  1. Brooks was give a 3.8 pass pro grade vs OU with 9 pressures allowed. Not even sure how a 3.8 is possible. Could not find Hutson's pass blocking grade, but overall he was 54.6. I am pretty confident saying it was shitty. You have to factor that in. I believe there were 25 pressures on 27 attempts. 78% comp is nice, but the 0 turnover worthy plays was huge in that game considering the pressure.
  2. That was a hell of a performance vs OU. He was under constant pressure in that game. He was really good in that game. He was shitty vs UK.
  3. this is the dichotomy of Arch Manning. He misses the easy, but makes the hard. He is 7th according to PFF in Big Time throws in the country.
  4. I would not disagree with that. It reminds me of that 1st year with Sam offense. Feels like on any given play there is an 80% chance of failure, but its hard to pinpoint where that problem will come from. The offense has no rhythm or confidence. I kind of think OU is an outlier (rivalry game). The offense is completely QB reliant, and it feels like everyone is waiting for someone else to make a play.
  5. He is going to get worn down over the course of the season. He could beat up already. It just a nightmare environment for any QB. His consistency is the biggest issue, but hard to be consistent when you are the most pressured QB in the SEC. His upside is obvious, just have to see if he can get close to his ceiling. Offense is bad because of Sark's gameplans, OL, and Arch. I think the biggest reason is the OL, if they cannot clean up the A and B gaps this year the offense will continue to struggle. Need Sark to realize the issues and make OU game plan the norm, not the exception
  6. Did a guy with 7 starts miss a few guys with 45 pressures in a game? No fucking shit. there isnt a QB that would not miss guys in that environment. People say stupid shit like "missed guys when he had time". No shit, when QBs face pressure like that they get sped up. Like I said gameplan matters. Pressure rate was higher vs Florida than OU, but both were bad. The results were as different as the game plans. Turns out emphasizing the short pass behind a bad OL (4.2 aDOT vs OU) is better than the long pass (17+ aDOT vs Florida). Manning definitely needs to improve, but he is getting next to 0 help.
  7. I thought he looked decent vs Florida. I dont think many QBs would have looked much better facing 45 pressures. Lot of those pressures are coming from whiffs at the guard and center position, which is just death to any QB. How much do you miss your whipping boys Hayden Connor and Jake Majors now?
  8. He definitely needs to improve, but this is a stat with 0 context. HE has played the #1, #5, #21, and #25 defenses according to FEI. That is a beat down of a schedule for an offense, based on current DFEI rankings.
  9. in @BurntOrange&White defense, he is the most consistent poster on this board. His position is always the Qb sucks.
  10. This is different team. It easy to try to draw comparisons to last year, but the environment is completely different. Sark opened the year trying to run between the tackles with PA shots. You can saw the difference game plans make in back to back weeks. Florida the ADOT was over 17 and it was 4.2 vs OU. The pressure rate was still insane. Texas is 128th in pressures allowed. Arch is dead last in the SEC with pressures on 41% of his drop backs. They were 28th in 2024. The numbers are even worse when you watch game and discover most the pressure is coming A/B gap, which were very solid last year. Its pretty amazing Texas has only given up 13 sacks. I cannot imagine what the offense would look like with Ewers behind this OL, though I doubt we would see much of him if he played behind this OL. He probably would have died by the Florida game. Keep in mind Ewers was the 11th most quarterback-faulted pressure in FBS. Manning is in the 90th percentile with only 11.8% QB-faulted pressures.
  11. Even worse is going empty with motion, it like a sign that says Manning is running
  12. It is week 7 and it’s crazy to say maybe the biggest difference between 2024 and 2025 is Hayden Connor.. I never thought I would say that
  13. Going off memory, but Florida was reported to be ~18 yards and vs OU it was 4.2
  14. it bigger than that. Sark would have taken 1 perfect recruit and made him into a 7th rounder. Then the other would be in the transfer portal after failure. That isnt on the resume of a great offensive mind and QB guru like Sark. Not to mention the Manning family approval gave Sark the endorsement he needed. Manning failing at Texas is not something I want to contemplate as a Texas fan
  15. He did miss 20% of this throws in that game. We all should have seen it.
  16. I dont think Florida was garbage. You face 35 pressures and that many hits. I would say OSU, UTEP (by far the worst), and Kentucky. I think some of it is game plan. I think Sark had terrible game plans for Florida and Kentucky (they were eerily similar). Though we are not in the playoffs last 2 years with this OL. It is 2 fold, Manning is in his head and he is in a much worse environment
  17. he damn good in that game. I think this is all mental with Arch. Only thing I can come up with was the pressure of hearing how great he would be all summer screwed him up. That all fits when you watch him. You have a QB pressing in a much worse environment than last year.
  18. here is the odd thing about Manning. He makes incredible throws every game. Guy in face and he will rip a 20 yard throw to his 3rd option. Then he will be 5 minutes late on a 1 read throw or miss a gimme throw by 3 yards. I cannot understand him. Its the strangest thing I have ever seen. You could make a highlight tape of Manning this year and have people believe he is hte best Qb in the nation. You could make one and have people believe he is a back up on a 2A HS team.
  19. If Texas goes 4-1 in the next 5 games, there is very good chance Texas is in the playoffs. 4-1 means Sark figured out the offense and the media would fall in love with Texas again. This is not happening, but it is good to have a dream.
  20. Odds we see Caldwell this year are very high. Fact that Arch made it through 7 games this year is a minor miracle. Sam is the only other Qb I woudl even give a chance at startign 7 games behind this OL
  21. sunk reputation theory
  22. adjustments have never been his strength.
  23. I think right now Sark is own worst enemy. He spent the summer devising the offense for this season. That vision was built on faulty assumptions. He is now having issues with whether to run the offense he wants vs the offense he needs to run.
  24. This is stupid. Everyone has said Arch has clearly had issues. I think you are just doing the typical fan nonsense. You want to believe the offense will be fine with a quick change at QB. That is whistling past the grave. Anyone with any ability to honestly look at the offense can see there are a myriad of issues. Funny thing is you have guys in here last 2 years saying the offense wasnt hitting its potential blaming the OL and WRs. Those same guys are saying it is all Arch now but cannot admit that the talent is drastically lower this year. Dont be that guy
  25. Offense is young and inexperienced. You would hope that guys like Campbell and Wisner would step up. The defense has no such void or lack of options.
