00:00With Texas losing to Ohio State, you and I were just talking about how they butchered
00:06that ball at the one.
00:08First and goal from the one, first and one.
00:10And they run sideways and they fumble and butcher the whole thing.
00:15And meanwhile, across the front, they got 6'5", 350 average on that front line.
00:21Like, how soft are you?
00:23You can't push them one yard?
00:25Yeah, there's no doubt.
00:29They're Texas.
00:30That's a Texas long.
00:31I don't care if it is Ohio State.
00:33You ought to be able to pound it four times and get a yard.
00:35Don't take a loss.
00:36Don't allow penetration.
00:38Don't allow the edge until you're running back to get your head in a crack and push
00:42a crack.
00:43And you're going to get one yard and four downs.
00:45But don't go sideways.
00:47You lose seven, now you got to throw it on third and seven, throw it on fourth and seven.
00:52It basically was a call that I don't understand.
00:55I don't have their game plan.
00:57I don't have what they thought they saw.
00:59But they've got so much speed going sideways.
01:02It cost them a chance to tie the game, probably a chance to go into overtime with a chance
01:06to win.
01:07I mean, they were going to tie the game, and instead they fumble, he goes 83 yards hizzy,
01:18and now you lose by 14, and then all the betters are screwed.
01:22But they wouldn't have covered anyway.
01:24They wouldn't have covered anyway.
01:25They were down seven.
01:26They might have, but when they fumbled, the cover was over.
01:31Yeah.
01:32And you got to remember, it's only two plays.
01:34They have a 75-yard screen, which I think Texas did a poor job, 13 seconds left in the
01:39half, and they played, they rushed people hard, and they played their secondary way
01:44back, and it's a pure screen situation.
01:47That's where people screen with 75 yards, one play touchdown, and then the scoop and
01:51score was another touchdown.
01:53That's 14 points.
01:54That's the difference in the game on two big plays, and really, two of the three could
02:00have been prevented.
02:01So let me ask you a couple questions about Texas.
02:05If you were coaching Texas, honestly, would you have played Arch Manning more than this
02:12guy Ewers?
02:13The way he was loyal to that Ewers guy, it baffled me, because I think, I frankly, without
02:20a doubt, I think Arch Manning's better, and he's going to have a gigantic career in the
02:25NFL, and I do not believe Quinn Ewers will.
02:27Yeah, you know, I will say in my mind that there's still a good argument either way,
02:33depending on what they see every day in practice, but they needed a spark.
02:36Remember when Arch Manning went in one play, made a critical first down on the run, that
02:42would have easily been the spark.
02:44So I can't put myself in their shoes in regards to how good he's been practicing all week
02:49and the difference in those two, but to me, they could bring him in at the end, not only
02:54do they have a chance to win the game, because I think he plays as well or better than Quinn
02:58Ewers most of the time, and so that would have, to me, that gave them a chance not only
03:03to get the win, but also to lift him for the future.
03:08But I will say this, I don't watch practice every day and how close that is in getting
03:13the game plan, but Arch, he knows football pretty good.
