    I'd be lying if I said I'm not worried about the offensive line. I have some pause there, but nothing outrageous. If there's one thing I'm confident this line will be able to do is get a push. This offensive line was already known to be better run blockers than pass protectors. With the was Sark operates his offense, he has something he hasn't had in a back since Roschon. That's someone who can run inside, now he has that in Baxter, Gibson, and Clark. This difference this year is he has the arm to make you pay when the safety gets caught looking in the backfield.

    We Texas fans are worried about this game. We are confident because this game is played 8/30 and not in October. We know as the season goes and Sayin gets valuable reps he's going to get better as the season goes. Same can be said about Arch. But speaking solely of this game it's cause for caution.

    You keep forgetting you had an experienced 5th year qb vs a first time starter. One thing about first year starters is they tend to lock onto recievers. It's different this year.

    What was Smith's production like against clearly the best two defenses he faced in Michigan and Texas combined? Keep in mind Will Johnson didn't play and they had a parch work secondary.

    Our Buckeye friends here might not want to hear this, but their team this year remind me of the team that went to Alabama and won. We didn't have a JJ Smith, but we did have the best left tackle, Worthy, Sanders, Mitchell, Brooks( up to TCU), a nasty run defense, but no real pass rush that year, and a quarterback that held the team back. That doesn't mean we go to Columbus and win, but it does mean the quarterback is going to make or break your season. Sayin is very similar to Quinn in size, release both arm slot and quickness, but little better athlete. We could not maximize the offense, while Worthy ended up having a good year, with better QB play he's in the conversation for the best wideout in the nation. As good as Smith and the rest of that corp is, they are only as good as the person delivering the ball.

    Thank you!!!

    Sayin is 6ft with two pair of socks on at best weighing about 190. Stroud is 6'3" 218 with a cannon, what about Sayin says he's similar to Stroud.
  8. Dread-headed Texan
    You're looking at it the wrong way. If Sayin is seeing ghosts then is it going to matter if everyone is running wide open downfeild, there will be more focus on hitting and confusing Sayin first. He's not going to have 5 seconds to decide where to go with the ball.
  9. Dread-headed Texan
    This is just me watching Sayin. I have to ask with his size, his arm slot, and the fact that you're going to want to get the ball out quickly, are you worried about about tipped passes? That would be a real concern if I were a Buckeye fan.
  10. Dread-headed Texan
    But that's just it I'm not talking about Smith. Smith is just 1/11 if the person throwing the ball is confused or the guys up front can't get em blocked up. Its takes a lot to get the ball to a receiver, and when you have recievers like OSU you attack the person throwing the ball.

    That's cool I'm not talking about Day tho. Go watch the body language of Texas wideouts after Arch showed he could accurately throw the deep ball. You'll see Golden and Bond stop running because they didnt believe it would get to them in multiple games.
  12. Dread-headed Texan
    That's not what I said. I didn't say anything about holding anyone to anything. What I did was named the coverages you're going to see and asked if a first time starter will be about to decipher what he's seeing and what the front is doing. I didn't mention one reciever.
  13. Dread-headed Texan
    I can tell you what coverages you're going to see. Match 3, Match Quarters, Split Zones, and Man over. Texas runs really simple coverages, but good luck figuring what they're in presnap while trying to figure out if it's a simulated pressure or if they're coming or not, and if they are coming who's coming as a first time starter. Hartline can only help for 15 seconds then comms shut off.

    As I watch the Michigan/Ohio State game I'm so glad we got Baxter and Clark back. I can't wait until we get in short yardage and goal to go situations where we aren't running zone schemes.
  15. Dread-headed Texan
    Texas is already motivated, Ohio State is the last team to beat them. Nothing any player or coach says or doesn't is going to motivate them more or tame their motivation.

    Sayin has been QB1 for about a week. It's hard to be the leader you need to be when you just became the guy. As hard as Quinn tried to be the leader, we seen when Arch got in the game guys played more intentionally, the crowd cheered so loud it could have cracked your TV screen. Being the unquestioned leader of the team sounds like coach speak, but it's important. I'm curious as to what happens if Sayin doesn't play well, will there be a split. The most popular guy in the locker room is QB2.
  17. Dread-headed Texan
    You'll be fine, I'm almost certain it'll be streamed by someone on YouTube. If it isn't I'm going to my favorite watering hole to watch the game. But odds are they'll work it out there's to much money to be made.
  18. Dread-headed Texan
    Here is what they sent
  19. Dread-headed Texan
    I'm an old defensive back at heart so I watch the qb for tendencies. One thing that's very noticeable about Sayin is he isn't very tall and he has a low kind of side arm release. Texas fans does that sound familiar? Remember all of the batted balls at the line of scrimmage and all the tipped interceptions?
  20. Dread-headed Texan
    You won't get anything from Sark that's concrete until conference play where injury status has to be reported.
  21. Dread-headed Texan
    He likes playing press man. Livingstone and Wingo aren't small guys, if they reach or don't get a good jam it's over.
  22. Dread-headed Texan
    This video is 5 years old and while he may have tinkered here and there his foundation is his foundation. For example, Sark is still running the same principles and concepts he has run since USC. The difference is he added a little more RPO and different motions. Patricia has a philosophy and a leopard doesn't change his spots. One thing you know about his New England defense is that they relied heavily on execution than they did on controlled chaos. https://youtu.be/axXDR5G9N3Y?feature=shared
  23. Dread-headed Texan
    I don't believe he made the 53. The Chargers aren't keeping four qbs

    🤣 Dr Pepper shooting strays with that qb draft slide commercial
  25. Dread-headed Texan
    That play right there is why Danirls isn't an NFL QB
