  1. Silas Bolden with one snap is sorta puzzling. He seems to be the type of player that Sark would like to get into space….especially with Bond playing hurt. They don’t have another player at WR like Bolden. Get him the ball in space a couple of times and let’s see what he can do. He should have been rewarded by saving the TD that was fumbled into the end zone against OU.
  2. While true that Sark doesn’t want his QB’s to turn a bad play into a worse play (ie as Sark would say….trying to make chicken salad out of chick s**t) that doesn’t mean Sark is risk averse. He’s actually very aggressive. Remember all the deep throws that would have been TDs if Ewers had made good throws or the WR would have caught the ball. Sark doesn’t mind going for the jugular with one play drives for a long TD. It is possible that Ewers looks for the check down if the play isn’t wide open. If so that is on Ewers.
  3. Thanks CJ. That is the play I was asking about. It was the first play after the Mukuba INT. Instead of a TD (or long gain) we ran 3 plays and punted. Missed opportunity.
  4. @CJ Vogel Do you have the clip of the first play after the interception by Mukuba? We had the ball around the Georgia 40 and Sark called the flea flicker type play. The WR was covered deep but Wisner slipped behind the Georgia LBs. Wisner might have scored (or least a long gain) if he held onto the ball. i think the pass was on target but could be wrong. That one missed play “might” have changed the game. Instead we were forced to punt after our defense gave us good field position.
  5. Do you think Georgia cares if they beat us and our entire starting lineup was out? Nope, they just want to win. We are missing Baxter, Derek Williams and probably our best WR (Bonds) but you want Georgia to be at full strength. Makes total sense if you are a Georgia fan.
  6. In 1970, one year after the game of the century, Royal and the Horns beat the hell out of Arkansas 42-7.
  7. Agree. Tuttle has passed effectively and given UM a passing threat. UW dared Orgi to throw because they knew he couldn’t.
  8. If he is done for the game He will have to settle for: 13 carries, 186 yards, 3TD and a long run of 75 yds
  9. Michigan scored and stopped UW. About 4 minutes left in 2nd qtr. UW leads UM 14-7
  10. Michigan changed QB’s already.
  11. Meanwhile Michigan, with Orji at QB, is like playing football before the forward pass was invented…😂
  12. UH had been shut out their past 2 games. You may be right but will they give Sonny more slack because of the playoff appearance?
  13. TCU converts a 4th and 9 from their the UH 42 on a generous spot. They didn’t show a replay so couldn’t tell, but TCU rushed to the line and ran a play. 3 plays later on 3rd and 6 TCU scored. UH leads 27-19.
  14. TCU driving with 13 minutes left in the game and UH leading 27-12
  15. First off we recruit Louisiana. Secondly, they haven’t been good the last 4 seasons but from 2014-2020 they went to 7 bowl games to our 5. They had as many 10 wins seasons as us (one). Plus they had four 9 win seasons (we had none). They had no losing records and we had 3. Third, the SEC has won 4 of the last 5 NC. Maybe we can learn something instead of always thinking we are better than everyone else. We haven’t won a NC in 20 years.
  16. May fire up the grill. Not a great week of games but it is college football after all. SEC games I will keep an eye on are Georgia/Auburn and Ole Miss/SC. And Missouri/A&M, only if Mizzu is winning. Since we play at Vandy after Georgia the Bama at Vandy game is of interest since Bama is coming off their win against Georgia. UCF/Florida also could be worth a look. Other games I will keep an eye on are Clemson/FSU to see how FSU looks without their QB. UNC plays 4-0 Pitt and UNC has lost back to back games to James Madison and Duke. Not a good look for Mack. Michigan plays its first road game of the season against Washington. I like watching the UM defense and I want to see if Michigan throws it more than 15 times (I’m taking the under…😀) If I can stay up late enough the Arizona/TT might be entertaining. I want to see Duane Akina do well as DC (plus I dislike TT) but Arizona is hard to figure out. They squeaked by Northern Arizona, then got blown out by KSU and then turned around and beat Utah. I’m sure there will be other games that catch my attention as the games unfold. Ready to relax and watch college football this weekend while our Longhorns are getting a much needed bye week.
  17. Agree. The grind of the SEC season takes a toll physically. Hell, after just playing Michigan we had multiple players not available the following week. If we take care of business we will play the top tier teams in the playoffs. And that’s more exciting.
  18. Why would the SEC schedule a home game in Austin weekend. That makes it more difficult, inconvenient and expensive for fans. It wasn’t a secret that F1 was that weekend.
