Second Watch: Texas Found Offensive FIX—Will Sark Use It?

from On Texas Football Hosted by Bobby Burton

Jeff Howe and Rod Babers return to the film to uncover the clearest solution for Texas’ inconsistent offense: more four-receiver, 10-personnel formations. The Longhorns produced 83 yards and two touchdowns on only eight snaps from the package against Oklahoma, while converting both third-down opportunities. Rod explains why Steve Sarkisian should double its usage, get Jermaine Bishop on the field and stop abandoning concepts that are working.The guys also reveal why Arch Manning’s performance against the blitz was better than it appeared, completing 9-of-11 passes for 146 yards and two touchdowns before his costly interception. Plus, they examine Sark’s questionable play sequencing, Derrek Cooper disappearing after a productive first half and how Oklahoma simplified its offense to protect John Mateer and neutralize Colin Simmons. With Florida next, Sark has reached a defining crossroads in how he builds this offense.
