Too Many Sacks, Too Many Turnovers | Doing Enough In-State Recruiting? | State of the Program | SEC

[@mickbiskit9979]

To many penalties...

[@zachrydouglas808]

Tony Brackens!!! Hometown legend. Fairfield, TX 🤘🏻🤘🏻

[@stevelinahan8022]

You missed the penalties that go with turn overs and sacks as drive killers and short field for the competition. Our O line miscommunication you covered well. Love our defense and love that we have over 7 chunk plays per game. We have what it takes to win it all but need to play better and eliminate our own mistakes.

[@bitfenix90]

I want to see O-line and D-line RESULTS from player development AND recruiting.

[@toddlacey8557]

All of Texas’ goals are still in front of them. The offense will step up. The defense is what it is and will be very good the rest of the season. Now Sark has to manufacture a winning formula for the rest of the season on offense and find its identity.

[@Brucev7]

'Mukuba may be better in pass coverage' Not may be, is. Kudos to Macdonald being the next man up

[@bigbigelk]

Why when Georgia was getting to Quinn, did they not get a fullback or linebacker to stay with him to block those Georgia linebackers?

[@johnpieratt1474]

Your LB or End suggested blocker would’ve helped Quinn immensely against Georgia. O Line must adjust to stunting defenses.

[@cestwhat1317]

UT Offense has over 1,000 yards!😀 …in penalties😢

[@curtisoeser5133]

I'm holding onto hope that Sark is playing Jedi mind games and has a plan for his offense to peak in phase 3 of the season and beyond

[@MckLonghorn]

Boy do I hope you’re right but I don’t see it happening

[@daxlkelm75]

Penalties have to be fixed.

[@notpoliticaljustarealist3969]

Byes came at perfect times this year. Hopefully we reset (again for quinn) and get ready for the most important stretch of their football life.

[@foodflights1408]

Look up "Tony Brackens hit on Texas Tech Kicker" if you want to see what kind of a monster he was in a 1-minute clip.

[@twitchentropy7786]

the Stepped-Up Quality of SACK Lunches is prescient

[@Brucev7]

8 games is too deep in the season for the number of continued mistakes.

[@wokemanishboi5003]

Again. When the run game gets better, Quinn and the offense will play better.

[@brucebarton2099]

Agreed 👍

[@n5ifi]

I'm not sure Texas can take another loss and make the playoffs with our schedule. We need to finish up our schedule without a loss.

[@notpoliticaljustarealist3969]

They can afford 1 more loss. As long as it comes at the last second of the sec championship. But another loss before would be possibly fatal

[@JosephSterle]

Agreed, and I think it’s unlikely. Unless we reverse some recent habits we’re not winning both at Arkansas and at A&M. Maybe neither. It’s gonna be a huge downer if we go from 6-0 ranked #1 to 9-3 and in some meaningless bowl game. They can still have everything in their control if they get serious fast. But right now the “standard” is either too low or else they’re not meeting it.

[@bitfenix90]

Arkansas and a&m will be tough. Anyone remember what a&m did to 2005 Longhorns by almost crushed Vince Young. I expect this far more from the ags, and Texas clearly does not a Single Game Savior like VY was.

[@Brucev7]

@@bitfenix90 Eric Hogan doesn't think AU is to be too concerned with. He said he watched them and they are up & down.

[@JosephSterle]

@ Exactly. And Arkansas treats games with Texas as some kind of holy war and we’ve not done well in the last several games against them. At least it’s not a night game (from what I saw). We’ve got a few weeks that might change my mind but if I had to bet my house right now on the A&M game I’d say they win. I hope Texas gives me more confidence soon.

[@blakejester6133]

🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻

[@DustyWilson-x7w]

Whats the latest on Jontay Cook? I heard rumblings that he may not be happy... Not sure if that means Transfer, but wanted to see if anyone had any updates

[@Daniel78104]

🤘🏼🤘🏼

[@joeinge4808]

Texas will be a “good” team but not a SEC winner or serious Natty contender until the offense goes to the next level

[@drm2364]

That could happen, beginning with Florida.

[@georgekallas700]

Bobby hopefully you just didn’t jinx us with the injury bug!

[@l.d.sullins2359]

Elite talent not playing to potential. Come on Longhorns, beat the Dickens out of these last 4. Win big in a championship run to make up for the 1st part of the season. Hook'Em

[@lxcameron406]

Why join SEC ? Should have stayed in a conference that you could win every year and get automatic bid to play offs ?

[@rwtindall]

🤑🤑🤑🤑🤑🤑🤑

[@ryannelson2653]

The vibes around this team feel like 9-3 now but I can’t wait to see our 2025 guys in Spring ball! Recruiting is a bright spot at least!

[@blakebryant7977]

The defense is too good to let this team lose 2 of their last 4 games.

[@lingerinlead80421]

The 9-3 vibe is your take, not the players.

[@notpoliticaljustarealist3969]

You ain't vibin right. Quinn gets back to Michigan quinn. We are fixing to make a hella run

[@lingerinlead80421]

@notpoliticaljustarealist3969 100%

[@theanthonyv]

Sloppiness all year long, every game, even in the lopsided wins over the cupcakes. Tentative play by Ewers, with an absent downfield or running threat. I don’t see any likelihood of us beating Arkansas and / or A&M on the road. 9-3 and Alamo Bowl. I realize I’m in the minority, but IMO, if Sark started Manning the rest of the way, we’d go 11-1. I think his errors would be outweighed by his athleticism. Alas, we won’t get to find out this year.

[@lingerinlead80421]

Arch has shown he is not ready. He is not adept at reading defenses yet. That only comes with experience. You think you have a better read on this team than Sark? Quinn has three years in the system. You can't replace that.

[@drm2364]

You should probably find another team then, if that's the way you feel.

[@theanthonyv]

@@lingerinlead80421 And yet, with all of that being true, there’s no confidence in Quinn throwing downfield. He’s not a threat to run either. He’s also shown questionable judgment regularly, attempting throws into very disadvantageous coverages. He persistently under-throws balls, throws behind receivers, and throws to the defender’s side of the play, where picks or knockdowns are much more likely. His eyes look hesitant, like he’s afraid. He doesn’t have on-field commanding presence. We’re throwing tons of check downs / screens, because, evidently, we need Quinn to get comfortable or ‘bounce back’. He’s a 3rd yr QB, early season Heisman favorite, and has CFP experience… why do we need to soft-pedal him like he’s fragile? No defensive coordinator is afraid of Ewers. If he starts all remaining games, we’re going 9-3. Manning is a Hail Mary, yes. But when he’s in the game the entire offense seems to get a spark and play with more enthusiasm and urgency. I understand why Sark is sticking with Ewers. But I don’t expect it to work. Just my opinion, could be proven wrong and hope I will be. We shall see.

[@Brucev7]

No, GU Teed off on 16. He's still raw behind the ears.
