I mean- maybe?  Maybe not. Maybe go fuck yourself gif. They should have been beat by Auburn and Florida but for some ref fuckery. They got beat by Bama about like we got beat by Ohio State. Last year we outplayed them big time in the SEC title game. We had more guys get drafted last year. Our ratings in recruiting and portal are pretty much the same. If they are better than us (or the other way around) it’s marginal and not the reason they beat us was the point I was making. The coaching, home field, luck or refs would probably be more likely to be the cause of a loss for us than “they are better than us”. 

Refs didn't help at all. That's BS. In the Auburn game, the SEC reviewed 11 calls, 9 were inaccurate and 4 went against UGA. It wasn't as one sided as our haters try to make it.

All calls have same impact? Didn’t think so. You can have a great team and also admit that your coach gets you the benefit of the whistle more often than not..

Short passes have the exact same effect on clock and game control. We just need to get short yards so that the defense has to respect the short game, whether it is by running  with a RB, FB, WR, TEs screen, RPO or QB dives/runs, we have options. The line looked better against Vanderbilt. I think that Wisner and Baxter will have some success, now that we are throwing short.

This has to be the game plan. Georgia is very good at preventing explosives

They do play off and will leave short and intermediate routes open. Their drops will also leave room for Arch to scramble. Key is to be efficient.

Georgia is 12th in the SEC in redzone TD% allowed. Texas is 13th on offense. This is the moveable object against the resistible force. Georgia is tied with OU for last in turnovers caused in the SEC (Texas is 3rd in turnovers lost).

Bad vs bad.  And Georgia turnovers lost vs Texas turnovers forced? Bc I’m betting on a sixer for the good guys.

Much like last year, Georgia’s front 7 will abuse our OL. I expect Arch to be under heavy pressure all night even with Kirby only rushing 4 most downs. This gives their DBs carte Blanche to jam the fuck out of our receivers.

Sark will abandon the run game too early and we’ll be forced to rely on Arch’s legs too much. Lots of deep shot incompletions. I foresee a major regression in the offense much like last year in Austin when we basically couldn’t gain a fucking yard for an entire half.

Serious question.  Why in the world do you watch Texas football?   The next comment you make that isn't full of negativity will be your first.

Texas is 4th in SEC in turnovers gained (15, 3 are tied at 16). Georgia is tied for 5th in turnovers lost with 9.

I would caution the arch needing to scramble or run as an effective way to keep the offense going. If he got hit dirty by miss st then you can bet your lubed up butt cheeks Georgia will hit him dirty. If he has to run a lot then as our resident asshole says, light your cigarettes boys.

Jesus, this thread is a beating.

This is a hard, but winnable game.

It's going to all come down to which Sark we get, and if he's willing to keep doing the shotgun/short passing game we've been doing for the past 6 quarters. We do that, instead of trying to get cute, and we've got a good shot if the defense balls out and the refs don't fuck us. We get the other Sark, and it's over before it's begun. We'll see. 

Any of the over the top doom and gloom is the same few posters who've been squatting to pee on these boards for better part of a decade.

Sark already has the first drive scripted

1st and 10: Wisner up the middle for loss of 1

2nd and 11: false start on DJ Campbell

2nd and 16: sideways pass complete to Wingo for 2 yards

3rd and 14: sack/incompletion

What value do you get posting on this website? Honestly. You don’t engage in any actual debate, you don’t seem to read and absorb formation, you just show up and drive by negatively no matter the situation, incapable or unwilling to engage in thoughtful discussion. 
 

So what do you get out of it? Because the answer seems pathetic, no matter what it may turn out to be…

Also, I’ll open a $100 bar tab for you to show up at a bar and watch the game with @immamac. He’s looking for sports bar buddies. Maybe live streaming for the rest of us.

I was just about to type the same thing. A win over Georgia legitimizes Texas to a lot of people who have already written us off. 

Beating Vandy did the same thing, but to a much lesser degree. It showed people that Texas is a good team, but it didn't show that we're at the top of the sport. Beating UGA will give us the bona fides that voters need to put us in the CFP. Even if we lose close to A&M (God forbid), a win over UGA will probably be enough to get us over the hump. Gotta beat Arkansas obviously. I don't know if beating A&M gets us into the CFP if we lose to UGA. It's too easy to dismiss a win over A&M as a rivalry game in Austin that has it's own particular hoo-doo that won't translate to other games. 

Honestly though, if I have to pick a loss I would rather lose to UGA and beat A&M. Consequences be damned. 

Hell, beating Georgia would legitimize Texas to a bunch of Texas people who have written Texas off, me included. I still see 8-4. I don't even expect Saturday to be close. Texas winning this game would be fucking stunning, and I'd absolutely take it. 

Irrespective of Saturday, the playoffs, or anything else, Texas needs to beat Arkansas and ATM both, for rivalry reasons. The offseason is better when that happens, social life is better, life is better.

The problem is we haven't actually done that against a non OU good team since 2023.  Praying this is the way. 

You can p-hack your way into whatever analysis you want, but this is disingenuous at its core. First, removing OU from the outcomes is fucking dumb. Second, Michigan went 9-4 last year after winning a title and beating OSU. We did that to them in their house in blowout fashion and they walked out of that stadium with their proud heads hung low. You didn't say "great" or "elite", you said "good", and Michigan in 2024 was a "good" team. Texas owned Clemson most of the day and won by 2 touchdowns. That's a 10-4 ACC Champion in the waning days of its dynasty era. That was a good team and whining about their small and ineffective comeback doesn't change any of that.

In short, your position on this is bullshit.

How many times has Sark actually started a big game with a run? 

Game 1 vs Georgia: 

Play 1: 9 yard pass

Play 2: 3 yard pass

Play 3: 4 yard pass

Play 4: 8 yard Wisner run

Play 5: -1 pass

Play 6; 2 yard run

Play 7: incomplete

Game 2: 

Play 1: 6 yard pass

Play 2; incomplete

Play 3: 22 yard pass

Play 4: 19 yard pass

He is almost always pass heavy early vs high quality competition. 

Play 5: sack

Play 6; 2 yard run

Play 7: interception

Clearly pass first in the 2 Georgia games. Only annoying thing is the Sark habit of running on second and long

vs Bama: 

Play 1: 11 yd pass

Play 2: 2 yard Pass

Play 3: 4 yard run

Play 4: 11 yard run from Ewers (scramble from Pass play)

Play 5: 2 yard run

Play 6; incomplete

Play 7: 2 yard run

Delp  and the other TE (can’t remember his name) are really good players.  Like as good or better than Stowers who we couldn’t even cover when we knew he was their best threat.  We can probably slow their run game down but who believes our LBs can cover their backs and TEs?  So this is probably not a game for Sark to “take the points”.  Need to have the red zone offense be unfucked for a change.

Yep it's over already.

 

BTW this game will be decided on the OL.  which should be obvious but heard a stat saying Texas is like 123rd against pressure, and Georgia is like 99th in pressure rate.

So neither is good at either thing and whoever is better will probably determine the game.

This is where I am.

It's perfectly fine to think your alma mater and favorite team you've cheered on for decades will lose a football game, and for the loss to not even be close.  We have yet to play a complete game against a quality opponent this season (great defense/shitty offense against Ohio State; vastly improved offense/below average (though ref assisted) defense against Vandy).  We're playing on the road against the best team in the SEC over the past few years.  Yes, I think there's a chance that Texas can win this game, but it's substantially low, and I think there's a greater chance the result is closer to the Georgia regular-season win over Texas last year.

January 1, 1949: Georgia captain Floyd Reid shakes hands with Texas captain and fullback Tom Landry before the 1949 Orange Bowl. Landry rushed for 117 yards and scored on a 14 yard touchdown run to lead the Longhorns to a 41-28 victory. Landry would go on to a legendary career as head coach of the Dallas Cowboys.  Georgia quarterback quarterback John Rauch would later become head coach with the Oakland Raiders and Buffalo Bills.

Given the play of the defense and secondary the last 3 games the defense maybe a bigger worry to me (though its impossible to predict either unit from week to week, so take it with a grain of salt). For all the shit Bobo gets, he is doing a great job. 

Georgia is #2 in OFEI in the nation (Vandy #1 after lighting up Auburn and Texas)

This is a second half offense. Once they adjust to what you are doing, they will dissect you. 

Stocktons 1H vs 2H split

This is a very efficient offense, but oddly they struggle to produce explosives. DB are going to have to be much better tackling. Branch is used in all kinds of screens and short passes. If he breaks a tackle, he is a threat to score. The last 3 games Texas has given up 70% completion, 8 TDs, and 1 int.

Lawson Luckie is in concussion protocol but it sounds like they expect him back anyway. Elyiss Williams is a true freshman that is coming on and will be the next big thing at TE for Georgia. Generally speaking, it doesn't matter which one you were referencing, they're both really good to go along with Delp. I have faith in Texas' LBs to cover their TEs and backs from an athleticism perspective, but not from a scheme perspective. Whatever criticisms of Mike Bobo people want to offer, and many are justified, the guy knows how to get his TEs and backs open. 

Georgia also has an annoying white guy 3rd down back, named Cash Jones, I think, and he's someone that Texas is likely to magically let open just when we need a stop. I feel like Georgia always has a guy like this.

Georgia is very beatable this year so my assumption is this will be a game that comes down to 1 play . Sarks been on the wrong side of these games in his time here so not expecting a win but I will be the least surprised Texas fan if we can pull it out.

This better be a game to take the points, especially as long as we are within a score or two and there is plenty of time on the clock.  We need to keep this close and anything can happen.  The worst thing we can do is forgo points, get stopped, and play from further and further behind.

I'm not optimistic for a win but I do expect a close game.  Going 4 and out is a recipe for disaster on the road against a team as talented as GA.
