or in the chat on monday morning makes it miserable.

Maybe get the troll out of the site... What you get from the 3 dollar promo

200 yards 75% completion and what he did today is AT worst a mediocre performance. That's fair. We couldn't do anything on offense regardless of Arch today, saying that we have a brain dead QB is genuinely a dehumanizing comment and I hope you realize that and do better. Really not that hard to be like: "Arch needs to be more aware, those two throws beyond the LOS were really dumb. He also needs to lock on his primary reads less". That's it. That's pretty much all you can really say. If you saw the game today and thought that then please stop watching football you're clearly too emotional or dumb for it or probalby both. Have a good rest of your day or night.

As a Texas fan I sincerely pray we fall back again into irrelevancy just to spite the many miserable losers that I've seen after today's win. Criticism is one thing, and lord knows we got things to critique about this team both offense and special teams. The name calling and absolutely brain dead analysis made by frustrated losers that have nothing better to do than to take out their frustrations based on how a team of 18-22 year olds play is genuinely disgusting. Shows have become unwatchable because of the chat. Threads too have become unreadable. And I understand that the criticism by OTF of the team is more than fair and always done from a professinal point of view, but clearly most people on the fanbase can't seem to grasp the message that's being sent and the gravity of it. Texas needs to clean some s#]t up and fast if we want to win against the good offenses that we're gonna face after OU, but jesus are yall making everything seems so much dire than it actually is. Lot of yall need to go out and take a walk to clear your head before posting on here or on the OTF chat. Needed to get this off my chest, have a good rest of your day/night.

Genuinely thinking about ending my subscription what the hell has this site become 🤣 Gonna skip on the OTF shows from now on you miserable losers and this miserable fanbase deserves to go back to irrelevancy

THANK YOU JEFF! Sark is on his 4th year with Arch and 2nd year starting and he still doens't know what an offense around Arch should look like! Did Arch have awareness problems today with the throws beyond the LOS and the delay of game? Yes. Was he inaccurate and making tons of bad decisions? I don't think so! At all! Any time we go tempo with quick answers we move the ball at will. Any time Arch scrambles we get tons of yards. But no, we drop back while they rush three and Arch sits there for 5 seconds cause Sark tells him to not tuck and run when he doens't see an answer. I'm serious, Sark the play caller, the OC, would've been fired even last year for the way he called some games. Does he have moments of brilliance? Yes. But 2nd year with Arch and you still don't know what the offense should look like?

I agree with this take a lot more than the easy finger pointing that I see from a lot of fans. I saw some things today that just lead me to believe there's issues in coaching when it comes to the offense. Play calling was suspect at times too. I get that we couldn't really run the ball but those were the best play calls that Sark had if we couldn't run the ball? It's a serious problem that any Sark offense becomes COMPLETELY putrid any time there's problems running the ball. Any team that can make Texas one dimensional will win on defense cause Sark has no answers. Obviously not all is on Sark... it never falls on just one person but there's serious issue IMO when it comes to coaching on both special teams and offense.

Oh well if mr. IQ says so... 😅🤣🤣🤣🤣

Jesus how many points did we lose by and are we 0-4? 😅🤣🤣🤣🤣

Funny how any time we had any sort of running game suddenly Arch was able to actually execute and when we didn't we weren't able to execute. Funny how that is lol. Look, Arch's main problem today was awareness with those two passes beyond the LOS but to think the offense sputtering was on him and not the running game or the play caller is silly. Go back and look, any time we had a competent running game we moved the ball at will with Arch being damn near perfect. Is he a worse processor than some people might've thought coming into the season? Yes. Does he need better awareness as a 4th year guy? Yes. But once again, just like last week or against OSU, some of this comments are laughable. Laughable. There's no middle ground with a lot of you guys. A lot of stuff need cleaning but some of yall are acting like you watched Mateer play football. Go take a walk and clear yalls heads lol.

This is BS and the team doesn't need any extra motivation. If they do we got a problem.

What an analysis by grandpa

No that’s not how performance anxiety works. You don’t play better when there’s more pressure for you to be perfect if you have performance anxiety.

Sorry but I disagree. By “he’s always gonna be inaccurate” I mean that he’s never gonna the type of passer that Mensah is. So expecting every throw to be on target is just expecting a different QB. You can live with Arch throwing 68-75% if he connects on the deep balls like he always has. If he doesn’t then that’s when it hurts you.

He also had 75% completion and had some really really good throws... Arch is always gonna be inaccurate, he's not Mensah, but not 29% for 45 yards inaccurate, be for real. We can be real about who Arch is as a player without being disingenuous. 2 or 3 throws sailing high out of 15 is not the same as going 5/17.

Yeah I rewatched the game and noticed the same thing just watching him play. Don't get me wrong, he wasn't bound for a perfect game even before the hit but like he had 2 bad throws before he got hit. After that he was much, much worse in everything... accuracy, processing, decision making... everything. I still think Sark should've benched Arch after that hit, don't think it was any good for him confidence wise to see himself struggle. Here's to hoping for a Vanderbilt type of game from Arch! Probably one of the most complete game he's played at Texas
