Week One Non-Uconn Games

Anyone who was actually paying attention realized Arch was overrated by his senior year in high school. He was a top-ish QB for the class on a par with the others. None who have set the world on fire either.

Julian Saylin (his opposite today) was similarly overrated during his junior year, but not being a Manning fell down the ranking a little (still, he is the starting QB for Ohio State). You will note that Saylin didn't exactly set the world on fire today either.

The Texas offense will gain some momentum against weaker teams and Arch will grow in confidence. Opening up the offense a bit will open up running lanes allowing him to be good college QB by midiseason (that and having NFL talent all around him, which never hurts).

Give the kid a bit of a break. This isn't a reprise of the Sanders hype where the kid ate it up and believed it. The Manning family has been trying to downplay things from day one (perhaps over doing it, if anything).

You also need to keep in mind that Arch is playing for one of the most overrated coaches in college football.

Have some dignity folks. You’ve won NCs.
And this isn’t even a top 5 Bama.

And that pretty dress would look better on me, honey..LOL

Heck...beat a top 10 ranked team, in your season opener after a miserable season, rush the field and pay the ACC the required $50,000 fine....

The field was rocking..fans engaged...the players came to play like they were eating iron and sh..ng nails....What you want to see...

Bama's touted O line with future NFL guys, was manhandled...Me? All I wanted out of FSU was to play with enthusiasm...I liked their hustle.

Now I was just old school...had Alexa put Otis Redding on..."Dock of the bay"...Watching the tide roll away.

Found the Manning family burner.

I agree but the Manning family wouldn't have let him go there if they felt that way, so the overrating is coming from a high level of the football world (or you and I are mistaken).
