24-20 UT Clemson yards: 315

He's been terrible all year. We had him for 3 straight weeks right? God that was awful.

Holy revisionist history. Sam, while a longhorn legend and a brief glimpse of hope amidst a decade of pure QB trash, was nowhere near great. We're not in the Big 12 championship last year with Sam & let's not even start with David Ash. This is aggy level of delusion/wishcasting. You can point out all the flaws with Quinn you want, there are plenty to choose from, but that shit is just absurd.

We'll see just how good some of these QBs are that have played different versions of nobody all season. Madsen sucked vs. UO, Rourke completely no showed OSU & wasn't very good against UM, Klubnik is known, Leavitt has feasted on some shitty Big 12 teams but that's not happening in the playoffs & he won't be able to lean on Skattebo avg. 6+ a carry, & Howards performance vs Michigan is enough to let me know he's still the same Will Howard and not anyone we should worry about. I don't know, just from what I've seen this season I'd still have Quinn in the 3-6 range. Gabriel is tops & then you can choose between Allar, Leonard, Howard, Ewers, Klubnik, & Jennings. Any of them could have a big game and lead their team to victory or be a turnover machine or just complete ass and cause their team to lose.

Arch would help in the redzone, especially vs UGA, because our OL can't run block for shit against them. 56 yards rushing from our RBs on 20 carries isn't good enough against anyone and that is amplified when the field is condensed. Run the the zone read, or QB power with Arch and sprinkle in a couple of throws to keep them honest and I think we punch it in at least once given UGAs struggles. I'm completely flummoxed that Sark didn't have that ready to go given the success Arch had vs. a&m and the issues UGA has had defending it this year. That's not on QE, that's a Sark issue & an OL issue for not being able to get yards on the ground. Here's to hoping he was just saving it for the playoffs.

I hated the play call, but I was hoping to continue running it down their throats. 3rd and 4, run the ball and if you get 2-3 yards you have a decision to make, otherwise take your points after a long and demoralizing drive. There wasn't a single option open on that play so the best case scenario was going to be Quinn throwing it away, instead he made a terrible decision & it got tipped to boot. I texted my brother that hopefully that was Quinn's last wtf turnover.. I was wrong. It seems he just can't help himself.

It's something like this that tells me you either saw the play once and haven't watched it again to check your initial diagnosis, or you have seen it and are just digging in your heels while knowing you're wrong. LOS is the 12, first down is the 20, Bond turn at the 24-1/2. All DBs are turned to cover their WR, one LB blitzes, one LB races to cover Helm, one LB sticks around the LOS to cover the RB. Bond is 12+ yards down the field & QE never once even acts like he's supposed to be the hot route. He looks immediately to Helm who either doesn't diagnose it as quickly so he wasn't ready for it or was suppose to stop because he was the hot read and his guy blitzed. Maybe it was an off script split decision for him to throw it that soon and QE was hoping Gunnar would turn a beat sooner to be able to adjust to it because if QE leads him he gets blown up by the S or the S makes a good break on the ball and knocks it down or picks it off.

Bond ran a 12 yard curl. That's hardly a hot route vs a blitz and, as you can tell on replay, Bonds man had turned his back and was running with him. Either they ran a shitty cover 3 where everyone looked like they were in man with a single high safety or they were in man and blitzed.

If that's cover 3 they do a really shitty job at running it because all the defenders are locked up on their man & turning and running with them instead of covering their zones. One LB blitzes, one races to cover Helm, one stays to check the RB. If he reads the blitz then he doesn't run his route full speed but is instead looking at Quinn throw it to him. Looks like a great read to me & the 1/2 second you see of Sark talking to Quinn means shit unless you know what he said. For all you know he was telling him good read or telling him he missed the 1st down read or keep your head up or any number of things

I can't unsee what happened in October either, but I think we got caught up in the hype and were sniffing our own farts a little. I don't think that's an issue this time & I think our defensive performance is more easily duplicated than theirs. 24-10 UT 30-120

Ready to blow Helm up if QE waits another second to throw that. QE read that perfectly, the LB covering Helm was covering for the LB that blitzed on Helms side. He's having to come across the entire formation and there's no way for him to get there in time. If Helm would have read his guy blitzing and realized he was the hot read that's a first down and a big play if he can make Anderson miss.

Or for the drones to run into each other causing them to crash to the ground, injuring innocent bystanders.

This prediction worked well last week & I see this being a similar game. 31-15 UT 333 passing yards
