Texas vs. Arkansas - 11:00am on ABC

[Mdhorn 5927]

Ewers has feet of concrete.  He's good, not great.  Would be nice if he could head look off the safeties more but I guess that has to be a called play.  We're not even attempting to run.

There is only one adjustment that may work.

They better let Barron catch a pass today.

Let him play QB. Can’t be much less effective.

This game is awful

I don't know. I enjoy watching our defense crush fools.

[perfectchaos007 6603]

I don't want our program to look like Iowa. Our defense is great but our offense can't execute. 10 points in a half is sub-par

That's a great punt if coverage guys don't let it hit the ground, just bad coverage.

Nah, the punt took a huge hop off the turf.  They were in position, but there was  nothing they could really do given the bounce it took.

the guy never signaled fair catch. 

You still cant hit the guy before the ball gets there, which is why they threw the flag. 

[Bevoette 1265]

I mean what the actual fuck is going on with our own line? And too many drop passes. I'm happy to be up 10 to nothing but it should easily be more like 28 to nothing. I'm a picky bitch y'all! Now I'm getting ready to head to a brewery in Houston with my son-in-law and daughter so hopefully we'll kick ass.

Awful bounce...

Not if you are Arky

[Huckleberry 32738]

I just hope Sarkisian and his staff are paying attention to how open deep crossers are. Every time they show us on that route from the all 22 angle it's open. Man, zone, doesn't matter. 

[texastroubadour 1208]

D will need to win this for us. Pathetic offense

[clownin72 197]

The adjustment comes from a qb replacement. One that can actually move in the pocket and scramble if he has to

I haven’t been there but I’m getting there. It’s just so clear that he’s not capable at this point of the level needed.

[VirginiaLonghorn 4759]

What’s sad is this is being characterized as a “defensive struggle …”

[Drew 2373]

We might win the 23-6 and be absolutely suffocating snd all anyone will say is we sucked cause we didn’t get 69. 

[RPM 26267]

Somebody needs to seriously un-fuck Quinn's head or pull the plug.

[Braff Zacklin 13474]

Thank fucking god that this Texas defense is legit.

 

Ewers averaged 4.3 yards per attempt against Arkansas' mighty secondary. He also self-sacked three times.

You're right it doesn't matter because Quinn fucking sucks.

[52-80 19127]

Goddamn this offense is impotent

[MonkeyDoughnut 10184]

Any other coach would bring in Arch just to get a spark if nothing else. Nothing to lose at this point. This loaded offense hasn't been right for weeks now

We’re going to see the backup QB in second half.

[Stunns38 3438]

Arky has looked like dogshit and we are letting them hang around. Sark needs to stop being a pussy and stop babying a fucking upper class man QB with 3 years in your system. Bench him if need be

Our O-line wasn't terrible that half. 

Quinn ran into most of those sacks. He has zero pocket awareness. Not only does he not avoid pressure but he actually runs into it. 

[DanTheHorn 4903]

Defense did a great job and gave the ball to offense with great field position to only be up by 10.

He decided to double clutch the throw and run right into a rusher. It’s just bad comedy at this point. 

This is what I imagine the phone calls are like to the booth every time Quinn self sacks.

[Steelers Roll Left 1161]

Tough place for Sark to be.  Defense is elite.  But any championship aspirations would probably require a change at QB he’s unlikely to make, and making that change in week 12 might be too late anyway

[Vic Mackey 46972]

I know we haven't had good QB play in forever, but I am pretty sure this team would have been light years better with Sam Ehlinger.

Sam is way better than Quinn.

[AUS-97HORN 11726]

man

 

the defense is balling out.... but its so fucking close right now.

 

we fucking need points.

 

FUCK   all the stupid drops and dumb plays (and that non DPI call_ have cost us a min of 7 points  4 for the DPI plus a FG if we dont catch  negative 15 yards back to back on 2nd and 3rd down.

or Q either fucking throwing a floater that gets tipped/defended vs him fucking launchgin the ball 8 yards past the fastest WR

What the fuck is going on with the special teams? Run up and fair catch the fucking punt. 

He lost it in the sun. Thought that looked pretty obvious

[burntorangebongos 10709]

You know what? Maybe Sark needs to bench Ewers so he can get his head straight! He is not even being adequate. He has regressed and we have too much on the line for where ever his head is.. 

[clownin72 197]

Defense is pretty fkn stellar. Quinn just keeps Quinnin. Just a little spark from Arch would be a nice start

[TexArcher 37662]

We have 10 points on 158 yards against the 90th ranked defense.

We'd better hang at least 21 on these guys in the second half.

[Bodowned 709]

15/23 for 100 yards and 3 self-sacks

Put Arch in and run some ZR and take a few shots down the field. The worst indictment of this offense is that it’s not even fun to watch. There’s no explosive plays; it’s actually a fucking chore to get through a drive. You’re just watching and hoping they don’t trip over their own dicks and turn the ball over. Any play that goes for 5 yards feels like you’ve won the Super Bowl.

[DixonHur 11276]

Live look at the team talking to Ewers at halftime...

[UTEE97 3475]

PFF is going to start tracking self-sacking and call it Quinn sacks.

Can’t knock Green out of the game. He’s keeping us in it.

Exactly.  It's not even just the shitty passing.  Fucking Case McCoy would have 75 yds rushing in the 1st half of this game.

[runthebone 7949]

There are wide open running lanes for our QB, but he just can't get there.  I've been reluctant but would also put Arch in.

[taybo20 2825]

The offense sucks ass especially when there is no deep threat. And Quinn is not a deep threat. He is ready to fall over with a breeze however

I think we probably should, but we won’t. And we will win this game easily and a bunch of jackasses will pretend that there’s not a problem at QB.

[bad_teammate 13182]

I do not believe Arch Manning is some ready-made golden god waiting on the bench because Sark is stubborn or made political promises or anything. I do not think we've automatically got a better QB just sitting there. I don't think our playoff/championship hopes improve if Arch is at QB.

All I do know is that I'm fucking tired of watching Quinn Ewers self-sack and pussyfoot and create basically nothing unless everything lines up almost perfectly for him. It's just boring and frustrating to watch as a fan. Uninspired and scared shit.

Sark's primary job is to win, and that's more important than entertaining or pleasing me, though, so we have what we have out there.

[Thatguy 8568]

6 minutes ago, HtownHorn said:

Nah, it's Ewers that struggles. He's missed 3 or 4 wide open WRs down the field. Should be 21-0 or better.

We've played against 3-3-5s with multiple QBs under Sark and struggled consistently across the board. I agree Quinn is struggling but we've seen this before with other QBs.

[Carl Spackler 3473]

On the bright side, we played relatively clean in the first half.  No TO's and only one penalty.  Continue playing clean with a lead and the defense hitting on all 8, and chances are good.
