No. 3 Texas at Arkansas Game Week Thread
Haha nice! I know Vilonia! It’s so true that they love to hate Texas more than they love themselves!! I did undergrad in Fayetteville and was amazed at how much people kept bringing up Texas and how much they HATED Texas. It was so weird to me being from Austin.

I don’t know, I would say it’s still a big deal for those of us that remember to SWC before the hogs left. Arkansas definitely hates Texas more than we do them, however the heat will get turned up again now that we play them every year it’s a fun rivalry that reminds me of a better version of Texas tech.

Honestly, if Quinn can’t go that might be worse for Arkansas given how badly ole miss beat them up on the deep balls.

Probably more to do with the late run game effectiveness and Jackson coming back for the hogs IMO

I gotta nitpick you Bobby and Gerry
Big loss with CJ for sure. The running game issues seem more and more to be on the backs than the o line. Watching Gibson run yesterday he was able to run inside and follow blocking like we’ve seen the past few years here. Blue and Wisner are really athletic guys but both seem to lack the rb vision to attack the holes seriously or the depth of knowledge to read and react to where the defense is flowing during a play. Wisner is getting better but Blue just doesn’t seem to get it. I don’t think we couldn’t run the ball against Georgia because we don’t have a good O line. I think it’s the backs are too inexperienced and are a liability in big games with quality defenses. The games where UGA struggles are when teams establish and continue to develop the run game. I think sometimes we’re too worried about getting our QB going early and not concerned enough about getting our O line going. Tony Hills spoke to that this week on coffee and football. When you run block and play physical early it provides more umph to pass protection. Quinn didn’t play well against UGA, but us not being able to run the ball forced us to be one dimensional and allowed for Feorgia to tee off and exploit our tendencies in pass protection. Heck the Jets didn’t same thing to CJ Stroud a couple of weeks ago. No one is saying he’s trash or that their I line is a joke. It’s time for the offense to buckle up look at the man across the line and blow them off the ball. Impose our will, and we will break theirs. We have the talent and we have the strength. Gotta get it done. Pass protection doesn’t matter when you run the ball. If we had leaned on that early against Georgia and played field position a little bit we would’ve been able to weather the storm, allow Quinn to adjust, and figure out a counter to their defense. Instead it seems like we’ve been coming out trying to land books and upper cuts for the knockout in the first round instead of working the body and jabbing their defense. Work the body and you don’t let them breathe then those haymakers are easier to throw and land.

AGGIE JOKES. We should build a definitive repository.
You know why the chicken ranch in LaGrange really shut down? When Aggies found out it was women and not chickens they called the cops.

Florida plans to keep Napier...
That’s exactly what I thought!! They’re not just going to fire the guy without the next guy in the bag. See previous TAMU and Texas coaching debacles. They’re just gathering the evidence they need to minimize the buyout. Herman handed that to us on a silver platter, because he’s an arrogant narcissistic a-hole. Napier might be tougher than Tommy, he’s just not ready for the UF job.

But what about TAMU?! Surely they’ve been ranked that high and often at Texas right? Or at least they should’ve been if they were more of a corporate fake university and football program?!
