PNG-ex Tate Sandell kicks game winning FG

[IndianFan]

So much for UT’s #1 ranking. A poor outing by overrated and overhyped Arch Manning did them in with two interceptions.

Congrats to Sandell.

It’s the high price of entering “corporate football” which UT was considered a top program at one time and won a “fluke” in 2005-6
But when this corporate system really started they were an outsider
The Big 10 and SEC were the first (the top teams - then they had to have the South Carolinas Vanderbilts MSU
then back then Indiana Purdue Northwestern etc to beat up on they were in the club but not really) they were the team the Globetrotters would beat up on (fair games but never allowed to take the top recruits in order to compete with Alabama Georgia and at one time UF LSU (others snuck in Auburn Tennessee etc)

But entering the next stage there will only be around 32 teams who truly compete
And UT had to start the NAME
They stole a Manning from Ole Miss and Tennessee in order to take one of the 32-40 corporate college football spots
They’re starting him for the “future” and they’ll be granted a NC later
Mind you
If manning was any good they would have let them compete for it this year
But they’re doing it for the clout and sacrificing this year for the name.

Right now it’s the Big 10 Vs The SEC

(Sound familiar) you could say North Vs south or Blue vs Grey)
I know it sounds tin foil hat but I think I’m right

The Big 12 and the ACC will compete for the scraps and one playoff spot each if they’re lucky
BYU vs Louisville (conference champs)
The PAC is the new Mountain West for now a non factor
IMO they will continue to consolidate conferences to 2 16-20 conference members and we ll fight the new civil war every year (similar to the 32 team NFL

The other colleges will play bowls vs each other but the Baylors UH Vandy TCU NW Purdue they’ll be relegated to the MAC or another initial conference
It’ll be similar to FBS vs FCS

It’s all about who can buy the best players now. Then it’s about having a talented coaching staff that can teach, motivate 18-22+ year olds and game plan.

In my opinion UT has a tendency for signing too many players that lack characteristics that make up great players and teams. Too much individualism.

Yes to this. In Fact two yesses to this. This also happens on a smaller scale in Texas high school football. Players are bought and moved to these super schools to stack a team to win state every year. A team graduates 10 D 1 recruits and miraculously they have 10 more the next year. Then every year after that with no drop off.

By the way predictions say Sandell will be drafted next draft if he keeps it up as high as possibly the 5th round Giving PN-G 2 players in the NFL. I can only guess that may be a first. He is considered the best kicker in all of college football by many. He won the best kicker in all of football last season. Finishing as the #1 kicker last year.

For Archie to star in multiple commercials before doing ANYTHING is wild
But that’s why he’s starting

I think Texas came in thinking they got this game because the way that OU has been playing recently and Texas got hit in the mouth in it.

The Manning kid was made out to be a legend before he even earned that designation. And he halfway believed it. Throwing for a lot of yards in high school against questionable competition does not qualify. As much as he reaches for that level, it doesn’t seem to be there. At least not yet. He can sling the football, but he makes poor decisions at the worst times. And too many bad throws.

This! And Sarks poor play calling, IMO.

Truth is it’s tough to win big every year at any level. We high school fans get chippy when our teams don’t play perfectly. But even the highly paid NIL and NFL teams make mistakes and lose too often. Perfect examples are the Texas Longhorns, Texas A&M Aggies and Dallas Cowboys. All three with incredible resources. All three looked like a team of boneheads led by clueless coaches this week.

Yeah. What are the odds. We all know. It is not the same as the teams that do well year in and year out in spite of not having 10 D1 recruits.

It seems that more often than not these coaches outsmart nobody but themselves.

No question he was overhyped, but imo he still has enough talent to be much better with better coaching and play calling. The play calling does not seem to take his strengths and weaknesses into account and he repeats too many of the same types of mistakes without effective correction.
