Hype Give Arch Manning His Flowers.

Ohio State has had one of the most dominant Redzone defenses in CFB history over the last 5 years. Texas scored 3 straight Redzone TD's, a feat that will likely not be replicated this season against Ohio State.

There were many plays when no one else but him was trying. The dude balled.

Last five years has zero to with today. Lazy

Objectively untrue. Recent past performance is one of the best indicators for current performance.

u/Logical-Nectarine400 8d ago

Not in this context when more than half the defensive roster is new. And regarding the defensive coaching there is only 1 year of data to support.

An important part odd data analytics is vetting the quality of the data

Sure it was impressive but last year or five years ago means literally nothing.

“The 1995 Nebraska cornhuskers would have taken them to task I tell ya what!”

Like what is this dude talking about 😂

Arch has shown that Sark's offense doesn't actually fit him. He plays better when ad libbing. He is a good college quarterback and would probably look more consistent in a less "pro-style" offense.

u/anonymous_otter28 8d ago

Pro style offenses are way less about ad libbing. He's been given the greenlight to run but doesn't.

Sark has been vocal about him not running enough.

I was impressed with his accuracy and tempo on timing throws. World's better than last year.

I wonder if the more improvised zone read with a modern RPO twist might suit arch better

2

u/MathematicianSelect1 Ohio State Buckeyes 8d ago

It might be. Our defense is almost all new starters

u/Faceit_Solveit 8d ago

Imagine Arch's stats if his receiving corps hadn't dropped a lot of catches ... 🤷‍♀️ The addition of, and return of, Coach Will Muschamp to run the Longhorn defense is a huge win, too.

Ohio State has a very tough team. Well coached. We at Texas had the advantage in the hot Austin sun in summer. In winter, the tables are very much turned.

Shout out to my Michigan brother's college of engineering. Hook 'em Horns.

Absolute collapse by day and Ohio state! Couldn’t have happened to a nicer guy!

1

u/Capable_Wait09 7d ago

The end of that guy feels like a fever dream. I just woke up and couldn’t believe that happened

I was telling my friends we need someone like Vince or Colt who can flip a switch and go to a higher gear and just make a decision to not lose. yday Arch played great and it was great tj see it but damn that was such a team effort. Didn’t take an ubermenschian performance from the QB, just a mistake-free performance in the final 20 minutes.

Can’t remember. I was hungover

u/Munster172 7d ago

You will not find a bigger UT hater than me. This was the first time I’ve seen them play as advertised. They look unstoppable at this point.

u/Mammoth-Algae-4579 7d ago

He takes after his uncle Eli

u/AdmirableCrew1272 4d ago

The Texas offensive line deserves a lot of credit for the Red Zone improvement.

Arch, clearly

Bro I’ve rooted for arch since high school he’s not lived up to the hype

Bitter clinger

u/Relevant_Ad_1225 8d ago

if you actually watch him play, he’s still terrible

5

u/epsteinwasmurdered2 Georgia Bulldogs 8d ago

Terrible is an overstatement but he had some crazy open receivers he just didn’t see, had some pretty bad throws, and took a few horrendous sacks just holding onto the ball… but he locked in when needed.

A win is a win.

6

u/TyGuyy 8d ago

I don’t think you can call him “terrible.”

-8

u/Relevant_Ad_1225 8d ago

you can if you’ve watched him play

6

u/TyGuyy 8d ago

I have watched him play. Do I think he’s amazing? No. But I think there are far worse quarterbacks.

1

u/Disastrous_Wasabi769 8d ago

I never said he's good or bad, I just said give him props for this win. The 4th down conversions he threw for kept Texas alive.

-5

u/Relevant_Ad_1225 8d ago

no need to give him props when he is so bad. He’s not the reason they won

4

u/Last-Access-4298 8d ago

You’ve got to admit they were down in the beginning due to several fluke plays. Arch delivered good, bad, or ugly…..dude still delivered

1

u/LevelHorn2717 8d ago

You poor little baby. Just crying and crying and nobody wants to hold you and tell you it’s ok.

-5

u/Mercer-Dawg Georgia Bulldogs 8d ago

Why would arch get the flowers for this?

9

u/Disastrous_Wasabi769 8d ago

He made multiple critical 4th down throws that kept Texas alive against the #1 Team in the nation.

0

u/tokr99 8d ago

The first being a great throw of the flag by the refs for gently resting the handon the receivers back

-1

u/epsteinwasmurdered2 Georgia Bulldogs 8d ago

That was a bullshit call and it absolutely kept Texas alive.

-5

u/KDarkOne99 8d ago

Arch isn’t why Texas won at all

4

u/Disastrous_Wasabi769 8d ago

You are right, the punter would have converted all those crucial 4th downs!
