  1. Agree that he’s definitely over thinking. That 4th and 3 play where he rolled to his left, he had Parker wide fucking open for an easy pass and catch that gets us the first. He stares at him for like 2 seconds just scrambling until all the defenders surround him, then proceeds to run the other way and throwing away from his body to the middle for a pick. Just stupid decisions. That’s an easy single read play with a wide open WR and it’s like a 3 yard throw on the short side of the field. These are simple things. I have no doubt he can make that throw… him choosing not to is what is confusing. If I’m Sark, I’m limiting everything for him. Run the ball, designed QB runs. If we need to throw it, give him a single read, if it’s not open scramble. If you don’t get the 1st down, punt or take the 3 points. We need to focus on just getting 10 yards a drive without a penalty. Let’s just start there and try to build on it. Letting go. Try to operate this offense with all the misdirection and reads is a recipe for us to lose lots of games in SEC play. Take the ball out of his hands, run it, bleed clock, rely on your defense, punter, kicker, and just try to get 1 more point than the opposing. This season is cooked. At this point just try to salvage it and play like Michigan and old bama teams played offensively.
  2. So I was fully on board and gave Sark the benefit of doubt after issues last year and the first two games of this year…. Because frankly, he had earned the benefit of doubt with where he has taken our program. With that said, I’ve done a 180. I’ve watched every Longhorn game for 20+ years. Like many of you, I’ve watched what a bad offense is. This is a very bad offense. One of the worst I’ve seen and we lived through the Gilbert, Swoopes, Heard, Case McCoy era. We don’t run the ball well, we don’t pass the ball well, we don’t block well, we are penalty prone, we have no creativity on offense, we turn the ball over, we cannot convert 3rd/4th and short, we lack any identity, and we don’t display any confidence when playing. This is not a quick fix. I fully expect every game to be a dog fight. Watching last night’s press conference I think it’s also hitting Sark that he’s going to have to hit the panic button and revamp our offensive philosophy and game plan. We need to be a poor version of Michigan 2 years ago. Basically run the ball, bleed clock, take the points in anyway we can, punt the ball and try to pin teams deep and completely pray that our defense can hold teams 14 or less. We are definitely the worst offense in the SEC and arguably power 4 teams. Absolutely embarrassing. Longterm, it’s year 5 and this is the shit sandwich we are in. This offense is worse than what was handed to sark when he got here. He needs an OC and he needs to be the HC and focus on how to better the team rather than trying to put together a game plan between all his other responsibilities. I’ve also seen enough from Arch to know that dude is mentally weak and that never changes. You either have “it” or you don’t. Find him a landing spot at another program and move on after this season. This roster is too talented for the shit we’re seeing. I wasn’t expecting us to be as good as last year but I really don’t see how we are going to beat UF, UGA, ou, Arkansas, Aggy. Hell, I think Vandy waxes us if this is what we display on Saturdays. Forget playoffs. Let’s just try to get to 8 wins. That would be an accomplishment. With that said. Entire coaching staff outside of defense gets a fucking F for their offseason coaching. Which unit looks good on offense? None of them. These dudes have 2 seasons of success and maybe decided that recruiting 5 stars meant they could coast. What a waste of an elite defense.
  3. I can’t wait to see this offense run his super cool plays when they can’t even execute simple plays. this is going to be a long year…
  4. Shit why stop at Ryan Williams (who is sucking btw) and DK Moore! We should have also gotten Jeremiah Smith, Julio Jones and AJ Green! If only we pushed for them, they’d all be longhorns. On a more serious note, Ryan Williams wouldn’t visit Texas regardless if Texas had a higher NIL package. Moore gave Texas a silent only to commit to Oregon. Texas had a ridiculous NIL package for him. He simply wanted to go out of state. Also, Wingo and Moore were not some 3 star recruitments. Both went to the wire and they were against the likes of UGA for Moore and Tenn/Ohio State for Wingo. Our fans have gotten spoiled with multiple 1st/2nd round NFL WRs the last few years. Keep in mind, Golden wasn’t even starting and didn’t really come on until halfway through the season. Let these guys gel and figure out their timing/chemistry before you start demanding that we just get all the #1 WRs every year. Also, there are currently four 5 star WRs prospects on this roster. You’re confusing underwhelming with inexperienced.
  5. Dude is balling out. For those that have forgotten, Livingstone was offered recruited hard by LSU, aggy, and Texas and ran like a 10.7 in high school. Dude is a legit WR with track speed. He’s also tall with long arms. He was the only one making plays against Ohio State and those were NFL DBs he was playing against. While CTJ’s predictions and monikers were great offseason humor, you guys better put some respeck on his name! Can we get a wreath fund together to get a custom “jaggy” jersey for CTJ to wear in his suite?

    Florida Gators

    They have a very talented roster. They just have a complete utter moron of a head coach. He is their Charlie Strong.
  7. I get what you are saying but you also can’t get a bunch of transfers and expect a well oiled machine. FSU and Ole Miss have proved that. I still think this is one of the most talented teams we have seen at Texas. I also realize they need time to gain experience. Hopefully our talent can come through despite the mistakes until the team hits their stride. I can see us running the table and I can see an 8-4 team. Let’s see how they work. Also, it’s hard to take much of anything from this game and the next few. We are running plain vanilla offense and not going to show much on tape. But you can very clearly see the faults. Drops, penalties. These are things that can be worked on. Fix the easy stuff and this team can do damage.
  8. People need to recalibrate their expectations. The preseason #1 ranking was all based on hype. This team reminds of me the 2006 team with Colt as a redshirt freshman. Full of talent and NFL players but green and inexperienced. I see is dropping 2 more games unless we see big improvement. The good thing is we have a whole month to work on these things and many are fixable. Arch needs to work on touch on his balls and some of these WR drops with stop. He is throwing rockets when he needs touch. OL has to stop with the penalties. Simmons has to stop with his penalties as well. I expect more of the same with good moments and a wtf moments throughout the season. This will be a totally different team back half of the season. I just fear the mistakes will cost us more games.
  9. It’s a scrub opponent. They are working on their punt block. They are going to work on a lot of things. Take a chill pill. Fuck these threads, this place turns into Texags on gameday.
  10. Long read. So rewatched the game. I spent way too long today listening to most of the post game chatter etc. My thoughts below: 1. Ohio state has some dudes on defense and Patricia showed why he has two superbowl rings as a DC and once led the nfl in scoring defense. He had Arch in a blender with disguising his coverages. He took away everything deep and would give man looks only to switch to zone at the snap. I’m sure us having no film on him gave him a huge advantage. Caleb Downs showed why he was the best defensive player in all of college football. Their secondary is the best in the country and they definitely reloaded at edge and LBs. #8 for them was a monster. 2. Given everything said above, I thought our OL played fantastic. They were creating holes for the RBs to run through. We’re going to pound the rock this year and we’re going to be able to do it against UGA as well. 166 yards rushing was not a bad rushing stat and I imagine we’ll see a similar number again Georgia. I expect us to run over 200 yards as a team against our other opponents. We’re going to win a lot of games if we can do that. I thought they did very well in pass pro. Arch had all day to throw multiple times in that game. Oh yeah, we have a badass TE, don’t forget Endries 3. This defense will carry this team. Make no mistake, Ohio State is fucking talented on offense and they’re going to be aggressive against every other opponent. We held the best WR in college football to 4 catches and 43 yards. We held them to 83 yards rushing in a game where they wanted to run the ball to the tune of 2 yards a rush. Elite defense. Oh yeah, welcome to big boy football Grayson Littleton. You’ll be starting at corner soon buddy. 4. Our punter is a badass. Ohio state was pinned multiple times and special teams gave the offense the ball near the 50 on multiple occasions. Good defense and good special teams will be what we will have to lean on for our future road games. 5. Sark. People are really shitting on the guy. He had multiple man beaters and plays to beat the cover 3 they were playing. Arch had guys running wide open only to not make the right read, make the throw too late, or make the ball uncatchable. I liked the gameplan heading into this game for the most part. Cons: 1 . Sark. As much as I thought he did some great things, he’s gotta figure out redzone offense and he needs to let Arch loose. Arch plays much better when he’s allowed to run. It took him an entire half to figure that out. These are fixable things. 2. WRs. Completely disappointed in these guys. Tate made a spectacular catch to win that game. These guys are going to have to make some plays against elite secondaries. I know Arch didn’t do them any favors but they didn’t do any for him either other than Jaggy’s badass catch. 3. Gilbeau. Dude got burned again. He got burned in the semi’s and I still have a sour taste about him not making that block on the Barron pick against UGA. He’s a liability at CB. 4. Arch. Dude was rattled. I’m going to give him a pass for this game due to the circumstances but he needs to learn to put some touch on his throws. Quinn made layering throws look so easy. Arch can’t rocket every throw. He has to anticipate his WRs break into their routes better and put some touch on the ones that need it. Overall, he made most of the correct reads, missed some open WRs, had some great throws and a lot of bad ones. He’s going to be good, I have no doubt but he’s got a ways to go before we worship him like VY. Overall, I feel very good about this team. Play that game in a neutral field and I’m not sure we don’t win that games. Hell we should have won it given we out rushed them, out passed them, had more 1st downs, and a better 3rd down conversation rate. I watched Bama get taken to the woodshed, Clemson struggle at home, and I’m watching Notre Dame struggle and about to lose to Miami. There are no elite teams this year. We have as good of a shot as anyone. We knew this was a young team. 8-9 games in, we’re going to be a very different team. If we can make it past UF, UGA, ou with 1 loss at most, I feel we win out and make a deep run in the CFP. Hook em!
  11. Yes, let’s fire the coach that has close to winning it that is recruiting lights out. We should have fired Mack after 5 years too. Complete utter idiot you are that has no grasp on reality. Done arguing with you. Go bitch some more.
  12. We’ve won 1 championship in 50 years. So yeah, you should settle for us being a top 5 team dumbass. And be happy we have a coach knocking on the door of a championship. He’s 49, I’m willing to bet he wins one sooner than later.
  13. Jesus you’re a fucking moron. That entire list just proves that it’s not easy beating top 10 teams. There are 4 coaches on that list with a winning record. Day had a losing record until this last game. Sark just beat the shit out of Dabo, the dude that just lost at home to Kelly, another guy with a terrible record. Maybe you’d prefer DeBoer that is likely going to get fired at Bama. Same dude that just got butt fucked by FSU and ou last year. Just stop man. I get why most people have you on ignore. If you can’t enjoy where Texas football is right now and what this program has accomplished, then go be a bandwagon fan for UGA. When this team is playing in the playoffs again this year, go fucking root for the other team. The entire sport respects sark and what he has done. There’s a reason we were preseason #1. Also a reason why Vegas had tOSU favored to win this game. It’s because they are a fucking elite team playing at home. Go settle rooting for aggy.
  14. lol, per some YouTube video. Kirby Smart is the only active coach with a winning record against top 5 opponents. So you’re not going to find a list of coaches that beats up on top 5 teams. Kirby and Day have been cheating pre-Nil with stacked rosters and it took them 8 years. Day was on the verge of being fired a few months ago. Get out of here comparing Sark vs Franklin, a guy who has what, 1 fucking win against a top 15 team. If you’re going to shit on Sark for losing to DeBoer, Smart, and Day… then give him credit for winning big games against Bama; Michigan, Clemson, and kicking our rivals asses more times than not. Oh yeah, he did that taking over a mess of a program. Here is the list of top college football coaches that are getting calls if a major program opens up. Please name me who you’d like to hire and who has their program currently in a better state. Smart Day Dabo DeBoer Franklin Lanning Freeman Cristobol M. Riley Kelly Heupal Rhule L. Riley Who are you picking from that list that isn’t Smart, Day, or Dabo? Because you’re bitching about things those other guys haven’t achieved either.
  15. He’s the only coach with back to back play off runs to the semi’s and has won 25 games the last two years, won a conference title and played for another. If your biggest gripe is that he lost twice to two national championship level coaches at two programs that are at the top of college football, then go be a UGA or Ohio state fan because outside of those two, there’s only 1 other active coach with a ring on his finger, Dabo… and Sark just waxed him a few months ago. A lot of people suck against those defenses… it’s why those programs have championships. We took one to over time and were a missed FG from beating them and we had our chances against Day but fell short. Sark is right there and I’d rather bet on him than go hire James Franklin or Josh Heupal. Or maybe you’d like to hire Dan Lanning that got a beat down from Kirby his first year or just got boat raced by Ohio State a few months ago. If your idea is that there is a long list of coaches that are going to consistently beat those programs, then name them. Otherwise shut the fuck up because you sound like a dumbass. The dude has built one of the best defenses in Texas history, has us at the top of of recruiting, is churning out NFL talent, has a stacked roster, and is a few plays away from playing in the national championship. I sure as fuck believe he can do it. It took Kirby and Day 7-8 years to win it. Sark is in year 5 at Texas. And he didn’t walk into a loaded roster like those two did. Some of you must have been born yesterday because we’re not that far removed from losing to Kansas at home. And now we’re bitching that we couldn’t beat Bama, Michigan, and Ohio state all on the road in consecutive years. Fuck off.
