  1. So we are running play action. What do you want straight dropbacks from here on out? Are you seeing what happens when Arch throws into the teeth of a defense? I'm not in love with Sark's playbook, but I understand what he is doing. Arch is not a smart or shifty runner. He is a solid passer when things break down, but that is not the same as moving the pocket. Arch is best in scramble drill, off script situations. I thought outside of bailing on the run a little too early, Sark called a decent game. I thought we struggled to execute. Between drops, missed throws, and penalties we kept shooting ourselves in the foot. I also truly think that the SEC doesn't want us winning for a bit because the flags come out big time when we are playing their crown jewel. Same thing happened last year.
  2. Yep. The guys we've gotten that can play weren't supposed to be here. We aren't getting tier one athletes. We are getting projects. I think what has happened is we were so bad at development for so long on the offensive side of the ball that the negative recruiting is working. I mean what high level offensive talent have we put out? You can count it on one hand. Sark is going to have to get really creative to make up the difference. That's what we needed last year but he wouldn't budge on changing things up, and we could still win in spite of it. This year is not that. He has to not only get more creative offensively, but he has to pull some of the youth into the game. We stumbled on Brooks because of injuries. Who knows who the best receiver on the team is. Could be someone on the bench.
  3. We beat Pig and aggy and that's 9, plus whatever bowl game we are in.
  4. No we aren't Hobbes @scottsins is correct. We've dumbed down the offense a lot. We threw away the RPO game, played way less 12, and run a lot more simplistic routes overall. Stops, comebacks, outs, and slants are way more frequent. You are right we aren't moving the pocket but moving the pocket brings levels concepts into play and Arch has struggled with those so maybe Sark doesn't trust it. Who can say what that man is thinking.
  5. and you thought Sark wouldn't win more than seven games. Back to back playoffs, and this year being a down year, he will still likely get to 10 wins. Even after scheduling the National Champs out of conference.
  6. Indiana has only beaten Oregon. They haven't beaten playoff quality teams. They are just beating tier two level teams, which is exactly what we've been doing. We largely beat the teams we are supposed to and lose to teams better than us. Florida is the only outlier. Texas isn't sneaking up on Georgia.
  7. We are not in the same area code as Ohio State in recruiting. Their hand me downs are our starters. Anyone with eyes can see that.
  8. I'm not sure how you don't see it. Texas just doesn't get top tier dudes with any regularity Hobbes. It's not a Sark thing, it's an US thing. I mean offensively. Ohio State, Georgia, Bama have DUDES every year. Our best receiver all time? Roy Williams? Think about OSU or Bamas best receivers. Sure we've had Ricky, Bijan, and Charles. I'm not sure why it happens but we just don't get the dudes these other teams have man. Sure Sark has his flaws but something else is going on as to why we cannot and have not been able to land top tier talent on both sides of ball. We can get rid of this coach and the next coach will face the same issue.
  9. We called what we can execute and we still didn't execute. Geezus Tex you gotta call SOMETHING lol.
  10. I'm not giving him a pass but someone with your intellect shouldn't be pissed after you saw the product offered. You should've seen this coming and made peace with it a long time ago.
  11. Once we fielded the offense we have we were always going to end up here. We can't sustain drives, and so our defense is exposed for way longer than a D should be. Defense is like a puzzle, and the more cracks you get at it the better chance you get at solving it. They had the ball for 35 minutes. We had 15 first downs and 2 of 12 on 3rd. As long as we keep trotting out this offense this kind of thing is going to happen. We just aren't very good.
  12. Players make plays Hobbes. Mack looked like the best coach in the country in 2005. Kirby's guys executed and ours didn't. We dropped the ball when it was thrown well and missed receivers when we needed to hit them. Of course at the end of the day it's the coach's fault, and that rings true for every team. Even the team who is top 5 every single year but keeps losing to lesser teams while beating the good ones.
  13. Here is what I see. I see a fanbase that doesn't understand the limitations of it's team. You want our linemen to run the misdirection that you saw Georgia running? Have you seen our linemen try to block in space? You want us to be as multiple as you saw Georgia was with their QB forgetting that we had to simplify the offense in order to just be competent. You want Wingo to be Jeremiah Smith but Wingo IS Wingo and does Wingo shit during the game. Baxter is Baxter not Jadan Baugh, he won't be making jump cuts in the hole and running through arm tackles. We just aren't very good offensively and our defense can't carry water forever.
  14. We've lost 3 ball games. Two of them to teams better than us. We lost three ball games last year. All 3 to the only two teams who recruited better than us. We just aren't finding a way to beat teams that are more talented than we are. It's as simple as that. Arch is a 5 star. Well, so is Georgia's QB. Georgia is executing better than we are because they are better than we are. You guys pissed about us losing to Georgia after watching us this first part of the season blow my mind.
  15. Kirby has out-recruited everyone for years. You should look into it. He shouldn't lose. Ever. Us losing to him actually makes sense.
  16. They are a better program. They are THE most talented team in the country from a recruiting standpoint. He is supposed to beat us. He is supposed to beat everyone. Every year. Only Ohio State should touch them. But they still lose.
  17. Took Kirby 6 years to win a title
  18. Yeah. That same dude has a Bama problem, and managed to lose 4 ball games the last two years too. He may get up for us but he can't get up for Tide. Every coach has their shortcomings.
  19. Honestly we just aren't that talented and haven't been for quite some time. We don't have anyone who is a complete back. Watching other schools have a guy running through arm tackles and making jump cuts to set up blocks is painful. The last person we had like that left here in 2022.
  20. Keep in mind the same dude you are praising has been worse than us over the last two seasons collectively.
  21. I think he calls what he sees and doesn't factor in what happened until the game is over. He doesn't stubbornly run the ball.
  22. Geezus guys take a deep breath. It's not that hard. We just aren't as good as Georgia. We weren't last year, and and less so this year. Anyone pissed about that Georgia game after seeing our product this yea isn't paying attention.
  23. Aggy hasnt played anyone bro
