  1. I attended the game in College Station. I came away pretty impressed with Quinn. I could see what he was seeing on the field. He typically made good decisions. Then I rewatched the game on ESPN and I can see why folks are a bit unhappy. The defense wasn’t going to let us lose that game, but Quinn was trying pretty hard to sell. He had a couple turnovers, but he could have easily had another Georgia type day. There’s not another starter on the team who would be starting with this lack of consistency. Gbenda got benched because he was good for two assignment busts a game. Campbell has been benched multiple times throughout the season. I’d like to see Auburn next if he can’t get it together.
  2. I’ve been critical of Quinn this past month, but I’ve seen steady improvement each week. Whether that’s health or development, I don’t know. I was impressed with him last night. The Ags were rambunctious and he didn’t get flustered. I will say Isiah Bond got fucking manhandled off the line on multiple occasions, and it was clear he was Quinn’s 1st read. Quinn was able to come off and find guys consistently. The turnovers are inexcusable but I think it’s something he can improve. Maybe.
  3. There was a lot of sad drunk aggies last night. I was walking to the west campus parking garage and this kid tried to scale a 15 foot drop from a ramp. Luckily a tree kind of broke his fall. He walked away as if he didn’t just fracture his tailbone. I had a conversation with an Aggie Band member who was walking alone with his trumpet, head all shaved. Excellent guy, but he was pretty beat up about the loss.
  4. He’ll likely be thrown in the fire again next week if Banks can’t go. Proud of the young man.
  5. Being at the game I was impressed with Quinn. Our receivers were getting jammed up and he was still finding guys. He simultaneously almost sold the game though. Guess that’s who he is.
  6. I hope Quinn carves these boys up. It’s a lot to ask for him to play at a high level against two aggressive defensive lines back to back while being all banged up. I think he should have took the week off. Fuck it, let’s go.
  7. Georgia Tech Drum Major is A Star.
  8. We couldn’t move the ball on these scrubs at home without personal fouls. With all our weapons. Still perplexes me.
  9. I been in College Station all day, not much burnt orange. Mildly depressing atmosphere.
  10. The Ags were spreading a rumor that Quinn tweaked the oblique in practice. That’s probably what is being referenced.
  11. Makes sense if Quinn’s practice ability looks anything like the 2nd half vs Kentucky. Arch is enough to beat Aggy. It’d allow Quinn another week to get his body right.
  12. Does Quinn survive A&M and UGA back to back? I don’t think he has to play to beat A&M. Arch may even match up better.
  13. I think the people blaming Quinn for all of our issues are dumb. Although he does appear to be one of the weaker links of the offense since October. Our offensive line can really take over games late. Our WRs create a lot of separation and run consistent routes. Our RBs lack mass, but they’re doing their best. The TE’s have been great all year. Quinn looks really banged up. He moves like an old man. I’ll be pleasantly surprised if he bounces back these next two weeks.
  14. Not a sustainable game plan with our backs. You can’t run Wisner 25 plus times a game. Blue & Gibson are averaging a fumble a game. We need at least average QB play to keep this offense rolling.
  15. No, we’re not. We’re all Longhorns. Why would we want to watch goofy ass QB play every Saturday? The dude moves like he’s 45. Velocity is non existent. The deep ball is hall of fame trash. His pocket presence was pretty good today, I was slightly encouraged.
  16. I may be wrong, but I don’t think we’re the kind of team who can afford to look over a Kentucky. They’ve competed well against comparable QBs and defensive fronts. We didn’t exactly light up the worst secondary in the P5 yesterday.
  17. I don’t think anyone thinks Arch is objectively “better” than a three starter at QB. A better fit? Who knows. This offense is in dire need of a threat. Whether it’s a deep ball or a third down scramble. Offensive football is so dumbed down today that you just need a guy who can hit the open man. Hopefully Quinn can bounce back, he’s got some real tests the next couple weeks.
  18. “Let’s see what happens”. Even if it’s a first round exit? Fuck it. Im down for the ride.
  19. There’s a lot of hurt Longhorns in this thread in serious denial. Quinn has always been an inconsistent player, but it’s just been egregious at times this season. I want to see him successful as much as anyone, but our offense is pedestrian. My old man chewed me out on the phone today, “I’ve been watching ball 35 years, this mother fucker is no good”. I don’t agree with that sentiment entirely, but I don’t think his assessment is far off.
  20. I don’t know, things started getting a little sketchy when those defensive snaps were getting higher and higher. Once Norton and crew check in, that ball starts to move down field.
  21. Did you watch QB play at OU the week prior? Or during the UGA game? Or today vs Arkansas? Why are we all pretending that it’s not our reality? Because he lit up Michigan? Many QBs have at this point.
  22. That was a good team. This Hog team lost to an Oklahoma State team with 3 wins. I’m not interested in y’all’s mental gymnastics. I already said I’m along for the ride, I’m just disgruntled is all. My disgruntled meter is elevating watching another team drive on UGA, something we couldn’t do without personal foul calls.
  23. I enjoy the surly gaslighting after a sloppy win like this. Everyone and their momma knew if Quinn played the 4thQ like he did the rest of the game, we were heading towards a loss. He put together a nice drive and attempted to truck a third string Hog DB. Cool. This season is what it is. I’ll tag along.
  24. I don’t know about Aliens, but the history of humanity and earth gets really murky around the last ice age. “UAPs” were documented back then as well.
