Will Howard was better than he was tonight. Why do I care about the quarterfinals?

Riley Leonard and Will Howard performed better than Quinn Ewers in the semi finals. The only QB in the semis worse than Quinn was Allar.

Sorry if has addressed earlier 

not having a short yardage  package 

is on sark.  It is asinine that a off guru doesn’t have a short yardage package to score from the one yard line

You can tell sark was scared of the OSU goal line defense reputation. He didn’t get in on first down and started calling plays like we were on the 40.

 

Indeed, but we could have had 4 chances to QB sneak 1 yard with Arch’s tree trunk power legs churning. Yeah we would find pay dirt 95 times out of 100

Sark the offensive genius who can barely score 14 points in any big game we have. Next year will really show if it’s a Sark or Quinn problem

Spoiler alert: it’s Sark

Same place he’s been all year. Would you fucks stop asking this question?
Ummm but he was on the field earlier in the game on a 4th down call and he ran it. Why not bring him in there?

He's fucking not. We've won big games under Sark.  OU twice, at Bama, aggy, 2 playoff games.  His 2 playoff losses could easily have been wins.  We're close.  Fuck... I really hope Arch opens things up for Sark next season.  A run threat QB with a great deep ball.  If the defense doesn't take too big a step back and we add the right offensive pieces, we're right there. 

Those OU teams sucked ass. Alabama was an amazing win. His 2nd best win is likely at Kansas State in 2022 given how poorly we botched the 2nd half vs ASU and that Michigan couldn't complete a forward pass.

QB. The difference between our offense and those Alabama offenses comes down to the QB. 

Tua and Mac Jones were elite college QBs. You put them in our offense and I bet we are national champions this year. Casey Thompson (ass), Hudson Card (ass at Purdue), and Ewers (above average QB with major limitations). 

Now, that comes back to Sark. Find an elite college QB like you did at Alabama.

There is a bit of me that's having that lingering doubt that Sark might be our James Franklin. Good enough to win a lot of games but not so much when it's the big game that could lead to postseason glory. He needs to un-Mack Brown his ass with Arch next season because he's looking a bit like 2001-2003 Mack right now. That 2nd down pitch call is going to haunt me until the Spring Game.

I don’t think there is any doubt he had 2023 OU PTSD during that sequence. 

I knew we were in trouble when the first down run got stuffed. For whatever reason, whether it’s personnel, play style, Sark, whatever….this team just hasn’t been very good/efficient in goal to go situations. I was sitting there nervous our OL was going to get enough push.

The pitch play was horrible. I 100% understand him not wanting to just pound it up the middle again but literally anything else but tossing it a RB catching it on the 9 yard line in that situation.

It would haunt me less if he straight up just said it was a bad call. The fact that he doesn't recognize that is almost as infuriating as the call itself. Hopefully, some time off helps with that reflection. Otherwise, he is a guy that needs an ex-coach permanently attached to the team as a consultant to point these things out to him

I was responding to someone saying Sark just needs an elite QB to win a championship. Will Howard isn't an elite QB. Neither is Riley Leonard. Yet one of them is going to win a championship. Because OSU and ND have better coordinated offenses than Texas.

Ah I misunderstood. You’re correct. But an elite Qb wins with this team this year imo.

He has not proven himself to be a money play caller when it really counts at Texas. He can whiteboard the fuck out of anyone and depants the Floridas of the world with razzle dazzle shit.  But two years in a row we’ve had 4 shots in the redzone to play for a natty and he has shit himself both times. He’s our coach, ride or die, but you’d be forgiven for having a little doubt about his ability to win the big one as HC.

1st down was the right call. Then it went to shit.

2nd down should have been a play action boot with instructions to throw it away if it's not here. 

Then pound it 3rd and 4th down. If they stop it then it's a 7 point game with more than 2 minutes and they have the ball on their own goal line. 

I was saying this shit before 1st down. It's not hindsight.

Spot on.

If I can get him to relinquish play calling duties are you up for it? Seven figures man.

All He has to do is look across the field tonight. Day even talked about this during the press conferences this week how letting go of playcalling helped him focus on the team overall.

Totally agree. I'm hoping Sark learns from this. It seems weird to say that Sark is killing it as a head coach and punching himself in the dick as a playcaller.

Yep that's what it comes down to. 2 years in a row in the same exact situation and you come up with 0 points combined. Terrible play calling both years.

I actually think AFTER the shit show and it’s 4th down - you consider the fg and then play to shut them down and get the ball back with a chance to win with a TD. 4th and 8 isn’t really doable there.

Ohio State lost their All-American center to an ACL tear against Michigan, and are now playing for the national title.

Everyone is dealing with injuries, this is a silly conversation to be having.

ND had two o-linemen making their first starts of the year against Penn State and were missing their best DT. Penn State had to shuffle their o-line mid-game. Texas was probably the healthiest semi-final team.

He needs to hire a goalline specialist who can help him figure out not just the pesky short yardage goalline plays but in general plays in the red zone.

his identity is wrapped up in it. at this point, you'd also have to wonder what aspects of his coaching might suffer if he isn't calling plays.

Right that would have been preferable to what he did. My point being I'm not sure he learned from his mistakes and we are demonstrably better. We absolutely regressed on the offensive side which is his "wheelhouse"

I don’t even think he has to relinquish it entirely but he certainly needs some kind of support or someone that he respects enough to check him. Or maybe just someone to help him design a more effective plan overall in the red zone.

I assume it would be like Urban Meyer - he'd hire someone to run his offense. Lane Kiffin doesn't call plays for Ole Miss, but it's his offense. My hope is that Sark would be removed enough from the play calling that he could help problem solve when things aren't working. Though you're probably right, he doesn't sound like he's ready to give up play calling.

The red zone play calling was bad.  But, in fairness, if we run it between the tackles 4 times and get stuffed, the *exact same people here* are losing their minds about how you can't do that against Ohio St, blah, blah.

Look, the offense underperformed the second half of the year.  It was also missing three running backs and it had QB1 and WR1 playing hurt, linemen were going down, etc.  Go look at the box scores from the first half when we were healthier -- 30+ on Michigan and OU, and 50+ on everybody else.  Then we got beat up and it ground to a halt.

As for going out in the semis two years in a row, some of y'all seem to think that's some kind of a failure.  Well, Ohio State has been consistently excellent for like 25 years, right?  They have two titles, maybe about to be three.  They have a shitload of near misses.  Maybe it's just really hard to finish the deal?  Like maybe all 4 of the final 4 teams are really freaking good, and expecting to win the whole thing more than 1 time in 4 is being unrealistic?

Sark has us where we need to be.  Next year, Arch and CJ are gonna light up scoreboards.  We are winning at least one of the next three national championships.  It's coming.  Y'all chill.

Yep…. 100% this.     We’d be sooooo much better off under Tom right now.  Or was it Burnt Vegetables some wanted?   Or Chip Kelly so flopped at UCLA.

Ohio state playing with backup center and LG because the kicker the starting LG out after the starting LT got hurt.

Fuck it, I’m drunk. I’ll say it. 
 

His recovery history from alcoholism is his biggest problem. He’s too lenient and forgiving when it comes to second chances because of how he got his second chance. Some shit he lets fly doesn’t cut it if you want to win titles.

The same problems all year.  Stupid play calling in critical situations and not able to get TDs.

 I think having running qb will change things and why I was on the Arch train.  However I'm very concerned that Sark won't get help with a competent OC even if he still calls the plays. He can't do it all.

Sark gets credit for the great  culture but our two year turn around is due to our NIL.  Reduce the NIL in half, and we aren't making the finals on coaching alone.  This is not a well coached machine (except the D).

Lastly, fuck those dog shit Ohio St jersey wearing bitches.  I hate their fucking fans.

nah I'm actually fine. but last game and this game and both georgia games showed some serious faults that need to be addressed and fixed or he can fuck off. we are in an nil era. we had the talent to win. we didn't have the coaching. 

you tell me we hold ohio state to 21 offensive points and I'm telling you we win. 

unless our coach sticks to his script

or Saban, or McVay if he wants to look for another guy thought of as an offensive genius, that somehow at a young age, is able to reliably teach what he wants out of his offense to others and have them run it.

Could have FB Dive'd it 4 times and even if you don't get it the Buckeyes are at their own 1 yard line.  Potential safety or you're getting the ball back with plenty of time on their side of the field.  But nah, we'd rather run some long developing outside runs against an elite defense.  Don't know where the idea Sark is some genius playcaller ever came from.  

He’s not. Never was.

As much as Herman’s pigheaded stubbornness was infuriating, sometimes you need that sort of mentality.

Remember the 4th and 1 against Georgia in the Sugar Bowl? Herman said "fuck it, we are running it straight ahead four straight times and we're going to get into the end zone if it kills us". And that's what we did to win the game. 

Do we need to go through the list of Tom Herman's WTF moments at Texas?

It is long.
