If Ewers is what I believe him to be, is Sark completely incompetent or is Arch a bust?

I think Sark knows he has a rare opportunity with a physically gifted player who by virtue of winning the ancestral lottery has an understanding of the game at a level few kids come out of HS with.

He has been intentionally bringing him along slowly to give Arch (and subsequently himself) the best opportunity for success.

Whether it plays out that way will be something we see over the next 24 months. I feel about as good about it as one can feel for a QB with limited on-field work to make a determination on. No guarantees until it’s proven on the field.

thats what you get with a mercenary team. nobody is going to have and grit or character left in football.

Yeah, transfer portal and NIL are going to make things difficult for blue chip programs. Hard to maintain purchased loyalty, and even harder to motivate 18-21 year olds who previously saw the tireless work they put in as their ticket to NFL money. Not sure how to consistently motivate a late teen/early twenties kid who already has millions. Some may have that sort of drive, but I figure plenty are going to be a lesser player due to lack of hunger.

Not sure the offense is the issue at all - at least from a scheme standpoint. The offense has shown to be very effective. The issue, at least in my opinion, is the urgency the team plays with (or doesn’t play with) once they have the lead. It seems they get ahead, and feel very comfortable with average effort. Frequently, both offense and defense appear to lack the killer instinct required to bury an opponent. In their (limited) life experience, they can always just turn it on if needed. It doesn’t always work that way at this level, especially when the other team is playing with a chip on their shoulders. Just my $.02

Why do Aggies and Sooners make longhorn alters on the SEC rant?

I hope this is the case, but we have just as many a$$clowns as any other fan base, and the number appears to grow daily.

Texas really are the new kings of the SEC. Cope & seethe!

You’re a tool. Complete clown comment. Not every Texas fan is a complete douche.

Yeah it’s becoming obvious that the teams who played in week 1 are more “game ready” than teams with a bye

This was my thought watching Oregon get destroyed starting the game yesterday. OSU may very well be the better team, but by the time the ducks got their legs it was too late.

Any of the above except for B. Using response B for any sort of an excuse is a POS move. People died in a senseless manner, blaming anything that happens on the field to that is despicable.

Honestly, I doubt there are too many making excuses. The ones who do, would have regardless of how the season ended. Every team has those type of fans, and they are all pathetic.

In the end, if they lose, they made the playoffs by beating Texas with a backup. I for one, hope they win on the slim chance of getting another shot at them. An all-SEC championship is better than the potential for the title to head to one of the other conferences.

How is that? Both teams played in the rain.

Vastly underrated comment. Left the liberal fortress that is Austin almost two years ago for Texoma (two teenage daughters I didn’t want growing up in Austin) - no HEB here, and that part sucks.

This. 100%.
I’m all for some trash talk, but a failed marriage is out of bounds for me. I don’t care what team/school it involves. Same with young children, life threatening disease, and a host of other things which transcend football.
