  1. Agree. Not a huge fan of a condensed set that asks a WR to block on an obvious run situation. Might as well just load up go heavy and run it inside/
  2. That was just Golden getting blown up. It looks worse when the RB get popped fumbles it 4 yards backwards to Quinn. 3 guys are coming from the outside that never would have made the play, if Golden didnt get destroyed and the the RB went A/B gap
  3. It was dumbassery. Ohio State decided they need to play "Big 10 physical Football" vs Michigan. Tried to be physical with Michigan and forgot they have a huge advantage with NFL WRs vs back-up Dbs.
  4. All stats have their usefulness. They are just data points. Every stat tells you information, the key is knowing information it does not tell you. You cannot understand that unless the provider of the stat publishes how it is constructed, which is why people question QBR. Its better than QB rating, but how much better who knows
  5. It more than that. I think they had him outside the top 100 QBs in college football. That is a bold statement. One thing to say they think he under-achieved and been mediocre this year. Its another to say he is in the bottom 20 percentile of all college starters.
  6. Surprised that wasnt Will Howard. Just an aside, I would love to see PFF do a video on their grading system. Their overall hate of Ewers' season is beyond anything you even see here. I love to figure out why
  7. I need to get aroudn to re-watching, because I still do not know what I saw. Such a strange game
  8. He had a bad game run blocking vs ASU. You right it is a blessing. Anytime back-ups get significant time and dont cost the team a game, it is a positive.
  9. I dont think he makes it out of the end zone, but it was odd to go down. I didnt go back and watch it, but remember thinking why didnt make an attempt to get out of the endzone.
  10. I think Texas has reached a point where even in a rebuilding year, they will be solid. I believe the floor on this program is 9 wins.
  11. We are going to find out. I am not even sure what the run game is going to look like next year. Will it be heavy gap scheme, inside zone, or outside zone? How long does it take Sark and Flood to figure out which 5 gel the best? What scheme fits them?
  12. I tend to think people over-estimate new starters, especially on fan sites. I hope you are right. I think there will be some ups and downs next year. Lots of new faces along the LOS
  13. We have 0 idea. I remember people coming after me when I said DJ has a lot a growth to do and struggles with stunts, when he opened the year as a starter. People said I took his freshman appearances too seriously. Well, how did that work out. It took him awhile to put it together. We have no idea what the OL will look like next year. Its not always plug and play. Guys like Banks are unicorns. Odds say first year starters will have their struggles. I hope they surprise, but any prediction on their play is pure speculation at this point. Only thing I am comfortable saying is Goosby should be solid in pass pro next year. The other 4, no fvcking idea. I hope they exceed expectations.
  14. I do not like the guy, but he is not wrong. Not sure Texas has put together a full game this season vs a decent opponent. Would be great to see that vs OSU.
  15. Its a personal choice. I have this one lower, because it was vs an inferior team. If Texas has a game winning drive over OSU next week, I would put that above this. I know ASU is a playoff team in this new world, but they are not a high level team. Great moment still. reminded me of the Kansas conversion that was necessary in the old system to advance
  16. This is 100% correct. There is no way Texas should have been in that situation. That never should have been a game. Never seen a game where every unit was so up down.
  17. One reason a hate the blitz on 4th and long. If the OL and RB (great block by Wisner I believe, stoned the LB) pick it up, its pretty easy read and throw for the QB.
  18. It was. Pretty sure the sack was one also. I am sure there were more. Sark has run a lot more play action with Quinn, than RPO
  19. They are #3 in sacks/game. Sawyer and Tuimoloau have 24 sacks off the edge.
  20. 2nd time was 300 yards of garbage. OSU safeties are arguably the best unit in the country. The CBs can be had. The one is very grabby. The biggest difference is OSU is going to get pressure with their front 4. They have NFL guys also. That was one reason that I said Quinn would play well vs ASU. I didnt think ASU could get pressure on Quinn (I also thought Texas would run on them, that was wrong). I dont think Texas needed to run vs ASU (No pressure and not much tight coverage). They will need to at least hit on a couple runs vs OSU. Not so much down to down success running vs OSU. Its when things are blocked up, the RBs have to hit the correct hole, and make a safety miss. Needs to be 20+ yards, not 7.
  21. That would be a pleasant surprise. Consistency is not a word one generally uses to describe the Texas offense. ASU secondary could not cover anyone. I do not think we will see guys consistently open like that again.
  22. I dont think he turtles as much as people think. 1st down calls in the 2nd half: Drive 1: 17-3.. pass - Sack drive 2: safety. field position, nothing to see here Drive 3: 17-8 Run for 2 Run for 6 Pass for 8 Pass INC Inside the 10 score TD Drive 4: 24-16 ... Run - 6 (throw deep on 2nd Down and 4) Sark did not go into run mode, even when some of us were asking for the brakes with 6 minutes to go (Drive 4). Its not turtling, its just shitty offense Just an aside. I saw Fozzy bitching about the lack of commitment to the run. He was bitching about how many times he sees Texas throw on 1st down get and incomplete and run on 2nd. Paraphrasing "Everyone is expecting run on 2nd and long. You run it to get to 3rd and medium. That is not setting the run game up for success".
