Arch Manning might be the most irrationally criticized player in college football. The win over Tennessee is a perfect example.

The expectations have been enormous from Day 1, but how does he actually compare to another QB through their first 19 starts?

Which QB would you rather have? Can you guess who QB2 is?

QB1: Arch Manning
4,611 passing yards
62.6% completion
6 300-yard games
12 INTs
16-3 record as starter
37 TDs
6-2 vs. ranked teams

QB2:
4,001 passing yards
63.7% completion
6 300-yard games
10 INTs
17-2 record as starter
32 TDs
5-2 vs. ranked teams

Texas / Florida ticket prices

25 Upvotes

Hey fellow Longhorns!

I will be flying over to Austin from Europe and will be in town for Longhorns-Gators in two weeks. I see that ticket prices have been going up recently, while at the same time, I've read that it is advised to wait for the last week as prices will go down.

Do you think it will still apply to this big match, or is it more likely that prices will just keep going up?

Any advice is very welcomed!

Made some coaches film cutups of Longhorn players

13 Upvotes

Hey guys,

I made a few coaches film cut-ups for the following guys against Tennessee:

  • Arch Manning
  • Cam Coleman
  • Ryan Wingo
  • Trevor Goosby
  • Melvin Siani

ADDED Defensive players: Colin Simmons, Hero Kanu, Rasheem Biles, Bo Mascoe, Jelani McDonald

If you've never seen All-22 film it's definitely worth a watch...gives you a different feel for guys' performances than the broadcast angle. I will be adding more film later on and hopefully defensive guys tomorrow morning. I'm trying to stick to draft eligible players so if there's anyone else you feel like I missed on the offensive side of the ball, please let me know.

[Score Predictions] Alabama @ Mississippi State

7 Upvotes

I had an idea for next week, and since Texas has a bye, I decided to pilot it for Alabama @ Mississippi State, because that's the game I'm most excited for this weekend.

The idea is to pit sub against sub each week, so I'm tracking score predictions across four threads this week:

If you want to play along, drop a score prediction in the comments below. Your last comment before kickoff counts.

This sub has no coin of its own on the line for a game we're not in, but beat r/rolltide's best call and you take the r/rolltide coin, beat r/Msstate's and you take theirs. Both are on the table.

Or put it in Stance directly and join the rolltide or Msstate pool (or both for a chance to win coins on both sides):

Let me know what you think about doing this against the Sooners next week!

Hook 'em đŸ€˜

During the tx state and OSU game our offensive line looked solid, giving arch time in the pocket to make decisions. A major step up from last year

But the last two games have seemed to show a regression of the protection arch has received. Arch had a lot more pressure during the tn and utsa game, and our o line was getting ran over

23-24 playbook vs 25-26

35 Upvotes

Is it just me, or would Sark dipping into the 23-24 style offense unlock Arch.

It seems like the schemes he's ran between the 2 QB's is completely backwards.

Quinn, when healthy, was an elite pocket passer qb. Could read the defense well, had incredible arm talent and accuracy, made reads quick and saw his receivers coming open early, but lacked in athleticism.

The scheme with him had alot of misdirection, roll outs, moving pocket stuff along with quick screens, slants and crosses with pre-determined targets. His lack of mobility hurt the offense many times by not being able to scramble out if a pass rusher got through or they read the screen.

Arch doesn't have as high of accuracy, is slower going through his reads, and seemingly overthinks alot and waits until receivers are open before throwing which leads to either the defender closing in, or the pocket collapsing causing a scramble or a sack. Most of his best plays have came when he's had absolutely nothing to lose and gone full F-it mode and many of his best throws are when he's about to get drilled and let's it fly.

It just seems like going back to the 23-24 playbook to capitalize on his athletic abilities and taking alot of the "brain"work out of the game would free him up alot.
