when you don't have a mobile QB he has no chance to bail you out of shitty calls, missed OL assigments, and eliminates the D needing to account for it(which helps the running game).

Ewers is good and he won 11 games but he's not going to throw you to a win over 60 minutes against DC's that know what they are doing.

Exactly.  He did enough to win to be  considering the 2 missed FGs.  The problem is that we couldn’t run the ball worth shit and if you’re banking on Quinn balling out against Georgia, that’s a recipe for a loss.  It is what it is.  The reality is the difference in this game was the Georgia kicker made his kicks and ours didn’t.  That’s the difference.  If Bert makes one of those, everyone here is sucking each other dicks.

Our kicking game needs a BIG upgrade before next year.

Kicking and punting unless you're including both in "kicking". Also, maybe watch for the fake a little better.

GA probably has the 2nd best Dline in college football, hell probably better than some NFL teams

I mean, they're ranked 43rd against the run. If this offensive line is so kick ass you impose your will regardless of who's lined up across from you. I think it's safe to say this OL is good, not great.

Kirby smart is 1A to Dabo’s 1B of slimy no talent ass fucking pussies. 
 

The only response is to beat him into a pulp every time from now on until he fakes a coronary and retires.

Despite it all we had every opportunity to win. They had their backup qb in and they ran it down our throat. Stfu. 

Wrong.  There was no chance from the start of the fixed game. 
Also, fuck off noob.  

[Jkwellborn 7005]

Unless we play Army or some bottom rung we are prob one and done as well. Bama will fuck us up if we draw them 

Milroe will probably run for 250.

[NBHorn7 247]

Bond has been hurt for weeks, and it's made a difference, he went from the leading receiver to almost an afterthought. It would have been better to have just set him down till he got healthy with the bad ankle. He just kept hurting it every week. Today he finally just had to hop off the field. He was certain first round draft choice till the injury. He will still get some consideration because when healthy he is a real weapon

[D3zii 3911]

I feel like Sark out schemes hisself. 
he gets down to the 25 and does these long development plays for what???!?

 

we were killing them on the short passes. I’m not understanding why Sark was so hellbent on the long throws. 
Wasn’t he known for his short passing game and letting WR work?? They did today and we went away from it.

Funny the two missed field goals were right after huge sacks Quinn took to make them further.

Sure that’s a fair statement.  How many teams can say what you just posted.  Oregon?  Truth is that we got 2 #1 QBs.  One isn’t who we thought he’d be.  He’s a game manager that struggles with pressure.  The other guy isn’t ready yet.  How many of you forget that we already benched Quinn against UGA only to see Manning come in, struggle and fumble the ball.  Unless you want to ruin him, just be patient.  We can still win it all with Quinn.  For fucks sake, we were 1 play last year from playing for a national championship and we have a very favorable seed to get there this year.  I think the reality is that most posters can’t come to terms that Georgia has a better roster and better staff that Texas right now.  I bet that changes next year.

I don't think we can win a national championship with a game manager and no elite RB. Quinn played a lot better in this game but we are not going to win many playoff games when we can't score late in the game. This is our ceiling with Quinn unfortunately, which is not bad, when comparing with our recent history, but success is an insatiable beast that needs to be constantly fed.

Quick passes the window gets even smaller when you aren’t having to defend deep throws. 
 

Basically you need to put zip on the ball or evade the pass rush to complete a pass in the red zone. Neither thing Quinn can do.

This is it.  Uga didn’t have to account for Quinn.   Amazing what happens to that D when they play Haynes  King.    just a bad matchup for us.

If you aren’t worried at all about the QB running or passing and all you need to focus on is the run, it’s pretty simple to stop it.

Yeah but it’s not even a need for a mobile QB, it’s a QB with ANY fucking chance to run and we would’ve won the game easily. 
 

They pin their ears back and know he’s gonna be exactly in one spot like a statue on passing downs. 

[VaLonghorn99 358]

Tough game to watch. Feels like we lost this one ourselves. Missed FGs, offensive struggles in the red zone. I don't get why we don't give Manning a shot just for a change of pace if nothing else. It's like we did the same exact shit as last time we played GA and got the same result. It could have helped Ewers too but we'll never know. Still proud of the team and looking forward to the playoffs. \m/

We roasted them for 358 through the air. How would they not be worried about the pass? 

[deft 7041]

This. We broke off huge chunks in their ass whenever we wanted downfield and then would go back to rushing for a loss of 3. This was the most passing yardage all year. By far.

Were you watching the game?

We got yards on a couple big plays but couldn’t score with a short field. Only scored one touchdown the whole fucking game. 
 

Two interceptions and six sacks

 

We didn’t lose because we were just passing all over them. We lost because our QB sucked shit for the 3rd week in a row.

 

Our defense is the only reason we are competitive

All while scoring a whopping 19 points with 3 of them coming in overtime. 
 

We aren’t an effective offense right now, yards don’t mean jack shit if you can’t score. And you can’t score because you keep getting sacked. You can’t score because you throw interceptions. You can’t score because you can’t move the ball in the red zone, that’s the passing game failing. 

[Sgt Hulk 14329]

I watched a dozen plays tonight by makuba.  Every play he makes he comes in looking to end someone’s life.  Hes so fast and tries to run through someone’s face. That hit on the qb will go down in gif history.  That was a bright spot I hope we can some how keep him one more season. 

[Knighthawk 295]

If we play Uga again Sark will have to go with Arch.    Pretty sure he could punk those guys.     We have enough data on Quinn versus Uga … just a really poor matchup.

I think Makuba is a senior. He’s definitely one of the better safeties we’ve had in recent history

The whole fucking defense is some killers. 
 

they are being let down so bad by the offense 

Now Sark has less time to clean it up

And now we’ve got to win 4 more to win it all

Why doesn’t Sark just start him

Or Owens

Any QB who will stand in there and make the throws instead of pussing out.

[IBuryPaul 282]

Very disappointing. Defense plays lights out until the final play. You know Beck can’t throw so why isn’t the los stacked?  Q isn’t making reads when the D challenges his brain. Best team Texas has had since ‘09 or maybe’05. And it’s being wasted.

When Sark call up the middle for zero or minus yds and we go 3/out defense was getting a bit gassed. OL + Shirley Temple field goal kicker, and ST + Stubborn Sark lost this one.

They dont own shit. That was a meaningless victory. I care about national titles. I wouldve loved to have won it but it really isnt a biggy. That was a good tune up for the playoffs, it showed us our problems. We are playing well enough to beat anyone and we got a bad game out of our system.

It's crazy that all those classes he's stacked, he's only been to the playoffs 3 times. 2017/2021/2022. I guess 4 now, but he's been there for 9 years. It's not like Georgia is a constant CFP player. Now that it's gone to 12, sure, he'll get there, but before that, it was just 3 times. Just 1 more time than Michigan, and 1 more title. It's pretty sobering when you think about it, especially with all the talent he had acquired in all that time. Saban mopped his ass consistently. He's a good coach, but he also has the same amount of titles as Dabo. They keep saying UGA is the king of the SEC, yet they only have 2 titles. They're good, but not great by any means.

He has definitely stacked blue chips in the top 3 level for enough consecutive years to have as good a roster as can be had. Having to contend with Saban and his also thoroughly blue-chip teams threw a wrench in his goals more than a few times. But, I'm sure he's had a learning curve to headcoaching that is required above and beyond having the talent. Sark is taking his lumps now. We'll see how far he goes. Does a lot right, but from the comfort of my couch, he has lessons to learn too.

Texas won the majority of regular plays in this game. Georgia won the vast majority of the critical plays (that includes vs the Texas defense). It was like playing the Chiefs. They play like shit most the game, but you know if it is close in the 4Q they will win. That is what championship teams do

Eh.  The weaknesses we've showed against UGa are the same ones we've mostly showed all year.

We got some bad bounces, a couple of bad penalties, but some pretty big self-inflicted wounds and not all on the OL/Cam Williams for once.   So, those were bad things that could have changed the outcome, but other than the penalties, we are who we are.

The good news, though, is not many/any of the remaining teams are as well-suited as Georgia to completely stymie our offense.  Maybe Alabama, Notre Dame.

[SpiralOut 1954]

Eh, the problems we've had all season are still the problems that are ensuring this team won't win the Natty.

Special teams is ass, specifically Sideshow Bob is mega ass.  I don't expect college kickers to be automatic from 55+, but how are you 50% on shit from around 40?  Inexcusable that he's the best we can trot out there.  Punter is also ass.  Guarantee you there are some soccer players in Austin that play intramurals that would be better than those two.

Penalties.  Team is wildly undisciplined.  Seen the offense have drives stall all year long because of a stupid holding penalty or some other fuck up.  That's a coaching problem that comes straight from Sark.  These things should have been fixed in the spring before the season even started.  Instead, we're losing the league title because we never bothered to address it.

Ewers.  Dude looks worse than last year.  Most un-clutch player I've seen in a long time.  Has major problems with his game that neither Sark or any other coaches have bothered to fix.  Lazy floater passes.  Bad pocket awareness.  Self sacking.  The list goes on.  It feels like we're being held hostage by this Opie looking motherfucker who seemingly doesn't give a fuck whether we win or lose.  When is the last time you saw Ewers fired up?  Like, selling out on a play, visibly amped up, talking shit to the defense, etc.  Dude looks as motivated as the local stoner kid stocking shelves at Walmart.  Yeah, he's going to throw a great ball every now and again, but on the whole he's a check down merchant who can't/won't run and will bonehead it up multiple times a game just to make sure he fucks us. 

I imagine we can beat a team like Indiana who are complete frauds, but we're never beating this Georgia squad and Quinn and this offense are never beating a legit defense.  We've got the #1 defense in the nation which in any other year means we'd be a lock for the Natty.  Nope.  Not this year.
