And Texas was picked to win the SEC at media days


Everyone and their brother thought that Txeas would be good. Our D is still pretty good. Our special teams are pretty good and are the only reason we were able to hang with Kentucky. Our offense is an abortion.

We were all wrong about the Texas offense for 2 reasons:

#1 Arch has regressed. No one expected him to take a giant step back. Does he have the yips because he all the sudden can't handle pressure? Is he doing drugs? Is someone in his family fighting a private battle with cancer and he can't focus? Did he always suck and his good moments last season were the anomalies?

#2 I was worried about the Texas o-line on paper. We came into the year starting 1 5*, one guy who was barely a 4* and 3 guys that were low 3*s. Most of the Big 12 has more talent on their starting o-line than Texas. Sark convicned everyone that the * rankings were wrong and the Texas coaches were right. They insisted we had the dudes. 13 of 16 SEC teams added an o-lineman in the portal. Texas did not. This was after losing 4 o-line starters.

Texas will go 2-3 in our remaining 5 games. We will likely get smoked in our bowl game.

Texas sucks. We know. The o line needs to be replaced.

If Arch was playing exactly the same as last year, we might be undefeated. Remember, Ohio State in week 1 in Columbus was a 1 score game. We doubled up the rushing total of Ohio State.

It isn't that Arch hasn't improved. It is that his vacillating mental state causes him to play games in which he literally cannot complete a short pass to a wide open receiver who is standing still. I've never seen anything like this.

Ohio state was coasting and trying to run clock in the end with a two touchdown lead. You score a td at the end of the game

Yet every major program wanted him even if he wasn't the top of their QB wishlist at the time he came out. Yes, even your program. (Anyone reading this)

You played 1, Georgia. None of the other teams finished the season ranked.
Clemson and Arizona State absolutely finished the season ranked

And what is Texas supposed to do? Lose to make sure those teams can stay ranked? Great strategy

Clemson had 3 losses already and Arizona St had 2
I hate to break this to you, but SEC champion Georgia and eventual national champion Ohio State also went into the playoffs with 2 losses

A good example of why the current playoff format is absolute dog shite
I don’t necessarily disagree with this. Should’ve stayed at 4 teams

Bama makes your quarterbacks quit and you think this is a bad thing for Bama?
lol no. Bama takes cheap shots because they’re scared shitless of Texas’ starting QBs. This has been empirically proven over time

I dont know him personally so im obviously not talking about him as a person
you called him a turd which would indicate more of a personal attack than a critique of his plus

Those are called POST season games.

For the most part, they lost to good teams. Arizona St lost to shitty teams. Clemson lost 3 games.

Not all teams with the same record are equal. Georgia lost to Alabama and Ole Miss, top 15 teams. Arizona St lost to 5-7 Cincy and 8-5 Texas Tech.

The amount of tu homers pouring in to defend Arch’s is right on brand. Zero self awareness.

You’re arguing with a guy who legit gets on this site looking to kill time arguing. There is no point and you’re just talking to a wall.

Obsess much? Football is played by teams, the team from Texas beat the team from Kentucky and last I saw, Arch was QB1 at Texas. I don't think anything happened to change that.

You said Texas lost to every ranked team they played (which was false btw). So now post season games don’t count? You never made that distinction

Georgia lost to Alabama and Ole Miss, top 15 teams. Arizona St lost to 5-7 Cincy and 8-5 Texas Tech.
Alabama lost to Vanderbilt. Texas beat Vanderbilt in the same building

Ole Miss lost to Kentucky and Florida. Texas dominated those teams.
