  1. I’ll take it. Officials had no idea live, advantage Horns….
  2. He’s down
  3. Token?……..
  4. The roller coaster goes down, the roller coaster goes up.
  5. Apparently they need the crowd to show effort
  6. E-F-F-O-R-T……….L-E-A-D-E-R-S-H-I-P……
  7. To tell you how much I didn’t pay attention to San Jose State this week, I had no idea the former Navy coach coached there
  8. Even the game thread wasn’t ready 😁
  9. I need this season to start having less of a 2011 feel. Effort please….
  10. Trying not to overreact…..Trying not to overreact…..Trying not to overreact…..
  11. Pass the rock, and don’t stop. Need Arch to gain confidence even if it’s against a patsy. You can take him out and get the backup some reps, but don’t be worried about playing nice by not running up the score. If you get anything out of this crap matchup it needs to be “get well” game
  12. Hey, is there a game today?……here….in Austin?…..
  13. I’ll always be here for the Longhorn games, even the patsy non-con September games, but no one should be expected to be overly excited for such games. One of them, maybe two, but never (3) such games
  14. The September college football non-conference slate needs an enema as usual….
  15. At this exact moment in time, I think it’s a fair conversation granted we all might be singing a different tune 2 months from now after Arch has gotten more reps in meaningful games as The Longhorns starting QB
  16. Off topic, but any signs of the elk rut yet? Heading to Estes P. last week of September
  17. That was good stuff. Thanks for posting
  18. I got in late. Did Sark comment on the WRs struggling to get separation?
  19. Especially on those short 5-yard crossers
  20. UPDATE: I’ve read several game analyses of the Ohio State game. Sounds like our WR’s absolutely struggled to get separation, and Texas didn’t go very deep into their WR rotation. Now it could be that Ohio State’s secondary and scheming were elite, but it’s definitely something to watch going forward.
  21. Read some game analysis from several sources. Sounds like our WR core did indeed struggle to get much separation in the game and they didn’t go very deep into their WR rotation so this is a legit concern granted Ohio State coverage and scheming could prove to be elite.
  22. Pressure is a very real thing for all QBs, and fair to say, more so for Arch Manning than most……..but dealing with that pressure and performing is also part of the job. We’ll see how this progresses.
  23. I will be very curious to see/hear a breakdown of WR performances in the Ohio State game since the live broadcast really doesn’t allow or a good assessment of this position group off screen
  24. Well, OP pretty much said it. We’ve got a solid month (3 games & a BYE week) that offers zero opportunity to measure and assess this team’s much needed progression after their week 1 performance, granted it was week 1…..on the road….against a defending champion top ranked team. San Jose State, UTEP, & Sam Houston State are what they are so pretty much nothing can be gleamed by performances in those games. That next opportunity will come the first week of October at The Swamp. It’s easy, and appropriate, to consider that repeatedly we’ve seen team quality week 1 to week 2 historically jump considerably. It’s also true that something was very wrong with the offense in The Shoe yesterday be that the shortcomings of a still inexperienced starting QB under enormous pressure, a coaching staff that stuck to a conservative game plan too long, or possibly even that our starting WR group has taken a step back compared to the heavily transfer portal-fed groups the past couple of years. There are a lot of possibilities to consider, but for now all we can do is wait for the SEC schedule. Right now I see a lot of possible futures on the table, and they are all over the map from outright disaster to early growing pains give way to true contender. But though we all like to opine, some quite strongly, none of us know a damn thing what to expect anymore than we did at 11am Saturday afternoon in Columbus. But these next few weeks……don’t get too high and don’t get too low.
