The rest he couldn't be bothered to try for.

I mean they kept 7 in to block. That only leaves 3 for routes.

I honestly don't know. For fun I charted us just to see how we produced when in 12 personnel. We ran 35 plays out of the 79 total in 12 personnel. Here is each one Manning 3 yard run for TD Wisner 4 yard run Wisner 4 yard run Pass 3 yard loss Screen pass 1 yard loss Baxter 10 yard run Baxter 5 yard run Shannon 5 yard penalty Baxter 1 yard run Manning 5 yard run Baxter 3 yard run Baxter 1 yard loss Livingstone 3 yard TD catch Wisner fumble 6 yard loss Wisner 4 yard run Wingo 1 yard catch Wisner 6 yard run Manning run 1 yard loss Manning incomplete pass Mosely 8 yard catch Wisner run for 0 yards Manning sacked 8 yard loss Townsend 5 yard penalty Livingstone 6 yard TD catch Manning incomplete pass Moore 21 yard TD catch Manning incomplete pass Livingstone 14 yard catch Arch incomplete pass Manning sacked 3 yard loss Manning 1 yard rush Manning run for 12 yards injured Baxter 9 yard run Mosley 10 yard TD catch So we gained 92 net yards in 12 personnel. The other 336 yards were gained in 11 or 10 personnel. Now this isn't to say 12 personnel doesn't have it's effectiveness. It does, but in my opinion we need to dial it back a bit.

This might be the best observation about Sark on this entire board. I am not sure why I didn't think of it. "Its like he is auditioning for something" is so spot on. Maybe thats just it. Maybe this dude is simply using his platform to audition for NFL jobs and has been the whole time. Makes perfect sense. Now I wont be able to stop thinking about it whenever I see him trot back out 12 personnel. Thank you for that enlightening. No bullshit.

100% accurate. I think the whole city of Austin was sucking Arch's peen and he maybe didn't study as hard as he should've. I think he can turn the corner but he's gonna need Sark to hold his hand for awhile.

My family is up in NY and I am down here in Texas by myself. So I did something I never get to do. I put the game on the 120inch in the theater room with the sound up high, and bitched about our performance in the game thread while sitting around in my boxer briefs. Not a pretty sight but I was comfortable. I was so busy bitching and posting that I thought the 3rd qtr was the 4th qtr. It was only when we came back from commercial that I realized we were still playing. Lol.

You know DFW, back before we joined the SEC I would always watch meaningless SEC games where the underdog would have Bama or some equivalent on the ropes only for them to completely fold and give away the game at the end. I would always shake my head and turn the channel. Now that we are in it we sure are having a good time taking candy from the toddler.
-
I mean it kinda makes sense if you think about it. Mannings couldn't run but knew the game front to back. This Manning CAN run but doesn't know the game for shit. Bizarro Manning.
-
Ewers didn't regress. He was far superior to Arch as a passer. He just looked bad running those slow ass developing plays behind that line that frequently had protection busts. When he got to spread it out he was always cooking. Truthfully, we just can't execute Sark's shit. We haven't been able to since he has been here. Some guys were able to out-talent the mistakes here and there but Sark's playbook has largely been inconsistent. That's why I was so protective of Ewers last year and that's also why I haven't been on the pull Arch train this year.
-
I know you aren't black, because this motherfucker spelled Kool Aid with a C. No black person would do that. 🤣 But y'all are dead right. The crazy part though is Sark has been in this situation before. If you remember he had Jake Locker and adapted to his playing style and what worked for him. He got him a 1st round grade too So he has it in him but for whatever reason he won't adapt.
-
That motherfucker loves him some TEs don't he? I just don't get it. Just more bodies laying on the ground for our RBs to navigate.

You are 100% correct. CFB was never better offensively than when teams were spreading the ball around in my opinion. I think what happened was some players got drafted off spread teams and had to adapt to the NFL style making them look like busts. So highly touted recruits started looking for CFB teams with more NFL concepts and here we are. What is your take on that Slacks? Why are we making offense difficult?
-
Lol. Of all the balls that got dropped yesterday this wasn't the one to bitch about. That ball was high and into double coverage. Parker jumped, got his legs clipped from under him, and saw his life flash before his eyes. Dude is a freshman. It would've been an extremely tough catch, but hey, at least he left his feet and went up for it. We should really focus our attention to the diva in the number 1 jersey. That's who we should be bitching about. 13 made a few tough catches yesterday. Meanwhile 1 is out there like

Hahaha. Yeah. Reading that back in the am hurt my eyes too. This what happens when I am typing really fast at 2am, and just trying to finish. Terribad. So basically Sark simplified the offense for Arch in the 4th. He changed from his usual convoluted route concepts, to simple, easy to read/execute routes. Then he ran those plays repeatedly in the 4th. That is what it seems like. I don't know why Sark hates spread concepts so much but everytime we use them the offense starts moving. All these kids come from this world, with all the 7 on 7 and such. Dude is just stubborn. We gave Arch basic, high school, Tony Franklin route concepts and dude was out there dealing.

Listen bros. Here is what I am going to say. Last year when we played good defenses like Georgia we looked completely inept offensively. Then there would come a point in the game where we would get desperate and Sark would start spreading it out and we would look like a completely different offense. Spreading the formations and running with more receivers cleans up the whole picture for the quarterback. If you are 4 and 5 wide, its hard for the defense to disguise what they are in. Further so if you are sending guys in motion every snap to make them declare man or zone. Last year when we played Georgia in the SEC championship Sark came out in 11 personnel or 4 wide and Quinn lit them up for 160 yards in 20 minutes. Then we settled into two tight end sets and we bogged down for the rest of the game. Well, take a look at what we did and how Arch responding from the end of the 3rd Qtr and on. 1st and 10 and we are in 11 personnel here(1 TE and 1 back). Us being in 11 personnel makes us faster because the TEs we are currently employing are slow. Take one off for another WR and routes get completed faster meaning Arch can let it fly that much sooner. State responds with a legit 3-2-6 which is a fucking mistake. Our line struggles with passing off rushers and our QB struggles moving quickly through his progressions. Now you just solved both of our issues in one fell swoop. Now look at the route concepts here. Two comeback routes on the outside. Easy to read. Easy to throw. A 5 yard drag for a hot and a 12 yard dig going the other way. Arch is superb here. Ball is out on the break. Not a G-damned thing the DB can do about it great ball! YTDown.com_YouTube_Texas-vs-Mississippi-State-Condensed-WIL_Media_uUf47YeX4o4_001_1080p.mp4 3rd and 10 and State is going to bring the house. We keep Wisner in to block and successfully wash down the defensive line allowing Manning to slide out to his left and buy time for these routes to develop. Yall should recognize the route combo. Its the same post with a dig combo we always run. Arch always fucks this up. The deep dig is almost always open underneath, and it's wide the fuck open here but it doesn't matter because Wingo is too fast for State safeties. It's double coverage and he still destroys their angle. When you see this you see why Sark had Wingo in there but damn it if dude doesn't fellate large phallus 50% of the time. Arch underthrows it a little as not to miss for a big gainer. YTDown.com_YouTube_Texas-vs-Mississippi-State-Condensed-WIL_Media_uUf47YeX4o4_001_1080p_2.mp4 . So here we are on the goalline in 12 personnel. We are going to motion Wingo to the boundary. Their entire defense is worried about Wingo, and both safeties shift to get a man over top of him. Sark just put their DB on an island 1v1 with Livingstone. At first when I saw this throw I thought it was late. But pay attention. The DB is in 13's hip pocket but Parker gives a little stiff arm right on his break that created space, and that's when Arch throws. any sooner and I am not sure it would be broken up. Beautiful throw by Arch and great catch by 13. Arch maybe could've thrown it 3 feet sooner at best. We max protect as we roll this pocket, keeping 7 in to block. YTDown.com_YouTube_Texas-vs-Mississippi-State-Condensed-WIL_Media_uUf47YeX4o4_001_1080p_3.mp4 We are in 11 personnel. We have a bit of a modified smash route to the boundary. Now the smash can be run a myriad of ways. Traditionally the inside receiver runs an out, and the outside receiver runs a corner. Sark changes this combo a lot but today the outside runs an out while the TE runs an arrow. The QB is reading the outside corner. If he is up he throws the corner route over his head between the corner and the safety. However, if he is playing off you rip the under. At the snap State makes it easy as they try to roll coverage to the field and Arch correctly takes the short throw. Now look at the pass rush. DJ's man beats him and comes completely free but Arch gets rid of the football so quickly that it doesn't matter. Normally Arch holds this ball looking for a deeper route and gets sacked. Nice work Arch. We had this same call on vs OU and he didn't throw it. YTDown.com_YouTube_Texas-vs-Mississippi-State-Condensed-WIL_Media_uUf47YeX4o4_001_1080p_4.mp4 3rd and 3. State is going to bring 6. Sark has a man beater on with Parker running the 5 yard drag. Arch correctly identifies the blitz but is just a touch slow getting this ball out. Regardless, at least he saw it. That's what needs to happen for teams to stop blitzing us so frequently. This would've been even better if Sark allowed the receivers to sight adjust. If Parker's man runs by him to blitz he should run a quick 4 yard hook. By crossing he ran himself right into the defenders in the middle. YTDown.com_YouTube_Texas-vs-Mississippi-State-Condensed-WIL_Media_uUf47YeX4o4_001_1080p_6.mp4 Sark is in his bag here. 11 personnel. We are going to motion Moore to the boundary which gives us trips to that side. A man comes with him which tells Arch it's man coverage. At the snap the TE runs up the seam carrying his man, but making sure to run outside the LB who is responsible for Wisner creating a natural pick. Arch hits him and Tre does the rest. Nice playcall by Sark. Again, this is the kind of ball Arch has to throw to beat the blitz. YTDown.com_YouTube_Texas-vs-Mississippi-State-Condensed-WIL_Media_uUf47YeX4o4_001_1080p_7.mp4 So back in 11 personnel. Remember that smash concept a couple plays ago where Arch threw the quick arrow route because the corner was playing off. Here is the same concept but the corner squats on the under so we just pitch it over his head. Pretty simple read that works against quite a lot of coverages. Why don't we run it all the time? We do. Arch is just dealing here. YTDown.com_YouTube_Texas-vs-Mississippi-State-Condensed-WIL_Media_uUf47YeX4o4_001_1080p_8.mp4 This next one is what Manning struggles with. Were are in 11 personnel. Sark is trying to isolate Wingo against a DB for a speed out that Wingo should win, especially with this much cushion. A few things about it. Yes, Arch is late on this throw and as you can see it allows the DB to recover and make a okay. But more importantly than that, Wingo runs a shitty route. He never stems his route(get the receiver to turn his hips) and just rounds the route off to the sideline. Then. Catch the fucking football G-damnit! This fucking guy. YTDown.com_YouTube_Texas-vs-Mississippi-State-Condensed-WIL_Media_uUf47YeX4o4_001_1080p_9.mp4 As yall know we run this fake screen all the time and I don't think it ever works when run with a TE. Takes too long to develop. Two receivers and it happens way faster and you can get the ball out faster. YTDown.com_YouTube_Texas-vs-Mississippi-State-Condensed-WIL_Media_uUf47YeX4o4_001_1080p_10.mp4 2nd and 10. State gives us a 3 man rush. Manning probably had more time to throw but checked it down quickly. I love to see it. It's 2nd and 10 and if you miss here State is bringing the house. YTDown.com_YouTube_Texas-vs-Mississippi-State-Condensed-WIL_Media_uUf47YeX4o4_001_1080p_12.mp4 So you remember that speed out that we just ran with bitchass Wingo? We flip the play and run it with Moore on the right. Same fucking defender. Number 13. As Moore runs up the seam he makes a subtle move with his feet making the DB step a little inside before me makes his break and look at how much more separation he gets. Easy pitch and catch. YTDown.com_YouTube_Texas-vs-Mississippi-State-Condensed-WIL_Media_uUf47YeX4o4_001_1080p_13.mp4 Remember this play earlier in the qtr? We motion Wingo to the field side this time. A defender comes with him and we hit Tre on the rail out the backfield. This time we catch them in a blitz and get a chunk play. Now we've run two plays twice in this Qtr. YTDown.com_YouTube_Texas-vs-Mississippi-State-Condensed-WIL_Media_uUf47YeX4o4_001_1080p_14.mp4 Enders wide open at the bottom of the screen. Missed him. Overall his decision wasn't bad, he just has to throw this before the receiver clears the first defender. YTDown.com_YouTube_Texas-vs-Mississippi-State-Condensed-WIL_Media_uUf47YeX4o4_001_1080p_15.mp4 Remember that speed out? Yep, we are about to run it for the third time in the quarter now. Except this time it's going to Livingstone. He fires upfield and runs the defender out of view, Nice easy pitch and catch even though he slipped trying to make a play after he caught it. YTDown.com_YouTube_Texas-vs-Mississippi-State-Condensed-WIL_Media_uUf47YeX4o4_001_1080p_16.mp4 So what coach did was go largely 11 personnel and run the same few plays for Arch. Probably something he executes well and likes. Arch responded it well, and because of that we will be right back to running double tights and slow developing plays. And for you Quinn haters, this was the same thing happening to Quinn last year it's just that Quinn is a bit more polished and could operate fine in Sarks slow ass offense until we came up against Georgia or the like. These are the kind of concepts and routes that Freshwater is running. He isn't some genius his offense just is a bit more basic.

I'm not sure who told you Portland was a shithole but my wife's sister lives there and it's pretty much the same as it's always been. There is an uptick in homeless, but shit, there is an uptick in homeless here in Texas too. Yeah, outside of the main cities Oregon gets weird. Ton of weirdo militias and such. Steer clear.

My wife almost went there to run track. She said on her visit most of the girls were from Cali. She ended up going to Nevada. She still regrets it.
