Yep. No OTF or any sports channels this week for me. I need a break and I don't want to hear how we're overrated. 

What you'll actually hear in most places is that Texas is still on course to make the CFP. 

 

[Billy Pilgrim 1960]

I’m encouraged by the second off if Sark has the guts to bench Ewers. Defense is legit, the turnovers, short fields and shitty punts resulted in most of their points. Defense gave up 1 TD in the second half. If we had average QB play, that’s a 1 score game with Texas having a shot to win at the end.

Texas D had their back against the wall that entire first half

The defense balled out. The offense hung them out to dry.

Loss was all on the offense. The D played well tonight

This was an elimination/ do or die game for Georgia and their defense played  like it

Texas D is legit. 

Texas O with Quinn ain't going anywhere with him in the driving seat. I only saw Bond catch like 1 or 2 passes. That's malpractice. That, and not goiback to Wingo deep.

We didn't get a single first down against OU last week. That should have been the tell that Quinn is ass against pressure 

Wait, what?

I don't foresee the result of this game changing my posting style. That's for sure.

Didn't you show your gaping pussy throughout the game thread, or was that someone else? Lol. 

I was right and you were wrong ex ante. Your posts get reps because you're masterful at playing to the crowd, like you need that validation. That's fine. I just find it hilarious.

Kirby is a scumbag

I think most here know that I went to grad school at Alabama. As a grad school job, I worked for the athletic department. This was pre-Saban, but post Albert Means. Alabama, and the whole SEC, is as dirty as they come. Not shocked that Kirby Smart, a guy who has spent almost his entire professional career in the SEC, is dirty as fuck.

Perhaps it was the hopium, but I honestly thought we looked better with Manning.  His ability to escape the pocket is a difference maker.  

Can't run the zone-read with Quinn because nobody respects it.  They just crash down on the RB

I think you go with Manning. QE has done a lot for this program. But Manning is the future. Build for the future.

Offense shit the bed. Georgia had short fields all first half. 

 

if you told me at lunch, ‘we’re holding georgia to under 300’ 

I'm high fiving you because that screams a texas W !!!

[naija 2854]

A&M's defensive line might actually be better.

[Sgt Hulk 13713]

The defense only giving up 30 when UGA had the ball at our 20 10 times is still Imprwssive. 
 

there still k o leader on offense. No guy that says this is my team.  Quinn looked like a deer in a headlight and ran like my 90 year old grandfather

Can't go deep when you're bailing out of the pocket every play 

[Vic Mackey 47006]

Quinn was garbage, but that’s because he was under fire all night. Oline got outworked, plain and simple.
Losing sucks, but nobody is going 16-0.  Go home, lick your wounds, and get ready for Vandy. 
This season is far from fucked..

Plenty of plays where the OL did enough but Ewers has zero pocket awareness and he made the OL look bad by bailing out and running outside.

We aren't going anywhere if he's our QB going forward. He's like 1-5 against the top 5 teams In his career. He's not the guy. Time to move on and see what Arch has for us.

[dad 557]

I’m ok with Ewers getting the second half. Arch didn’t exactly throw it with precision himself otherwise I would have been calling for him to come back. And yes Ewers sucked and was just as responsible as the OL for the loss.

Yeah, I know. I just hate hearing the bad stuff we did. Like. We saw it, dudes. We don't need a recap all week, or grades.

Sark could have given the second half to Manning, but if they came up short, he'd have a QB controversy. Instead, he gave Quinn the second half as if to say "if you can't do it, you're losing the starting job, beginning next week."

We'll see. It was the right call for Sark to pull Ewers and put Manning in. But the result showed that he's not a magic bullet and that's not surprising to anyone who isn't a reactionist football neophyte. He's good, and I think his ceiling is higher than Quinn's. Quinn is disappointing because it's his third year. He shouldn't be so susceptible to pressure at this stage. Even acknowledging that the OL didn't do their part tonight, he certainly didn't either. If he could have had maybe one more game to get back into pre-injury form, maybe he could have pulled it off. It shouldn't have taken more than the OU game, but clearly that wasn't enough.

But Kirby did what he needed to do in prepping his team for this game. His back was against the wall, and he pulled it off. Have to give him and his team credit.

[naija 2854]

... and I very much doubt that Sark will change starters. We are well into the "we still have a lot to play for" part of the playbook, so that's not going to happen.

[UTEX_ME 4762]

Quinn lost his 1st round pick tonight? Banks?

[Richter 2256]

As a single issue voter on prisoner transgender surgeries, I was a bit distracted in this game and I think that that probably applies to most of our fanbase and thus any home field advantage was negated.  I like our chances in a rematch after the election.

I don't think the O line was the problem. I think it was weak play calling and Sark's inability to adjust to what GA threw at us. Having a mentally and physically hobble QB didn't help either. Sark sure didn't help Quinn any. 

you should never post about football again

[Texasrocks 2134]

This felt like one of those losses to TCU back when Patterson spent months preparing for Texas. 

[dad 557]

At one point my firestick asked me if I wanted to keep watching after detecting inactivity for a few hours. 
 

It was trying to put me out of my misery. It was that bad. 

[Braff Zacklin 13552]

Welp, that was an ass-kicking. Georgia was stronger in the trenches on both sides of the ball.

'Horns defense wasn't great but played well enough to win only to be let down by the offense and its punter.

Gotta throw some blame on Sark & Co., too, because Georgia seemed to have better game plans on offense and defense. They looked strong. Our 'Horns did not.

[Firemans4Horn 18034]

20 of our 28 completed passes tonight went to running backs or tight ends. Even when we had a clean pocket we couldn’t get anything going downfield.

D did fine.  They were good enough to win this.  Are good enough.

I think under the circumstances the D played terrifically. They were starting like every drive on the Texas 35 in the first half.

[victory88 5663]

Did DJ Campbell get benched?  Saw Hutson play most of the 2nd half from what I saw. 
 

this came down the the lines of scrimmage and the Texas OL got embarrassed.  I felt that the Texas defense held their own considering the constant short fields and terrible situations the offense put them in.  Defense for 3 turnovers and didn’t allow a single passing touchdowns. Had you told me that before the game, I would have bet on a Texas blow outs 

This game falls on the offensive line, Quinn, the RBs, and Sark.  Terrible game plan, terrible blocking, RBs dropping passes and bad Quinn showed up again.

With everything said, we took 2 out of 3 from Michigan, ou, Georgia.   I would have taken that every day before the season started.  Sucks because this was an embarrassing loss in front of the whole country after all the hype, but we have everything in front of us.  We’re going to find out what this team is made of bc there are a lot of teams that truly hate us left on the schedule.  Time to win out.

 

Hook ‘em!

The SEC is different.

[Hank Kingsley 20904]

I like Quinn and he's a very good college QB but the NFL 1st round hype has always been nonsense and oversold his talents. Sark's offense makes him look better than he is. 

That said, he should still start the rest of this year unless/until we lose another game. Arch needs one more offseason to become the man.

This is something Manning is undoubtedly better than Quinn at, Manning has a rocket arm. Quinn underthrows everything. He can't hit anyone in stride because they're constantly having to wait for the ball to come to them. Manning has better wheels too.

[Jkwellborn 6686]

Because he fumbles and Sark was worried about turning the ball over. Turns out we did fine in that department without Blue.

Does that mean he’s gonna have Quinn sit most of the next game?

Check down Charlie. I know people say no one was open down field but how do we know that without seeing the All-22 camera angle.

Thats pretty much all of it. Banks battled, but he got worked more than I’ve ever seen.
