@Jeff Howe how Trevor Goosby looking ask Sark that question?

"We're going to have to be ready to adjust to, maybe, some of the new things," Sark said, regarding the game plan against Ohio State.

Sark said the defense needs to be alert to Julian Sayin's ability as a runner.

On the difference in the teams between now and then, Sark said both teams lost some great players to the NFL.

On how to handle the outcome of the Ohio State game regarding getting ready for this season, Sark said it's a different team with different leaders. "At the end of the day, that stung," Sark said. "But this is a new mission, a new challenge that we're on."

Sark on red zone success: Texas was Just over 50% of touchdowns in the red area in 2023, rose to 64% in 2024. But Sarkisian says there remains a focus to improve and get better.

Sark wants to remain consistent with who he is when delivering his messaging. Regarding preparing Arch for Saturday, Sark said he doesn't expect to deviate from the plan.

Sarkisian on advice to Arch Manning: "Go be you."

"We've been in some tough venues," Sark said, pointing out that Texas has played road games against Texas A&M, Michigan and Alabama.

Sark several times has said Texas needs to be "enamored with what we do."

Sarkisian on road success: "We really trust our process." Texas practices with heavy crowd noise during practice at DKR and there is an emphasis on toning out the outside noise as well when it comes to media hype or social media.

Attention to detail and being enamored with themselves are among the things Sark will emphasize this week.

This weekend will be heavily focused on details per Sark. Details and style of play that is unique to Texas will be the focus in practice

"You try to minimize the self-inflicted wounds so that you can play as clean as you can." — Sark, with maybe the key quote on what it'll take for Texas to win this game

"You'd like to get some footing underneath you," Sark said, referring to whether he'd like this to be his team's first game of the season.

On the "epic games that Texas and Ohio State have been a part of," Sark notes that it was 20 years ago when Vince Young and the Longhorns went into the Horseshoe and beat the Buckeyes.

Sark, again, mentioned that Texas will be the most traveled team in the SEC this year.

"Naturally, it's a tall task," Sark said. "We've got a tough road slate this year, and this is the first one of a few to come."

Texas has nine starters and 30 players back from the CFP semifinal loss to the Buckeyes.

According to Sark, 32 players who played in the Cotton Bowl are now in the NFL.

"Beyond the rankings, these are two really good teams," Sark said of the game against Ohio State.

A "pretty epic matchup," Sark said, "is great for our sport."

Sark is here.

Hartline wanted McCutcheon & Lockett bad. Hopefully those missed don’t bite Ohio State on 08/30

I believe Goodbye will play barring a set back, Chatman is available and can play, hes just not at 100%. Chatmans hindrance has been close to the vest so I'm not sure what he is nursing. I'm waiting to hear If Mosley is ramping up this week, seems he had a lower body nagging injury. If Mosley can't go, I'd expect some more Daylon McCutcheon snaps. Kaliq Lockett may be a factor closer to the red area at WR if they have to spell Moore, Wingo or Livingstone.
