Arch can't look at two different locations at the same time.

In fact I’d take Arch over just about all but 1 QB in the SEC right now (Chambliss).


For real? Because there are 10 quarterbacks who are statistically better than him

well obviously since Mateer has better stats, I would take Mateer over Manning

I hope arch can pick it up like he did in the second half of last season. Maybe he’s just a slow starter. Maybe it’s Sarkisian’s playcalling I don’t know, but I do know. All he has to do is be an above average game manager for this team to win a national title. Just don’t lose us the games he does seem to play better when it matters most and gets the job done.

The question I want an answer to is how is it Arch Manning's stats are on par with a QB whose play has been so bad an entire fanbase wants the coach to play his backup?

That’s my point. OU fans would gladly trade Mateer for a few of the names on this list. Arch’s mediocrity hasn't cost you a game yet though.

Sarks big problem as a coach is he recruits the wrong kind of QB for his system. He should go after the kid that processes quickly and goes, not guys liken Quinn and Arch. They are great kids but DO NOT see the field or understand Sarks offense. In the Tenn game receivers were breaking clear and Arch never looked their way.
You may have a point with Arch, but Quinn was a pocket passer and just what Sark looks for. He never lived up to his #1 hs recruit ranking, but how many #1's actually do? Same for Arch...who isn't the best QB in the country, but he's far from bad. Arch is at his best when the play breaks down and he escapes the pocket before throwing.

Because he's played well enough when he had to (tOSU) and our defense may have the best overall D-line in school history...and that includes the VY and Colt years.

Why hasn't our qb taking big foward steps as a starter. I mean i like our defense is great. But arch is suppose to be capable starting qb and he playing worse than fazion who is a true freshman. What is going on?

You need to brush up on your authentic Frontier gibberish.

49, what you say is true but it doesn't answer my question.

Maybe he was incredibly overhyped in high school playing 2a teams in Louisiana
But was given 5 stars because of his last name?

Perhaps, but that doesn't mean he isn't a good QB.

Last year he got electric when all seemed lost and he just decided he didn't GAF.

They are trying to stuff him in a box too much, let him be wild.
