If Quinn plays the whole next game we have 0 percent chance of winning.  Some of yall just need to be real and accept reality.  

This is honestly pretty fucking pathetic. Quinn is legit the reason we won today.

Like any QB, the best version of Quinn is the one in rhythm. The two drives to set up failed FG's really helped get him in rhythm, and luckily he stayed in the groove in OT. You could see him getting more comfortable timing wise on each drop back. 

Sark has been guilty several times this year of not getting QB's in rhythm, and it's another area where he needs to do some self scouting during the off-season.

Sark's opening script is usually pass heavy to get Quinn in rhythm. 

The better idea is to run more 2 minute hurry up offense. We should particularly do it to start the 3rd quarter moving forward IMO.

Sark was stubborn today about having balance, even when it was clear the run game was not working. I think he was really counting on the size advantage winning, but they were quick and disruptive and we never found the recipe. 

I actually thought the pass play call on 2nd down while up 8 was appropriately aggressive for the situation, but Quinn made a bad throw. No idea what was going on elsewhere on that play, but he either picked the wrong guy or threw the wrong type of ball. Possibly both.

I would avoid the post route with a safety over the top like the plague if I was Sark. It’s not high percentage throw from Ewers and arguably his worst.

I didn’t like throwing deep on the 2nd and 4 with 6 minutes left but I also wonder if Bond was the primary read that play. They had Golden coming on an over route that looked open on TV.

I also would have hoped our 3rd year starting QB would know risking throws into double coverage in that spot is ridiculous. Hell, a sack would have been better.

Ewers made the plays when we needed him though.

Helm was wide open in the flat also.

I don’t see how you can blame the QB for third quarters. We typically out scheme pre-game, then always(?) get out-schemed at half time. It’s a structural issue 

Honestly I kind of blame him for the safety. I get it’s split second decision making plus adding in “oh fuck the ball!!!!” But he ain’t a fb, third string Rb, or current wr who played qb in HS. He’s a seasoned 5star three year starter: He caught it, thought he could look up, and launch that shit to the side line!

But I’ll freely admit I know shit about fuck and been drinking. This damn ending ain’t good for the heart!

we never got the run game going, ever

You can't get the run game going when there are more people to block than blockers. Also, ASU was undersized but quick and those slow developing wide running plays won't work. They played to stop the run and they did.

Yeah I do. He’s a first rounder or Day 2 pick. Did you say he’d be a 5th rounder?  lol. 

lol is right.  he's gonna have to get pretty fucking lucky to be a 5th rounder.

That's a tough ask. Yes, he's a 3rd year QB, but let's emphasize the split second aspect of it in this case.

The INT was a back breaker and on him. Fortunately, he came through when it was all on the line in 2OT and salvaged the win.

I haven't made a bet since I was in high school.  and I don't want to publicly fleece you, either.  but he is not getting drafted in the first three rounds.

The safety was not a bad decision. Other options include possibly an incomplete pass thrown at the ground but with six defenders closing in who knows if there was a lane to make that pass incomplete at the feet of a TE, so the other options are a fumble or INT for a TD. Taking the two was arguably a good decision.

The biggest problem is sark designs well, scripts early well, and has the plays at the end obviously to get it done. Just masterful. But mid game he makes bad in game decisions, too much slow developing crap, and puts the offense behind the chains when rhythm is what we need the most. He won’t go pace when the offense is clicking and he won’t run the ball when it’s working and we need to run clock. I just don’t think he’s very good mid game on the fly.

I’m sorry @mwaadeebdoest except truth yet….  If the offense doesn’t miraculously impove, there’s no way unless we get defensive TD’s we win.  If you think elseway your looking at it with orange colerred glasses.

He absolutely does both of these things at every opportunity. 

Against Kentucky and Arkansas. He literally called pass plays at the end of regulation that made it worse when the OL was finally manning up and making plays.

Quinn played great today. Won the game. Will do wonders for his confidence going forward. Let’s fucking go.

I respect your critical views here. This is a discussion forum, after all. 

To counter the criticism, Quinn did what he had to do to win it on TWO consecutive drives. Not sure how a kicker misses two consecutive kicks, the second being a 37-yard kick. :(

Quinn is my boy and I will always support him 100% but you already know that.

Hook 'em Horns!!! We're still kickin' it for the National Championship, baby!

I don’t think an ass kicking next week is a foregone conclusion our D will keep us in the game and if sark can call a game, OL doesn’t false start 8 times, and we can fucking block for the RB we might be ok.  Yeah QE will have to ball but it’s not inconceivable.

Our previous 5 runs before the pass went for 6, 1, 3, 4, 0. Our longest RB run of the day was 7 yards. Quinn Ewers had our second longest run.

Look, the pass wasn’t the correct call in hindsight but we weren’t exactly running at will and I’m sure he was expect his 3rd year starter to not throw into double coverage.

Quinn actually won the game since auburn couldn’t. He did not play bad. Yeah the int and deep balls but he won it. So if that’s the case, it’s sark and not ewers we should be hating on. He got out coached. And tried so hard to lose the game.

It did not look like what you said. But you thought we should have been running the ball at the end of THIS regulation?  If so, we attempted to run, on the last drive, TOO MUCH.  It was idiotic. 

There were two drives in the 4th quarter where his play calling was idiotic. One QE bailed him out with a 3rd and 10 pass completion. The INT was on a second and 3. Yeah man run the ball there. Left too much on the clock, yada yada yada.

Will we have Cam Williams back? Goosby is capable but he gets penalized a lot.

I suspect a loss either way. But a win wouldn’t be totally surprising as we play up to our competition.

2nd and 3 with a 8 point lead when we needed to run the clock he threw an INT deep. Get the first down. 
 

3rd and 10 was direct because sark called shit screen on second and 10. Folks have been blowing up our screen game the entire second half of the season.

The false starts in the 4th putting us behind the chains were huge in forcing us away from the run to kill clock.

Quinn was fucking money at the end. He set the house on fire with that late interception but let his nuts hang like a boss while putting out the flames. 

This is the Texas quandary. From here on out a complete consistent Quinn will be needed to win. Everybody is now playing to stop the run against Texas and take their chances with the passing game.

Yeah that was not a good call or good throw there. The under route looked open but there was a man that peeled off on the deep throw. Hard to see whether it was open because by the time the camera panned the ball was already gone. The under looked like a throw that Ewers could make though. Over the short defenders and under the safety. We don't have big receivers. You cannot throw that up like that. Even if you rifled it in there your receiver gets decapitated. Look somewhere else.
