I think @chennups was politely telling you that you said both visits were OV.

Refs continue to change outcomes. Just getting to be so bad that watching sports is losing its appeal TBH.

That's a catch.

Georgia's DL shifts late quite a bit. We'll have to deal with that better than we have in prior meetings.

Having an elite RB makes such a difference.

Three years ago, if you had told us that Manning and Sark would create a pedestrian offense at Texas, I think we would have all been in vehement disagreement.

There are so many questions on offense. We're not consistent and we have few explosive players. The OL is a mess. We could score 13 or 38 and neither would be surprising. Vandy 34-20 Texas

He's been great all year.

He was a willing blocker, but overpowered at times by smaller players. Really good hands and caught the ball away from his body. Good in contested catch situations. Returned kickoffs and showed good agility. But he was maybe 6’-2 1/2 and looked a bit thin. Not as big as his instagram profile of 6-5 220 His frustrations became a bit of a lightning rod and the crowd actually chanted “overrated” at him, which I thought was a bit much. He could be a good college player, but he didn’t seem like a game changer at the college level.

Brock had about 5 catches for 55 yards and a TD. Looked like a good player, but he’s not close to 6-5 and not a five star imo. He played mostly in-line but made his catches from the slot. Good hands and made two tough contested catches. But his team got spanked and he was pretty frustrated on the field. Not sure he’d be at the level our current TEs are right now.

We’re going to see Brock Williams play tonight. He’s a five star TE who plays for Libertyville (IL) HS. Will report back.

Last season, Arch played with confidence and was growing into a really good player. Not being the starter and not having all the outrageous expectations put him in a good place mentally. This year is not last year. Not sure why that is so difficult to understand.

Texas 28 - UTEP 17

The defense has outperformed the offense throughout Sark's tenure (except for year 1). It is very difficult, and rare, for a HC to be an elite OC at the same time. I don't think Sark can do it. He needs to find someone to call plays. It's no knock on him; it's almost universal that teams have separate playcallers. There's just too much going on simultaneously to not delegate that job.

I watched the 2019 game vs Baylor with Case McCoy at a hotel bar. We were both there for different family events, but watched Texas get our butts kicked all the way to the bitter end. The game sucked, but Case couldn't have been nicer.
