  1. Texas is 4th in SEC in turnovers gained (15, 3 are tied at 16). Georgia is tied for 5th in turnovers lost with 9. Defensive havoc in SEC Offensive Havoc (allowed) (Texas better than I thought here, Georgia is very good)
  2. Georgia is 12th in the SEC in redzone TD% allowed. Texas is 13th on offense. This is the moveable object against the resistible force. Georgia is tied with OU for last in turnovers caused in the SEC (Texas is 3rd in turnovers lost).
  3. This has to be the game plan. Georgia is very good at preventing explosives SEC defensive explosivity They do play off and will leave short and intermediate routes open. Their drops will also leave room for Arch to scramble. Key is to be efficient.
  4. Hopefully we dont find out and Texas goes 3-0, so this is just brain drain.
  5. Interesting response. Never said losing to Georgia would be make it more likely or that Texas should lay down. I just said IF Texas went 2-1, you want that big win over an undefeated A&M team. That is pretty much just logic and the way rankings. Losing late is never good.
  6. If Texas goes 2-1 in the next 3, the best path would be a close loss to Georgia and a win over an undefeated A&M team.
  7. I hope I am wrong, but Texas is not going to come out and run the ball on Georgia. The only scenario I see Texas running the ball would be something similar to the Bama upset in Tuscaloosa. Sark dials up a gameplan with a lot short passing that keeps the offense on the field early. Georgia has lost a few DL, so I am not sure how deep they are up front. If Texas can stay on the field, there is a chance later in the game they can get the run game going.
  8. This is obviously a pessimistic take, but I cannot say it does not have its merits. Texas is a 5.5 pt dog on the road. The volatility of Texas performances on both sides of the ball has been amazing this season. If both units play closer to their ceiling Texas has a legit chance to win this game. Either play anywhere near their floor and everyone here will be hammered by the 3q to numb themselves from the pain.
  9. I would not compare OU and Georgia. They are different defenses. OUs reliance on movement up front makes them uniquely vulnerable to OZ. The rushing stats the last few years is evidence of that. I think this is going to be a Sark game. His gameplans tends to have high volatility. When he dials it in Texas is very good early and we hold the remote with white knuckles late. Georgia has been a slow starting team all year. They average the least amount of pts in the 1Q (6 vs 10+ in 2/3Qs). They allow 7.4 pts (vs 5.1, 4.4, and 4.3 later). Getting an early lead in Georgia would be huge to take the crowd out. Sark needs to find those couple wrinkles early and score some quick pts.
  10. Why the fuck would you visit Camden?
  11. This is true, but do you think that is a high bar?
  12. Georgia and OSU were elite. Good college players go in the 6th round all the time. That is only 1 of the tackles. The one you were talking about was dealing with knee issues, some think chronic knee issue was why he left early. Not surprising that he went 6th round. He did get a 72.6 pass vlocker grade and a 70.8 grade as a run blocker. He would be a welcomed addition to this OL.
  13. Georgia defense might be one of the worst Kirby has put out there, but it is not a bad defense. Kirby went after Flood's pass pro concepts last year with great success (Florida mimicked it this year). We are using less slide protections since then, but we shall see. One thing people are not mentioning is the Georgia offense is #1 in OFEI.
  14. If you dont like PFF, then use the NFL draft. Majors is on a roster also (Eagles). So you think the OL sucks. PFF thought they were good and 4 of the 5 are on NFL rosters. Should we believe you or PFF and the NFL?
  15. CAm Williams was injured at the end of the season. The OSU game was on the staff. Should have played Goosby over an injured Cam. Your opinion of "good" is ridiculous. Michigan 2023 was great. Texas OL finished top 5 in pass pro. They were very good in pass pro. Solid at outside zone, but once teams took that away the run game was over. That said the running game was 3rd in teh SEC in yards per attempt behind Bama and Auburn, who had mobile QBs, in conference play (no padded stats). Saying that was a bad OL is ridiculous. We are seeing what a bad OL looks like this year. Pretending this OL is anywhere near last year's OL is laughable.
  16. Golden might not have started out the guy, but it came apparent he was the guy by mid-season. I dont think the WR are bad but Texas may not have a WR that is a top 10 WR in the conference.
  17. Texas does not have an obvious #1 WR. There is no Golden or Worthy on the roster. There isnt even a Mitchell on the roster currently. Hopefully, someone steps up and becomes that guy.
  18. Mosley is probably the best right now and he is the least athletic of the bunch, but this is WR group is a step below last couple years. Lot of solid, but nobody that is an obvious #1 WR
  19. OL was not bad last year. This is just wrong. Little banged up late at Tackle, but you cannot compare last year's OL to this years. Pass blocking is just another level. Sark has moved to a progression quick passing game and Manning is very good at that. We have seen a lot less of the immediate pressure the last 5 quarters, but they are no where near as good as the OL last year (Baker is really trending up, I dont think people are giving him credit). Its the reason people are coming out saying Arch now looks like what they expected.
  20. I fully expect to see 12 personnel vs Georgia, just to mess with everybody.
  21. It's Kentucky. They killed Texas underneath all game and held on to the ball. Kentucky hasnt been that efficient all year outside of piling up passing stats in a blow vs Tenn. I did not say the secondary is worse or even at the same level as the 2023 group. I just said it closer to teh 2023 group, than the 2024 group. Basically, this defense is probably not elite this year. Still damn good, but I think you can attack the secondary. Probably later in games as the pass rush tires
  22. Texas was healthy vs Florida and Kentucky. Both hurt Texas with the pass. The implosion vs Vandy was likely due to injury (coaches and players are still culpable here), but I think there we are seeing signs this defense is closer to the 2023 defense than the 2024 defense. Both were good vs the run. 2023 defense was not great vs the pass. 2024 defense was legit at every level. The one big positive for this defense vs the 2023 is the pass rush. That will mitigate some of the issues.
  23. Looked like some type of Cover 2 (Tampa 2). Technically, that is not Guilbeau's man. I believe it was Williams' man (though I didnt go back and look who was at safety). That said Guilbeau should carry the WR, if nobody shows up in his zone (nobody did). This also goes to football IQ. It is bad not to carry a WR in the 1Q, but its kind of WTF when you dont do it in the 4Q with a 10 pt lead with under 4 minutes to go. Who cares if you give up a catch in the flat in that situation.
