    Here we go guys and gals!  All goals in front of the team they began the season with.  Time to go win a rivalry game in a very hostile environment!

  • I don’t know what the remedy is for Ewers. I don’t know if there is a remedy for Ewers. This might just be who he is. And if it is, it’s a damn shame because the rest of this team is good enough to wi

Arkansas three high is causing issues, much like what we saw vs. TCU and Iowa State in previous years.

This is annoying because they have seen this many times being in the Big12. 

Don't want to overreact but Ewers has got to be better period. No more excuses, guys are running free. Back to no pocket awareness and some of those sacks are on him. 

Got to do better or run the ball. We are letting them hang around and have seen this before. Damn shame. Defense is awesome but they will be tested this half. Ewers apologists I feel ya , but he ain't it today!

Texas had a 3rd and 2 pop pass lose 8 yards.

A 2nd and 4 screen for -7 yards.

Three third down sacks taken.

They are playing ahead of the chains for the most part, then instantly giving the position back with a negative play.

This is embarrassing for Sark, his play calling and his offense.   

It’s execution not play calling

Well, how many times did Texas light those defenses up?

Forgive me if I’m wrong, but this is no Iowa State 3 high.  This is a bye week installed 3 high that we ought to be able to figure out how to exploit.

So how do you counteract that? Seems like quick and screen passes. What I’m constantly getting frustrated with is he won’t take the easy 3-4 yards to just step up in the pocket and move the sticks.

Bingo.  Their secondary stinks.  It can’t just be “welp it’s the 3 high what did you expect”.

From week two vs. Oklahoma State. Condensed version of their cover three on a third and five. It has been around.

It’s both. These are not good play calls. Most of Sarks routes are taking too long to develop too far downfield. There is no quick hitting slants are even a crossing route to get the safeties having to come downhill. 

The inside run game has been our most  consistent play. Sark gets too cute sometimes. He can’t stand it if his plays don’t look genius on paper.

Well he is. Arkansas is tackling very well today.

I'd rather have a third grader punting than Kern. Why does everyone in the country know how to punt out of bounds but him?

The gunners misplayed the ball on the last punt.

Huge mistake by the staff not getting an experienced Punter in the Portal

Because there aren’t many if at all 1on1 situations.  They have 2+ guys around our ball carriers.  It looks like a defense that had 2 weeks to prepare for the sark misdirection and we don’t have a counter punch.

We need a defensive score to bury them. We go up by 17 then turn the hounds loose. 

Well the offense is obviously not going to do it….
