Man watching those Ewers highlights, I got reminded of how many really high level throws he made he made yesterday.  Threw to some tight windows and to the credit of the WR, they made tough catches.

There are times when he shows you that five star ability. Like those last three passes yesterday.

I know people on here are tired of me but Quinn is a different QB when Sark lets him loose and opens it up. We see it game after game. Slow developing play action and passing out of 12 personnel? Quinn looks like "holding the offense back" Quinn. Open it up, keep him facing the play, and spread the field? Guy looks like Michigan Quinn. Deep ball is still ugly but he was roping those other throws. We absolutely should be running out of spread formation and forcing teams to handle the run game while forcing their defense to align sideline to sideline, but Sark loves his playbook a little too much. So here is to watching us trot out against Ohio State in a bunch formation. Making sure that everybody on the defense only had to run 6 yards to the football. Cheers.

We will need 8 full quarters from Quinn and the offense to achieve that. I hope we put it together when it matters most.

That would be a pleasant surprise. Consistency is not a word one generally uses to describe the Texas offense. ASU secondary could not cover anyone. I do not think we will see guys consistently open like that again.

I wouldn't be so sure. Ohio State has faced very little in the way of decent offense. Go look at their schedule. Gabriel threw for 300 both times he played them. The only other solid QB was Allar but we know how they play against good comp. I don't think they have been tested much like everyone was accusing us. They were also held to 21 or less by every good defense they played this year. We have a chance if we can score 20 and our defense holds up.

Quinn in last five minutes of game & overtime:

11-14 
161 yards 
2 TDs

Both TD's were perfect throws. Because the first OT TD throw saved the season, less has been said about the throw to Helm, but it was truly perfection. 

How do you like that, Sam Leavitt? 

The two point conversion throw was awesome too, didn't end up needing it, but could have been critical.

2nd time was 300 yards of garbage. OSU safeties are arguably the best unit in the country. The CBs can be had. The one is very grabby. The biggest difference is OSU is going to get pressure with their front 4. They have NFL guys also. That was one reason that I said Quinn would play well vs ASU. I didnt think ASU could get pressure on Quinn (I also thought Texas would run on them, that was wrong). I dont think Texas needed to run vs ASU (No pressure and not much tight coverage).  They will need to at least hit on a couple runs vs OSU. Not so much down to down success running vs OSU. Its when things are blocked up, the RBs have to hit the correct hole, and make a safety miss. Needs to be 20+ yards, not 7.

Probably because the damn broadcast came back to the game as Helm was catching the ball so no one knew what the fuck was going on.

Truth!!! Infuriating!!

Until these last few games Ohio state has been struggling getting home with their front four.

They are #3 in sacks/game. Sawyer and Tuimoloau have 24 sacks off the edge.

outside zone is the staple of his offense and what everything is built off of.

Historically that isn't remotely the case for a Sark offense. It is inside zone his offense typically revolves around.

I wonder if the offense reverts to that next year

Oregon as shown was the 9th best defense in college football, again not exactly trash.

I don't believe in any big10 defensive rankings. Look at their schedule and the offenses theyve faced.

You can run more RPOs off IZ and it doesn't expose your QB as much. I hate RPOs off OZ.

I'm convinced QE is better suited to a spread offense. Bad things happen when he turns his back to the defense. We have to stop using those slow developing plays, they are ending more drives than yards they produce.

I don't think we ran one RPO yesterday did we? I might have been heavily influenced by alcohol.

A lot of play action but I cannot remember any

Odd we haven't been doing much of that. Quinn appears to be pretty good at it.

I don’t think he is super comfortable throwing over the middle of the field. It’s probably why you don’t see a ton of traditional in breaking routes. Thinking about all the tipped balls and tight window throws. Doesn’t really seem like his strength.

I’m fairly certain the first offensive play was a RPO

It was. Pretty sure  the sack was one also. I am sure there were more. Sark has run a lot more play action with Quinn, than RPO

Leonard running all over Georgia defense just shows how good a QB who can run is vs a defense like that. Leonard has 65 rushing yards. Their RBs have combined for 53 yards so far.

They have 206 total yards. That's not why they are winning.

You're right, the QB extending drives with his legs have nothing to do with the game. 

They are taking advantage of their opportunities. You know. Making their kicks. Punt return for a TD. Jumping on fumbles. Unlike us who celebrated instead of blocking on an INT. Rolled over top of a fumble and didn't get another two. Missed two kicks. Dropped a TD pass.

 

They are also playing better defense instead of sitting back and playing coverage, they are sending the house.

If we held GA to 10 points. Made our kicks and caught our TD passes we win going away. ND about to win this game with less total yards than Quinn threw for.

How bout just execute? It's weird how you guys excuse all the dumbassery we do. Horrible defense on QBs with mobility. Dropped passes. Missed kicks. Horrible special teams. Guy picks off the QB and needs a single block for a TD but we are too busy celebrating. All these same issues are on display every week and you think we would be saved by a QB who can't throw but can run? If Riley Leonard was our QB we would've missed the 3 kicks, not gotten any of those turnovers, and our defense would be allowing Stockton to move the ball up and down the field on us.

hold up homie. I agree with you and BO&W. I think its a little bit of both but you guys arent giving an inch

I think we see Sark fully  unload the bag for this game as this is game will likely be the one that crowns the champion. The other side of the bracket should not scare anyone playing/coaching in this game. 

No you won’t.

I am just saying the outcome is the same because all the other things ND did to win we suck at. The ND QB accounted for 110 yards total.

Jesus Christo, this is a good outcome.  I don't want to have UGA in the way.  I'll take ND all day long, if we get past the poisonous couch-burning nuts.

Also beating ND for a championship would perfectly book end the Texas is back curse.
