Arch Manning Being "Arch"

We scored a clutch TD to end the second half and then kept scoring in the 3rd and 4th quarters to extend the lead. That was the last time we played like that all season.

Up 7-6 with a minute til HT.  Arch seems like he sucks.

Did I do that right?

I'll post this again. PFF graded Arch's game vs. Mississippi State at 94.2. Not only was he the highest graded Power 4 QB in Week 5, it was the highest rated game by a P4 QB through the first 5 weeks of the season. 

 

People sluff off that Mississippi State game/performance, but the Bulldogs came to play that day. They held the ball for 10 more minutes than Texas and had 50 carries on offense (including Van Buren's runs/sacks). Blue had 2 bad fumbles, tons of offensive penalties, and Cook dropped a breadbasket 60+ yard TD. If Arch doesn't play as well as he did, that would have been a much closer game. 

 

 

For context, Mississippi State thanks god for Purdue because they were the only worse defense in P4 football. MSU was well outside the top 100 defensively and the worst defense Texas played by a pretty decent margin.

Arch played well and I'm really excited to see what the offense looks like with him taking the reins, but there's even less to read into these numbers than there is in a rando G5 cupcake game.

We scored 20 points or less in 5 of our last 7 non overtime games.  Arch had nothing to do with that.

See that's the thing little guy. I don't run around spending pages dragging down ANY player, especially not the best quarterback we've had here since 2009. I am thankful to have good players again. I am thankful to be relevant again. I understand a simple fact that you don't. If a player has certain limitations, expecting him to be something he is not is on you the spectator, not him the player. It's been long established that Quinn cannot run and cannot throw the deep ball. Anyone who is still pissed about those things three years later is an idiot. Also, if the coach is still putting the player in positions to fail then you need to be looking at the coach and not the player. You don't trot Blue out there to punch it in on the 1. That's not in his skillset.

Next year there will be things that Arch struggles with. I will quickly shrug my shoulders and move on. You will be calling for {enter in a name} to come in and take over because you saw said player do something vs a directional school so that means it will work vs Georgia. You guys are nothing if not predictable. Now someone quote this so ignore boy can see it since he posted and ran.

Should we wait until after the spring game to start the "Owens should Starts" thread?  I mean, look at the 2024 spring game.   Arch is a turnover machine and Owens throws touchdowns every 7th attempt.   And it was Owens' side that took the win.  If not for the last name, manning would just be a stat padder.  Owens is a winner!

Hello. You have converted me to the Owens Should Starts Camp. My time as a Stanning is over.

Watching Arch’s limited tape, it’s encouraging how quickly he seems to learn from Freshman mistakes. I think by conference play he’ll have established himself as one of the best QBs in the SEC. He’ll always be a big game hunter though. Wingo will breakout next season. 

I think he might have a few games with two interceptions but he will probably have four touchdowns those games too.  Definitely going to more gunsling and the offense looking very different from this year.

Nary a post about the coaches putting Worthy in a situation where he couldn't succeed, like you know catching with a busted hand.  For QE, it was the coaches who failed to set him up for success, and the OL who failed him the running game, and the WR who didn't bail him out.

For X, it was lack of effort.

Reread my post. I said I don't spend "PAGES" dragging down any player, I didn't say I don't ever negatively critique them. "Pages"= multiple, and there are 50 posts per page on this forum. Worthy was here for three years. As long as Quinn was. There are 23,942 posts in the QE thread. Some of you have 10-20 pages BY YOURSELF worth of negativity. Where is MY 450 page thread where I shitted on Worthy consistently for three years? The Worthy thread is 33 pages. You are going to get some tell it like it is posts of course, which is what those are. Also, looking at Worthy in the league, those posts are spot on accurate. Catch radius is an issue. Drops. Not tracking deep balls. And is absolutely elite with the ball in his hands. And the post about the coach putting him in bad positions? Coach kinda quit that once he got AD Mitchell. Shame you didn't even notice that.

Most of any things I do here take a lot of words. In fact, this post here is wordier than it should be. Wait, is "wordier" even a word? Looked it up. It is. Anyway, as I was saying, I tend to make posts longer than they need to be. That's a flaw of mine. I talked to a therapist about it but he said I shouldn't focus so much on the negative. So this year, in 2025, I am on a mission to accept me for me. I said all that to say I apologize for taking a lot of words. It's just who I am. So hopefully going forward you can accept me for who I am. If not, I understand people are different and I accept you for being the type of person who doesn't like a lot of words. And that's the great thing about life you know? Everyone is different. For example you might be a titty man. I am an ass and leg guy. If we were all titty guys we would all be fighting over the same women. Then what would become of the women with hardly any titties but phat asses and nice legs? So it a good thing we are all different you know? That way no woman is without a dick. Unless of course they don't want a dick. Even the big girls have Vic. So you do what you gotta do here man. I will be cheering for you to have the least wordy posts on here. I want everyone to be successful in life bro. Get you some big titties too!

Arch's short interview before the Peach Bowl: 

A couple of things to note - 

 - He immediately says Wingo and Deandre Moore when asked who he has a good rapport with. Makes sense but still a great sign as our top returning WRs. 

 -  When asked about what he learned from his 2 starts, he said that "if I get game-like reps in practice, it will carry over." 

Let's remember that Arch enrolled at Texas in January 2023. We are right now entering Year 3 with Sark's offense and playbook. This will be his first Spring getting starter reps. He clearly held the ball too long and was adjusting to game speed in real time vs. UTSA and ULM at times. Better vs. Miss St.

Win or lose vs. Ohio State, he's gonna learn A TON after Week 1, then has a month of cupcakes (and a bye sprinkled in) to get prepared for SEC play.

You said "dick riding"  twice. 

You know what that means.

"Shat" is not only a perfectly good word in English, it's even less vulgar than its own present tense. And easier to say or write than, say, gescheissen habe.

Why would he? His offer list wasn't exactly eye-popping and he gets to learn from Sarkisian. If Manning is gone in two, Owens has potentially four years in the system and maybe two years of eligibility left when Dia Bell arrives on campus (assuming he doesn't change his mind). If Dia is Him, Trey can hit the portal then while having enjoyed everything Texas has to offer in the interim two years.
