Steve Sarkisian Says Arch Manning Is Receiving Criticism for 1 Big Reason

The Texas football team's recent loss to Oklahoma has sparked a flurry of questions from fans and analysts alike. One reader asked about the roughing-the-passer penalty that negated an interception, questioning whether it was the quarterback or a runner who threw the pass. The answer is clear: only the quarterback can be penalized for roughing the passer.

Another reader expressed frustration with coach Steve Sarkisian's lack of offensive improvements and the regression of Arch Manning, the star quarterback. The reader suggested several fixes, such as increasing screen passes, slants, and curls, as well as addressing the offensive line's issues. However, Sarkisian has shown no interest in hiring an offensive coordinator or making significant changes.

The reader also questioned the possibility of Arch transferring for his senior season, but acknowledged it would be unlikely. The overall sentiment is that Texas football is in a dire state, with a terrible offense and a coach who refuses to make necessary changes. The article concludes with a hopeful note that Arch Manning could improve at the next level, but the current season may end with a disappointing 9-3 record at best.
