Looking forward to the junk defense Sam Houston put in during the bye week that will limit us to 14 first half points

Texas Football 2025 - Careening Towards the Abyss
Hookem2147 replied to closetojumping's topic in Football
His inability to layer the ball or know how much to put behind his passes is the biggest issue I see right now. The pocket is rarely going to be perfect and you have to play football on the move sometimes, so the footwork/arm angle stuff is never going to be pristine, but he seems unable to determine when to put air under the ball and when to throw a fastball. He throws a 1000 MPH fastball to Clark on a sideline on the short side of the field. Then, on the wheel to Wingo and post to Livingstone, he has no feel for how much air to put under the ball. -

I ain't worried about Simmons in the least. Nothing these first 3 teams have done in the passing game has been conducive to edge players getting a bunch of sacks. He'll be fine. -
Arch Manning: Doing his best JAG impression to fool scouts
Hookem2147 replied to LTtxfan's topic in Football
I'm assuming that is another PFF number, so I'll take it with a grain of salt. The OL ain't great, but it has been adequate in pass protection, and I rarely see Arch running for his life. If anything, he has created some self-pressure by bailing too early on reads. -

I think the idea is that Milwee and Flood are supposed to help formulate the gameplan and be the lead voices in the room when Sark has to go to a defensive meeting or whatever. I've heard the analyst they promoted to assistant QB coach (Bimonte) is pretty involved too and is who sits in the box as the eyes in the sky for the offense. Maybe it has changed, but several years ago, I heard a second-hand story about a game where Sark was on the headset asking the offensive assistants for recommendations/suggestions and was basically met with crickets. -

We had Casey Thompson playing behind a bad OL with 4 fingers and Marcus Washington as his WR2 and we had a better offense than this. There are JV QBβs at Austin Westlake who could make some of the throws Arch is missing. I donβt care how bad Caldwell was at Troy, you canβt convince me he couldnβt throw a 8 yard curl route to a receiver standing stil. -

Gerry said this morning that this is catching everyone in the building by surprise, and it is not what they saw in practice throughout the spring and fall. -

I saw him on the field early. He had a pressure on Nelson on 3rd down when UTEP was backed up in their own end zone. Didn't see him much in the second half. -

Did OUβs offensive ineptitude hurt their ability to fix things? Itβs an NIL world and about 90% of conversations and decisions these days center around money. -
Arch Manning: Doing his best JAG impression to fool scouts
Hookem2147 replied to LTtxfan's topic in Football
There isnβt a playcaller in the world who could work with what Arch is offering right now and make it look good. -Simple swing passes to RBs? Overthrown. -Quick hitches to the perimeter? 2 feet out of bounds. -1 v 1 with a receiver having 3 steps on a safety? Overthrown. We had to take the ball out of our own QBβs hands in the second half and spam 4 yard runs against UTEP over and over. That was the most depressing moment for a Texas offense since we started a right tackle in the Strong era who had a nickname from the coaches about being afraid of contact. -
Anyone who wants the glass half full can rightfully point to the fact we had 470 yards and should have still covered the spread despite all the times we stepped on our own dick. I donβt see any position or aspect of the offense as being completely inept like OU last year or anything like that. Itβs just a lot of little things adding up right now and we only need to clean up like half of it to properly complement this defense.

Massive line swing. Spread is down from -41.5 to -40.5 today.
