  1. Arch was so bad against OSU he didn’t give Wingo the chance to drop the ball on the two shallow crossers.
  2. Wut? You practice with your usual front line to be prepared for a surprise onside kick. They placed it right in the gap between Jonah and Roberson. Jonah was right there to make the play but was surprised and late because our special teams coach doesn’t practice this stuff with any type of urgency. Teams that are disciplined and prepare accordingly don’t need a hands team to stop a surprise onside kick against Georgias normal kick off unit.
  3. Right but you could make that assumption for any coach. Kirby has been exposed in the passing game this year against teams that can take advantage of it. I think it might have been @Codaxx that mentioned PK needs the position coaches under him that know the scheme 100% or at least can translate it to the players. Too many errors in the secondary that stem from mental lapses rather than just getting beat.
  4. That’s kind of what I always thought a blowout was. Even down 21–10, I thought we were still in it and if we were to lose the final score would have us losing by 7 or 10. The fourth quarter was a disaster though, and you could feel the energy leave the Texas side once Georgia recovered the onside kick. In that sense, the game finished like it was a blowout because of the way our team reacted to the Georgia momentum. Everyone in that stadium knew our defense was leaving it all out there and the tank was running on empty.
  5. This really only works if you can get a guy like Freeman. Those types will be in the playoffs so roster retention will be extremely difficult. Florida is only holding on because of the buzz surrounding them with Kiffin.
  6. SIAP.
  7. Imo Texas is missing out on witnessing Sark’s full potential of being a HC with his stubbornness of being the OC. To what degree that is, who knows. It’s possible he’s only slightly better in preparation and awareness during the game. Still think that is something the players, NIL people and fans deserve to see after wondering the desert for a decade plus. But at least we’re not dealing with the stupidity of Strong or the narcissism of Herman. If Sark wants to die by his own sword then we’ll find someone who is fully present in all phases of the game.
  8. He didn’t lie about practicing for an onside kick. Earlier in the week he mentioned special teams being a part of the preparation for Kirby. I have no doubt they actually practiced onside kicks, fake punts or anything else that may surprise them. The problem is Sark’s inability to properly implement these areas of concern in the game plan. You have to drill to the players that this shit changes the game and can be a defining factor in the outcome. I think it’s obvious we go through the motions at practice when it comes to stuff like this. It’s all part of our guys being undisciplined in key moments during the game.
  9. If he was truly a bad guy with a two faced persona then I think it would have leaked out by now. From people in the know, they all say that Sark is introspective and is honest with his faults. Didn’t he openly admit to “writers block” in big games his first couple of years here? He may be covering up his demons that sprout up but that’s more dealing with a disease that can happen to good and bad people.
  10. This is the first low rushing game where the efficiency didn’t match the attempts. In the previous games we weren’t running the ball against Georgia at all. It was completely futile. Last night however, the run game was there especially the first quarter and he just didn’t go back to it. Got down 14-3 in a hurry and it’s almost like he panicked. Defense figures it out and the first 2 plays in the second half were runs that didn’t go anywhere and the run game was shunned again. We’ve been horrible for the most part at running the ball this year. The short and quick screen game has alleviated that struggle to a degree and we had success doing it. Kirby has had Sark by the balls in the trenches in previous matchups. Makes sense for Sark to try and find new wrinkles in the screen game and use it against Georgia. But who would have thought that this Oline could put together a run game against Georgia this game? Apparently Sark wasn’t believing what his eyes were seeing.
  11. You guys are severely underestimating the coaching side of things as it pertains to NIL. Herman would not even get close to the type of roster Sark has built through NIL because he’s a narcissistic asshole that fails at every level running a program. Sark has undoubtedly fumbled this season with the backing and support he was given. But it would be so much worse if Herman was running this program right now. Herman would be awful at roster retention with the culture he creates.
  12. Ah yes, because the majority of his draft picks were Strong recruits. I swear you guys have forgotten how bad Herman was at running the program. He was hated at all levels.
  13. The difference between Sark and Kirby isn’t a ballsy on side kick that Nostradamus couldn’t even predict. Kirby puts his guys in position to win and they execute. Big or small. Meanwhile, Wingo is apparently allergic at catching a shallow crosser for a first down. Those drops by the WR’s are terrible and can’t happen in a big game. Sark can’t keep preaching execution without having a look in the mirror.
  14. Tom Herman? This board has a horrible memory.
  15. We were running 3-1-7 set at unusual times and it was successful. The Dline played the run pretty well considering how much they were on the field. At one point the Georgia offense went 4 punts in a row followed by an interception. It really boils down to the secondary. Losing the Thorpe award winner and Mukuba is killing this defense right now. He just doesn’t trust anyone on the outside not named Manny.
  16. PK should probably retire Trey Moore at the LB position. He’s just not good there at all.
  17. I wouldn’t go that far with Guilbeau being selfish but who knows. He’s just not that good athletically or mentally. Arkansas and Aggie are going to pick on him the entire game.
  18. It was a busted coverage by Guilbeau. Babers was a little perplexed by Guilbeau’s coverage on that play saying if no one comes into your flat area then carry the 1 receiver. I don’t know why he thought there was automatic safety help over the top.
  19. Taffee being out sucked but I thought McDonald was able to hold the secondary together the best he could. Once he went down the defense had 3 easy targets to pick on. Williams just isn’t the same post injury, Filsaime is very meh, and Guilbeau is so obviously being picked on it hurts to watch.
  20. Does the time he missed have something to do with their child having to spend time in the NICU? Or does the birth not match up with the junior day timeline of the 30 day thing?
  21. Your reply to me on Sark not thinking the college level is beneath him, is a puff piece tactic used by any coaches agent when they have interest in other jobs? Those two things aren’t even connected at all. If Sark actually believed the college level is beneath him, he would have left a long time ago. The article carry’s more weight if you were trying to suggest he’s leaving for another job even after what his agency released and the post game presser comment.
  22. Bit of a stretch. Sark has said in interviews why he prefers the college game over the pros. That opinion might have changed now for numerous reasons but it’s not because Sark thinks the college game is beneath him.
  23. The other way around—he’s spread too thin at OC while being the head coach. Sark over calculated with all the injuries that happened late in the season and went with the NFL model for the offseason. He also put too much faith into the homegrown Oline. If he comes back those are things that can be fixed. The hardest part for fixing Saturdays will be getting him to relinquish play calling duties. I may be in the minority here but I don't think it’s a forgone conclusion he doesn’t give up play calling.
  24. Oh for sure. The extreme doom and gloom types on here are going to have it bad.
  25. It’s not the first time we’ve seen an aggy coach make a jump in year 2. Maybe Elko is the real deal or maybe not.
