  1. It matters too me. Previous to modern football, Street was the best UT QB of all time. Modern football he isn't. Isn't his fault. Times are different. People didn't throw the ball back then. It is almost two different sports when you compare the two eras. Big linemen were what 260#. It wasn't a year around sport. Criticize me all you want. Its my opinion and I just don't think you can compare the two. If you go by wins and championships alone, sure he should probably be the greatest of all time but people aren't saying that are they? So, what exactly is the criteria? If everyone else can make up their own, I will too.
  2. If he was a pitcher he would have won the Cy Young being 20-0, too bad this is football. It is flawed. He is an all-time great longhorn, period. He ran an option offense at the highest level. That makes him a good option QB. It isn't the same and you know it.
  3. LOL, one of the better runs on the day......,ouch
  4. I can't do it. The modern era of football is so different and asks the QB to do too much. He is an all-time great longhorn but he doesn't belong on the top Texas QB list. Especially in a thread where people have criticized our QB even though he has won a ton of games while the starter. Take away wins and even Arch is higher on the list than Street. Go ahead, bash me, many won't like the take but you can't combine the two eras, there is nowhere to compare them appropriately.
  5. Those LBs were some bad ass, hard hitting Mother effers.
  6. Everyone counting out Texas? I like it. OSU getting hyped up is awesome. Sure they looked good against Oregon but Tennessee wasn't all that. Look at their schedule(Tennessee) and scores. The padded all their stats against weak opponents. Their defense was good, their offense was suspect. I would be shocked if OSU walked all over us. Hopefully it doesn't come down to the 3rd QTR. I think if we get on top of them early and Sark doesn't turtle we got a decent shot. We have to have a lead at halftime, preferably double digits.
  7. I didn't see people shooting a bunch of gaps, I saw a lot of slants. I haven't seen any analysis online showing how that was the Strat. If you have people shooting gaps, there is usually a risk, reward because it can cause gaping holes. That sure as hell wasn't the case. they strung everything out, filled gaps, tackled well and won a ton of 1v1 assignments.
  8. I'm dumbfounded, we've run the ball pretty well against everyone not named Georgia and WTF ASU? I'm really struggling to comprehend it. I get Georgia. Don't like it but I get it. ASU still baffles me. Hopefully they got that out of their system.
  9. You know the Michigan defense that dominated you in your own house got dominated by Texas in their own house right?
  10. JFC dude, he didn't shoot the fucking gap. Can you read, do your eyes work? Campbell should wash him out of the fucking play. The play is designed to go right up Jake Majors ass. It didn't work because Conner got pushed into the play and Campbell couldn't move a 240# weak side DE off his spot. Our offensive line was ass in the run game, stats prove that, not sure how what I am posting is being contested. Go watch the clip yourself. A shitty DE who couldn't get on the field for us just abused our former 5 star right Guard.
  11. I understand people don't want to believe someone with Campbells talent and size can let a play like this happen but it did and it is embarrassing.
  12. It wasn't speed, I will try to find and make a clip. He put his shoulder into Campbell, stopped him and moved upfield. He set the edge like a strong side DE should. Problem is he shouldn't be physically capable of doing that against Campbell. Below is a screenshot earlier in the play for reference. 74 did get his hands on him and he wasn't shooting a gap or perpendicular to Campbell, he just beat him.
  13. I took the screenshots from the video, he didn't shoot a gap, he was for some reason completely unable to move him. If the video was on YouTube I could make a clip of it. I have no idea how to make o clip from where this video originated. If you watch the video this has nothing to do with speed. Dorbah just puts his right shoulder into Campbell and stoned him on the spot.
  14. He used him as a blocker against UGA2. Strange, I know, certainly isn't his strength.
  15. Disagree to some degree, a 330# Offensive linemen should be able to displace a 240# defensive end to make a hole for the RB. That was the design of that particular play. I keep hearing how tough DJ is. He should be able to lean on that guy and move him. Maybe 74 was supposed to double team him before moving on so that Cambell could seal to the inside but it doesn't appear that way. Even the announcers were talking about how this played out. Our offensive line couldn't even hold the point of attack, they were getting pushed around by much smaller guys.
  16. Watching their QB run his mouth after the coin toss for OT and Suckertbutt mouthing to the camera after his lineman suplexed him into the end zone was fucking infuriating. Watching them cry afterwards was well worth the infuriation. Tasty, tasty tears.
  17. Don't be timid, if you are going after him up the middle, do it with purpose.
  18. You think DJ Cambell not being able to move a 240 lb prince Dorbah off his spot has anything to do with game plan? These are the things I saw in the game. He has that dude by a hundred pounds and got completely stonewalled in OT. That should have been a 6-7 yard gain at minimum that we lost yards on eventually leading to 4th and 13. I agree, Quinn is better when we spread people out and let Quinn sling it. He is comfortable doing that. It wasn't ASUs game plan that stoned our run game as much as just getting whipped at the point of attack. That is the embarrassing part. Sark waited until the last moment to just abandon the run. It worked. Exhilarating game that resembled a roller coaster. I think its funny that people who have come in here to ridicule Quinn Ewers are now calling for the offense to move to a spread offense throwing the ball all over the yard. Sounds like the complaining should have been focused on something other than Quinn to begin with.
  19. 7 yards was our longest run against ASU. For a hundred pages we have read that Quinn can't throw the ball worth a shit now we should have abandoned the run sooner. WTF is going on in here. It isn't about abandoning the run, it is executing it. We lost 2 games and almost lost another because we couldn't run the football. I do agree that Sark should have went to the quick, short passing game earlier, dumping down to backs because that OZ was a net negative. We were behind the chains all night.
  20. ASU defense isn't Michigan or OSU or Georgia. We should never have been in that position. There is no excuse for not being able to run the ball on an overmatched, undersized defense.
