Texas O-line talk
As a former Texas O-Lineman, I’ve never seen the Longhorn offensive line struggle like this. It’s beyond concerning — protection is collapsing, no push up front, and it’s killing every drive. We must go back to max protection. Football isn’t 7-on-7 — it’s won in the trenches. Right now, Texas is losing that war every snap. It doesn’t matter who’s at QB or how loaded your skill room is… if you can’t protect or move the D-line, you’re done. 5:44 PM · Oct 4, 2025 ·

Arch Manning: Scores every way possible
Crossposting to this thread... Manning is not a 2026 NFL Draft prospect With below-average offensive line play and a quarterback who is trying to figure out his passing rhythm and anticipation in real time, the result is Texas’ offense. Young quarterbacks tend to be overly conservative, and we are reminded of Manning’s inexperience with every dropback. Against Florida, his lack of anticipation led to tardy decisions. And too often when he found the right read, he hurried his mechanics, which resulted in an inaccurate throw (or worse, an interception). It doesn’t help that the Gators consistently got pressure with only four rushers, and the Texas running game offered very little relief, which put an even heavier burden on the quarterback. Manning’s best play of the day was his third-quarter touchdown toss. He was immediately forced off his spot (again, by a four-man rush), and he subtly shuffled to his left and found Wingo on the post for the touchdown pass. In the second half, Manning’s ability to keep plays alive with his legs was a major factor in Texas keeping it a one-possession game. While an inconsistent performance overall, there were several examples of progress to take away from Manning’s day. Like with any college quarterback with single-digit career starts and an inconsistent supporting cast, any reaction to his play shouldn’t be an obituary. Is development guaranteed? Of course not. But how Manning looked in his first career SEC road start (Saturday against the Gators) will almost certainly look different when he makes his 20th career start. This is a quarterback figuring things out in the moment, which is why Manning shouldn’t be considered a 2026 NFL Draft prospect — he is a 2027 or 2028 NFL Draft prospect. — Dane Brugler, NFL Draft analyst

Hey PK -- What would you say you do here?
Not sure on Malik (Manny)... Did not realize Kobe Black wasn't 100% today... The other two players who went from questionable to probable are junior running back Quintrevion Wisner and and sophomore cornerback Kobe Black. Wisner hasn’t played since the season opener against Ohio State while Black missed the final non-conference game against Sam Houston with an undisclosed injury. According to CBS Sports, Wisner is also expected to play on Saturday. Trending in the opposite direction is junior cornerback Manny Muhammad, who played 22 snaps against the Bearkats before landing on the first injury report released on Wednesday. Initially listed as probable, Muhammad is now listed as doubtful.

Wisner ran tentatively... not sure how healthy he really was today. No identity to this run game -- O-line play was pathetic
