Game Thread Texas vs Vanderbilt - 3:15pm on the SEC Network

[Pig Bellmont 8719]

Terrible 2nd half from the offense. Just dumb penalties all over the field, including the roughing call to erase the game clinching pick 6. 
 

After hearing the entire broadcast crew openly cheering for Vandy, I can’t wait to never hear about Pavia again

Games at Aggy and Arky scares you to death.

[ClubWhatever 12144]

A clean game and we beat them by 30.  So many stupid plays starting with the very first kickoff.

Arky is a loss.  Petrino has their offense humming.

[Rimbo 25967]

OK, observations I made during the game.

 

GOOD

1. We won. Yay
2. Ewers did some good things I didn't see the past two weeks
   1. Stepped up in the pocket once when he should've
   2. One really accurate throw to Helm
   3. Converted 3rd and 20 (fucking holding)
   4. 13 yard completion to Wingo on 2nd and 23 (fucking holding)
3. We avoided 3rd and long mostly (fucking holding) and converted 3rd downs!
4. Wisner no longer looked like a 4th string RB like he did last week
   1. and Blue did not fumble
5. Our defense played great yet again
   1. The first tip for an int
   2. motherfuckin' Taafe!
   3. motherfuckin' Lefau!
6. Special teams answered the bell all game long

BAD

1. The list of things Ewers did well under "GOOD" above were not indicative of most of his day; still slow and indecisive
2. By the 4th quarter, 2 TOs for them resulted in 14 points; 2 TOs for us resulted in 0. (Yes we added a measly FG off a TO in the 4th)
3. Defense (after playing great all day) on Vanderbilt's 2 minute drill was giving up too much too often.

UGLY

1. Penalties killing us yet again. Awful.
2. The second-worst sacking D in the SEC got sacks and pressure all day. Something is terribly wrong there.
3. Broadcasters showing stupid statistics like "record against Top 5 teams" and making dumb comments like "pass targeted #19" when it was clearly Wingo, #5.

Ugly would've been a much longer list if we'd lost. We have to win to continue to control our own destiny.

That's a really good Vanderbilt team, there, and we successfully closed the Circle of Suck with Georgia and Alabama with the win.

we are not losing to Aggy. Most of us will commit sepeku if so. 

If we play like this in College Station, we'll get the shit kicked out of us.

Let's not do that.

I made mention to a fellow co-worker that is a Longhorn fan that this is how things are going to be in the SEC. While I was not a fan of moving into the the Scholastic Excellence Conference, I think it was the better move regarding recruiting

Flags killed our drives and extended theirs. How many yards of offense in the second half?  If anyone feels confident about Ewers after the last three games you have lost your damn mind.

Vandy played a clean disciplined game. Texas did not with penalties and turnovers that were killers.

No one does, but what can you do?

[Irish Wrist Watch 1369]

Need more play action passes (and not the kind where you fake a handoff and throw it across the fucking field.

Need a ton more quick pitches. Definitely need more quick hitters. This delay running game is bullshit, as is the sideways attack.

Wisener and Blue looked terrific. 

How about a back over the middle a time or three? 

Unsatisfying.

Took them 35 seconds to walk down field. Our shit fucking garbage joke 5 stars can’t run one play in 35 seconds 

we also gave them 20 yards in penalties, and Pavia is lights fucking OUT at throwing the ball into the ground as hes about to get munched for a 10 yard sack. 

so they either had an incomplete time stopper or they threw for 12 yards on every play. got a free clock stop after a first down when they declined our offside penalty.

 

it was the standard bullshit prevent defense that everyone goes to with a lead that murders the betting line and allows more than half the teams to come from behind and win.

I dont fucking understand the point of changing your defense the last 2 mins of a game when you have been dominating and just ole and give them 14 yards per play.

We will be awesome in the playoffs.

sark can be both a HC and OC and win the big one. 

we will cut out the penalties…

Make sure you tell these people to meet you on Rainey.

The OL is perplexing.  Texas went from never missing an assignment early in the year to borderline expecting it to happen most plays

As some guy said, Just win baby

As others said, great time for the bye. Someone from the psychology department needs to be chatting with QE. Find a punter, there’s got to be one on Dirty. Get Wingo and Helm involved more. Good things happen when they get the ball. 
It looked like Blue is back.

Man, wtf has been up with the oline last 3 games. Is the headset the issue now and QE isn't good at relaying the plays to them?

[Huckleberry 32931]

People are correct that Ewers has not looked great the last few weeks. But I'm not sure why he's being singled out. The entire offense has looked like shit with the possible exception of Wisner, Helm, and the small amount of Blue this week. QB, OL, WR, coaching. It's all been ass.

I don't see a shootout unless the offense turns the ball over a lot.
