  1. the whole thing is mystifying. It is not RPO. I agree Texas rarely runs read option and it would be odd to trap the end on a read option. I think Quinn just spaced on the play. If Wisner spaced, you would think it would be a fumble, but that is pure speculation. Very strange play
  2. Sark can be frustrating at times. He loves to get creative with motions and formations vs top level opponents. It can disappear vs opponents he doesn’t deem worthy. I would expect a lot of motion vs OSU. I hope to see empty looks designed to get OSU to declare coverages and motions back into more standard looks. Sark is capable of stealing a quarter with his game plan. That is kind of an unknown for this game. How good is that opening script
  3. Texas defense should be able to slow the OSU offense. Key will be stopping the run and getting OSU in obvious passing downs. Freshmen Simmons is pure speed off the edge. I think Donovan (assume he is still at OT) will struggle with him like PSU game. Texas also has athletic DTs that can give your guards issues I have fears about the offense. Quinn is can be one of the best passers in CFB when he has clean pockets and knows where to go with the ball. When defenses make him move or think, shit can go sideways fast. That probably sounds familiar to you and your QB.
  4. So Dorbah did shoot the gap and went under Goosby.
  5. You have to start from the beginning to get an idea of what happened. Dorbah is an Edge. I am guessing he shot the gap on a stunt and beat Campbell to the spot (purely a guess). Possible Goosby whiffed on him, instead of getting an arm on him to help Campbell. Campbell is beat by speed as his shoulders are parallel to the sideline. All he can do is push him laterally, he can not stop him from getting up field. This is about leverage and positioning, not strength and toughness
  6. You need to watch this play. Everyone is blocking. Moore is way down field blocking. Whoever is on the left sideline at WR is blocking. Perhaps the WR is running go on the right, but based on everything else more likely he is just running him off. Dorbah ignores the Rb and goes straight at Quinn. The run actually has a chance. There is no pull to throw option here. It’s hand off or pull to run.
  7. I wonder if Majors is still dealing with an injury. Probably not a coincidence that he left the Clemson game injured and looked off in the next game.
  8. Not sure DJ matched up Dorbah every often, unless Dorbah moved inside. I’ll take your word that it happened in the game. I didn’t call for Texas to move to a spread passing offense for the season. I was commenting on this game. Asking a QB to throw when the opposing team cannot get any pressure and their DBs are struggling to stay within 5 yards is a good thing. Now that probably won’t work with OSU, because they can rush the QB. Everything is opponent specific
  9. Looks like RPO with a screen up top. Quinn just chose to hand it off
  10. I thought this was RPO that should have been handed off watching it live. You can see the OL run blocking. Looking at it again it looks like straight run. Not sure why Quinn didn’t hand it off. This look like just player error
  11. Time of possession deficits happen in 2 ways. Offense is scoring “too quickly” (my favorite fan critique) or punting too quickly. The issue vs ASU was the later
  12. This is all nonsense. Most people understand who Quinn is. He is very good in clean pockets when he knows where to go with the ball. It’s when the environment is gets muddy, he degrades fast. Nobody thinks Quinn cannot throw a football. He would be my 1st pick of college QBs for a 7 on 7 team. 7 yards thing is an issue. I said it earlier J Brooks has been missed. That is the biggest difference in the run game. RB is Texas’s least talented position. They do struggle to maximize runs. When Texas gets good blocking too many times it is 7-12 yards.
  13. It is what it is. ASU had a better game plan than Texas. Couple guys had a bad game. You can try to fight it or press your advantage. There is no argument the offense moved the ball better when they spread ASU and picked on their secondary..
  14. This is why Herman got fired and OSU lost to Michigan this year. You can smash your head into a wall or you can press your advantage.
  15. Last 4 games for Texas according to Babers. 90% completion rate, 30% explosive play rate, and 13 yards per completion out of empty formation.
  16. He had easily been the best QB in the playoffs. I still don’t trust him, but you have to give him credit
  17. Irony of this post is the offense started clicking when Sark spread ASU out and abandoned the run.
  18. Strong to say Oregon doesn’t have a pulse. Believe they were SP+ top 10.. You may not consider them elite, but they certainly have a pulse
  19. Blue having a big run or 2 would be huge. I would say J Brooks is the guy Texas misses the most from last year. He was money 1 on 1 vs a safety. Even last year the run game was inconsistent down to down. The difference this year is when it’s blocked well Texas is generally getting 7-12 (OU and Clemson games being the exception). Opposing safeties are winning those 1 on 1s more times than not. Brooks would make those 20-30 or hit his head on the goal post.
  20. Depends on the game. You watch the Big 10 Championship and you say damn. Then you watch SMU game and it’s damn in a completely different way. That is why this QB class is considered so poor. None of these guys are consistent
  21. Etienne is good. He has missed 3 games and been banged up for a handful of others. He would definitely start for Texas. That said Texas has run the ball better than Georgia this year.
  22. I see someone claiming this is the worst QB class in 30 years. I am not sure that is true, but it’s fair to say it’s pretty shitty
  23. Which makes the turnover rate favor Beck. Plus Quinn has more fumbles. Numbers are pretty similar. I think the intangibles favor Beck. He is the better athlete, less around him, and has a terrible OC. It’s not a hill I would die on though. The order on Milroe, Beck, and Quinn will come down to workouts, interviews, and if someone just falls in love with one of them (can totally see that with Milroe “I can fix him”). Quinn does have 2 games to make a statement though
  24. I know prior to playoffs Quinn turned it over more than Beck. That is with a much better scheme (imagine going from Monken to Bobo), WR corp, and run game (especially with Etienne missing time). I don’t think either are very good post snap.
  25. the ball is definitely under thrown and catchable. The later being the important thing. The former will now probably result in 2 pages of mental masturbation on whether it was 1 yard under thrown or 1.015 yards under thrown
