  1. Worthy had a drop on 3rd down that would have been a 1st.. I don’t remember another one, but he is way too valuable to take off the field. He is a dynamic playmaker with the ball in his hands. Just as important he draws the attention of the defense, like no other player on the offense. He gets a lot of bracket coverage.
  2. 3 guards played yesterday and according to PFF they were all bad in the run game. All of them received basically a 52 run grade. Pretty much tells you why Texas struggles to run in short yardage situations
  3. Yes. MM was fine for his 1st start, but that level of play is going to end up in an L next week. Quinn looked completely different in game 2 compared to game 1. If Maalik makes a similar jump, Texas can beat KSU. If he doesn’t progress, no bueno.
  4. Beebe vs Sweat match-ups will be worth the price of admission. Have to stop the run game vs KSU.. it all starts there..
  5. And vs a bad Qb with slow WRs.. it’s was better, but that is a really bad offense
  6. If you are going to run it and show it, might as well bring in Neto with Murphy
  7. Or we could do more than the same 3 plays.. dive..trap and I/Z. I'm all for a slant, rubs routes, something to mix it up. It’s embarrassing at this point. The Texas OL shouldn’t need misdirection to get a 1/2 yard. It’s one thing is it happens vs teams like Georgia, but it’s consistent and not vs high level competition
  8. I think Texas has a short yardage issue. Conner and Majors both struggle to anchor the LOS in those situations. Adding Neto might really help in those situations
  9. I think Texas has a short yardage problem, not necessarily a red zone issue (they are inter-related). I would like to see some more Neto.. I just don’t think Majors and Conner anchor well enough in short-yardage situations.
  10. It was Maalik’s first start and it looked like it. He doesn’t look there, but we will see if he can take the necessary steps in game 2
  11. He actually said Quinn should have taken some of the shots and not dumped it off. He thought Quinn was a touch too risk-adverse. That was about the Houston game, not sure when you are pulling the Sark comment.
  12. This is you projecting.. there were a couple dump offs to Brooks that were a little late, if Brooks was #2 it wouldn’t have been late.. You are simply watching through your skewed lenses and fitting your opinion to the action..
  13. So after a game where people were complaining that Quinn was checking down too much hitting his 3rd read, the story is he doesn’t get past his 1st read?
  14. This just isn’t valid. TCU started their freshman Qb vs BYU and he absolutely lit them up. He went out the next week and lost 45-3 to KSU. Quinn lit up Bama for a quarter, then OU, and 2 games later OSU happened. Lots of QBs come out and have good games, but then tape comes out. DC find the weakness and that is when you find out if a QB has staying power. Most of them can not adapt and make changes
  15. Franklin's is the obvious one.. la BBq Micklewait's Interstellar and Terry Blacks Joes's Bakery: East side Mexican... great brekfast tacos also Matt's El Rancho: old School Austin staple for Tex Mex (Jalapeno Margarita is a must) ATX Coccina/La Condessa if you want more upscale
  16. Biggest issues in the red zone is the lack of a power running game. Generally, teams have played safeties back to take away the explosive passing play. Texas has run the ball well, but usually vs favorable box numbers. That changes when the space gets limited. I think Texas may have had a short yardage issue more than a Redzone issue, though Reed seems to fixing that
  17. Any offense with tht talent would put up pts. This was not scheme thing, this was a jimmy and joes thing.
  18. Just saying that example is kind of extreme. I believe Mac Jones offense set a scoring record. Scored 48.5 pts per game in 2020 and 47.2 in 2019. Comparing those offenses to anyone is just apples to oranges
  19. those offenses were ridiculous. Top 5 in receptions in 2019: DaVonte Smith, Jeudy, Ruggs, Waddle, and Najee Harris. I believe all of them went 1st round in the draft. That is arguably the most talented offense in CFB the last 20 years or so.
  20. The line is 19 and the opponent is BYU.. Neither is great for inspiring a huge home crowd
  21. It obviously bad to have 1 QB for the game, but I am not particularly worried about Arch starting
  22. I am guessing you meant TCU there. Sark had a winning record vs the 3 high last year. He ran all over ISU and KSU to get victories. Lets not forget the 3 high can be run in various ways. TCU was very aggressive out of it, leaving a lot of 1 on 1s on the outside. You can play like Houston and use it almost as a umbrella look. It pretty obvious there has been a major shift in the philosophy against Texas this year. First 2 years DC feared the run game more. Texas had NFL RBs, probably still do. They Casey, Card, and a first year Ewers. Perhaps the reason most DCs are now going out of their way to stop the passing game and giving Texas honest boxes is because of the growth at the QB spot. That would seem to be the simple explanation.
  23. Interesting take. I am trying to understand this. In Sark's first 2 seasons it was all about stopping the run for the opposition. This year DCs are completely focused on stopping the pass. That 180 in defensive strategy is because opposing DCs think Quinn is mediocre?
  24. Holy shit this thread is a beat down. Texas has had 2 QBs with perfect recruiting rankings and more than a handful of Texas fans were unbearable cunts to to both of them through 1.5 years of play. At least people are not calling for Quinn to be a WR yet, like they did with VY.
