That continued during Saturday's scrimmage, as he caught two touchdown passes, one from Arch Manning.Mosley might be one of the best No. 3 passing options in the SEC, something he showed flashes of as the WR2 last season.The DefenseIt's clear that Will Muschamp has the defense playing well during fall camp, something that will hopefully translate once the season begins.Sarkisian said that the defense created four takeaways, which was highlighted by the aforementioned pick-six from Okpala. "I thought defensively they really showed up ready to go today," Sarkisian said. "I would probably argue that the last two days, the offense got the better of the defense. I thought that the defense came ready to go today. I think they created four turnovers. I think they created plenty of third-and-longs. I think they rushed the passer. They were sticky in coverage. With that being said, there were things that they need to improve upon, too."The Not So GoodTexas Longhorns quarterback Arch Manning (16) speaks to the press during SEC Football Kickoff Media Day at the Tampa Marriott. | IMAGN IMAGES via Reuters ConnectThe Offense Was "Sloppy" As the play-caller, Sarkisian clearly has a high standard he wants the offense to reach.It doesn't appear that they reached that level on Saturday, at least in Sarkisian's eyes. "I thought offensively, it just was it was too sloppy for my liking," Sarkisian said. "I feel like we should be better, more efficient from an offensive perspective. Again, that's not to say that there weren't some good things." "Just too many errors occurring on the offensive side of the ball today, that is uncharacteristic for what we've put on tape in practice, and so we've got to get back to that mentality."Arch Manning's Efficiency Despite throwing two touchdowns during the scrimmage, Sarkisian said that Manning was "a little bit inefficient." "I felt like today, similar to last week at the start, a little bit inefficient I feel like he could be better," Sarkisian said.Some fans might see these comments and think the sky is falling, but Sarkisian clearly holds Manning to a high standard.Sign up to our free newsletter and follow us on Facebook, X and Instagram for the latest news.Add us as a preferred source on GoogleFollowPublished 9 minutes agoZACH DIMMITTZach Dimmitt is the Deputy Editor for Texas Longhorns On SI and Texas A&M Aggies On SI.
