Even the community college had the common sense to back down. What does that tell you about lsu as a school? Arrogance and desperation are a bad couple. I hope lsu wins in court tomorrow. Lane and lsu are just stupid enough to roster those players.

Ex NFL players practicing should be enough to trigger all of the penalties of which LSU has been advised previously would occur! 🤘🏻🤘🏼🤘🤘🏽🤘🏾🤘🏿

I think you could have scripted a couple of videos with the length of those articles!! 🤘🏻🤘🏼🤘🤘🏽🤘🏾🤘🏿

LSU admin with Lane leading

Is this a Lane Kiffin or LSU admin? Is Lane wishing he was still at Mississippi?

Great stuff Jeff! Controlling our controllables is what I’m looking for, penalties are just a gut punch!

Get the mayo bath ready man.

Which allows the CFP Championship Game to played earlier.

Is financing available?

You mean they are starting the season earlier in August?

Man Jeff on a heater today 🤘🤘 you know me I’ll be looking at penalties like a fly to sh*t lol 😂

Great to hear, these are the games we want 🤘🏽

AUSTIN, Texas — Hopefully, the season opener against Texas State is the sloppiest game No. 5 Texas plays in 2026. While Steve Sarkisian doesn’t question the effort, intent or physicality he'll see against the Bobcats, he’s not expecting the Longhorns to be a finished product. After watching a few of the games during college football’s limited Week 0 slate, Sarkisian knows his club won’t be perfect on Saturday (2:30 p.m., ESPN). “You see guys jumping offsides, you see formations, you see personal foul penalties after a catch that's a little bit of a different rule, you see 12 guys on the field — you see some of the stuff,” Sarkisian said on Monday. “To me, the situational masters piece of how important those special situations are in early Week 1, Week 2 type games, those are the things that we're really trying to focus in on to make sure that we don't have those lapses. Only 10 guys on punt return or 12 guys on defense. Hard count, we jump offsides. Those little things are the things that we're really trying to focus in on.” For a Texas squad that finished the 2025 season ranked 134th in the country in penalties per game (8.3), getting off to a clean start is hugely important, especially with No. 1 Ohio State coming to town for a game on Sept. 12 with major College Football Playoff implications at stake. The same can be said for Texas State, whose seven penalties for 61.4 yards per game last season ranked 104th and 106th in FBS, respectively. Other than limiting penalties, which would be a long overdue, welcome sight for the Longhorn faithful, here are a few other statistical categories to monitor when Texas squares off with the Bobcats. TURNOVERS The focus on takeaways throughout the offseason has centered around Will Muschamp’s defense forcing the issue and creating havoc. When it comes to the opener, however, the attention shifts away from the defense and to how well Arch Manning and the offense can protect the football, something the Longhorns did at an elite level last season. Only four FBS offenses committed more turnovers than the nine charged to Texas in 13 games, one of which was a special teams miscue in the Citrus Bowl. While the offense turned the ball over six times in two camp scrimmages, the Longhorns should find better fortune against Texas State. The Bobcats tied for 106th nationally with 12 takeaways last season. That’s one of the reasons why GJ Kinne hired Will Windham off Major Applewhite’s South Alabama staff to run Texas State’s defense, even though the Jaguars recorded five fewer takeaways in 2025 (15 in 12 games) than they did in Windham’s first season as defensive coordinator, tying for 43rd in FBS with 20 turnovers forced in 13 games. Turning the football over is a sure-fire way to let an inferior opponent hang around longer than they should. The better the Longhorns are at protecting the football, the quicker Sarkisian can get the starters out of the game. PLAY DIFFERENTIAL Paired together, third-down conversion percentage and time of possession paint a good picture of how well a team controlled a game. The play differential (the difference between the number of plays run on offense and the number of plays defended) between two teams does the same thing. And with the elements being what they’re expected to be on Saturday, total snaps are arguably more important than the aforementioned metrics. It’s also an area where Texas struggled last season. The Longhorns had a season-long play differential of minus-47 (minus-3.6 per game), which ranked 14th in the SEC; it got worse in conference play, with Texas’ minus-79 play differential (minus-9.9 per game) ranking last in the league. The defense forcing turnovers and/or getting off the field on third down are significant factors in how the play differential plays out. But the offense also has to sustain drives, which the Longhorns should be better equipped to do in 2026, thanks to a revamped running game and an offensive line (with help from Michael Masunas as an in-line blocker) better built to control the line of scrimmage. QUARTERBACK RUSHING YARDS Manning finishing the game with as close to zero rushing yards as possible would be a great outcome for the offense. It would mean he avoided getting sacked and, instead of using his legs to escape the pocket and keep the offense on schedule, Manning has more (and more viable) options to check the ball down to with Raleek Brown and Hollywood Smothers in the backfield. The fewer hits Manning has to absorb against the Bobcats, the better everyone will feel heading into the Ohio State game. Brad Jackson’s legs, on the other hand, can put stress on the Texas defense in multiple ways. According to Pro Football Focus, Jackson rushed for 391 yards on scrambles (No. 9 in FBS) and gained 478 yards on designed runs (No. 23 in FBS). The Bobcats’ signal-caller was one of only seven FBS quarterbacks to rack up at least 450 yards on designed runs and scramble for at least 350 yards (Jackson’s 58 rushing attempts on scrambles were the second-most in FBS, according to PFF). Whether it’s Justin Cryer, Derek Williams Jr. or another Longhorn defender, Kinne would be smart to look for the path of least resistance (i.e., limiting the number of times his offense challenges Rasheem Biles, Colin Simmons or another proven playmaker) when targeting Texas players to put in a run/pass conflict.

Maybe LSU and Texas Tech should form their own conference. They deserve each other.

Would I get to sit next to you? If so, is that a premium or a discount?

Arch missed a bunch of easy throws, Wingo & Co. were dropping balls, the LG position was manned by matadors, and we had no RBs. Defense couldn't get off the field consistently either. Tough all around, hence the big changes. We'll see if they have the desired effect.

Sark explained today that they all are having to move games around for next season because next year they are moving the start of the season up a week. Texas will still play Michigan next year.
