Quinn "La Joya" Ewers - The Man The Myth The Mullet, Now Starting for the Miami Dolphins
That was a Freshman Sam. He also led the come back vs USC, when it seemed over.

Quinn "La Joya" Ewers - The Man The Myth The Mullet, Now Starting for the Miami Dolphins
One factor for dual-threat guys is the hits accumulate over a season, especially one like Sam that was used as a battering ram. Your body takes a pounding and stats can mirror that over the course of the season.

Texas 2025 Roster
Special teams factored into that also. K Rob was a great special teams player. Blue doesn’t play on coverage teams. Having versatility is huge for late draft picks.

Texas 2025 Roster
Tough for him to stay. Simmons has passed him up, so he would not start next year. Edge is set. 1st off Colin Simmons is a freak. He was on a field where there were supposedly 21 players going in the top 3 rounds in this year’s draft and was the biggest bad ass on the field. Burke and Vasek will battle for the other starting spot. Good to see Vasek playing and making a play. Got some young talent that will have to step to back-up Simmons.

Are disappointed they couldn’t get the push or weren’t given the opportunity?

Quinn "La Joya" Ewers - The Man The Myth The Mullet, Now Starting for the Miami Dolphins
Elhinger, Ewers, tomato, tomato. they did it differently, but kind of similar guys. QBs with flaws, but good college players. You could argue for days over which was better, which is likely given this thread

Texas O-line talk
He was pretty poor vs ASU. He is better in pass pro and Cam is way better run blocking, but that is a expected comparing a RT to a LT

Texas O-line talk
Really bad play. Seen OnTexas hint he may need surgery on that knee after the season, so I am not sure how healthy he is.

Texas O-line talk
Downs and Ransom were very impressive. I would see a 1-2 yard and think an OL just got whipped and you would one of those getting up from the bottom of the pile. They got downhill quick and they can really tackle, especially Downs

Quinn is Quinn. Time to move on. quinn has his flaws. He was a good QB, not great one. He never lived up to ridiculously high expectations, but VY and Colt are the only modern QBs to hit that level for Texas

Not sure it will matter, but I forgot Nansen was on Chip Kelly’s staff at UCLA. That cannot hurt

Quinn "La Joya" Ewers - The Man The Myth The Mullet, Now Starting for the Miami Dolphins
It was things like QBR and PFF that had Quinn as one of the worst rated QBs in the playoffs. this is true. Those QBs ran into top 4 defense (by DFEI), so I dont get the comparison. I generally hope Quinn plays well. This is going to be the first good defense Texas has faced in these playoffs. The 3 worst defense in the playoffs were Clemson, Boise State, and Arizona State (in that order).

2024 Week 17 - Cotton Bowl CFP Semifinal Texas vs Ohio State
Couple things here 1. Take Orji out of the equation and Michigan ran it 39 times for 140 yards. That is 3.6 and that was boosted by a big late run. Sark will never be that patient with the run and no fvckin way will Surly be that patient. 2. Game play was a major reason for that. Ryan Day went full retard in that game. He went out to try to end the all the talk that OSU isnt as physical as Michigan. Inside Zone after Inside Zone. OSU is not going to be that stupid again.

Just have to stop the counter with 6 men in the box and take away the 1st read for Howard. Not sure he has been forced to go to his second read in these playoffs. Do that and you give Simmons a chance to hit Howard. Ryan Day does not usually make a many in-game adjustments. He may be the Texas MVP of this game, if Texas takes away the counter. Quinn has to hit passes outside the hashes. OSU pass defense is built to take away the middle of the field. CBs are the weakest part of the OSU defense. OZ is likely dead in this one. The Edges are NFL guys and they usually stack a LB over them. The caveat is Banks and Williams might be able to move them 1 on 1. Sark needs to have a pivot from OZ.

Texas is kind of good. They won 13 games this year, basically playing 2.5 quarters of football in each game. If they play 4. watch out

2024 Week 17 - Cotton Bowl CFP Semifinal Texas vs Ohio State
more I hear people talk about this, I think it comes down to 1 thing. If Texas plays consistent good ball, they win this game. No 3Qs disasters, take care of the football and play clean (limit penalties). Hoping being an underdog and media telling them they cannot win this game, leads to the first game Texas plays with focus for 4Qs

All time Texas QB Ranking Discussion - 2025
Getting a major win in those days was tough. It was tougher just 1 year ago. I know people will disagree with me, but I do not put ASU or Clemson in that category. They are playoff wins, but vs double digit underdogs. It know blow outs happened in BCS and prior playoffs, but it was rare to see games where someone had massive talent advantages. Its become more NCAA basketball like.

2024 Week 17 - Cotton Bowl CFP Semifinal Texas vs Ohio State
All good. I fully expect the run game to be mediocre at best. Would love to see 4 per carry, but that probably only happens if you get a 30+ yard run in there. OSU runs a lot of inverted Tampa 2. Not loving the deep ball with Quinn's propensity to throw moon balls and NFL safeties in a 2 high. Have to find ways to get players in space and they have to make someone miss.

I think this is a game, where explosives will be at a premium. 8-10 plays drives vs either defense will be tough sledding. One reason I would like to see more Wingo and Blue (Blue in the passing game). I say that even with the fear of Blue fumbling.
