    How was Ewers a #1 overall recruit with this arm? Serious question

    Texas isn't getting called for any holding on their OTs, either. Neither side really has much to complain about at this point.

    assuming arch isn’t concussed to hell, you should probably go to him at the half tbh

    Him and Christian Gray both love getting caught flat footed on vertical routes and then yanking on a shoulder pad. Every time.

    It was the same arm strength we’ve seen from him his entire career. This was an affirmation of a trend, not a one off occurrence.

    our offense is legit struggling aside from the opening drive and that last play. curious how they adjust at the half, because for the most part texas's defense has been pretty effective so far

    Should have let Arch throw the Hail Mary. Quin was off balance, but he doesn’t have 60 yards in him in the best case.

    Am I misremembering where the line of scrimmage was or is ewers not capable of throwing the ball 50 yards with a running start?

    20 year old me probably could have at least made that to the goal line

    Completely different backs. Having Judkins absorb all the hits and soften things up really helps too.

    I won’t disagree there, but I’d also contend there’s a reason NFL draft experts are higher on Henderson. His burst is incredibly underrated. Has really easy speed

    Which rankings - not refuting this but everything I've seen has Judkins ranked higher (and that's considering I have ever reason to wish this was not the case)

    CBS, ESPN, PFF, etc.
