Let’s be honest, no one was calling this a “rebuilding year” before the season started. Texas came into the year ranked #1 by multiple outlets, hyped across the media, and even the mods here were predicting 11 wins and a playoff berth. The narrative has changed only because the results haven’t matched the expectations. We returned a ton of talent, had continuity at key positions, and added through the portal. In today’s era, especially with Texas resources, no team can realistically call itself “young” or “rebuilding.” As Gerry says, that excuse doesn’t hold up anymore. This isn’t about rebuilding, it’s about underperforming. The pieces are there. Now it’s on the staff and leaders to recalibrate, get tougher in the trenches, and clean up execution. Improvement can and should come, but let’s not rewrite history just to soften the reality.

Kevin?

Gotta case. Gonna watch some Clint and John Wayne. Build an old west saloon the rest of this fall and winter. Check back again next October.

I cringed reading that but you are not wrong lol.
-
With NIL and portal no excuse to not get OL and decent rb instead of our JAGS at those positions. Could name other positions but those 2 hurt us bad. Dallas Wilson is better than all our receivers right now. But hopefully lesson learned for next year. Evaluate better to start with. 8-4 is the ceiling and the floor well...😭

Kinda Dabo’d it up this year.

Even a broken clock is right twice a day, skippy.
-
Oh here comes the excuses LOL. So did Ohio State and how are they doing? So did a great many other teams, that is just an excuse.
-
Button called Texas rounding into CFB playoff shape and going on a run by year’s end. That’s not happening. We just played a bad SEC team with actual SEC bodies all per the field and were handled convincingly.

UT is in Trouble. Outplayed & out coached.ed

I wonder when he and Eltife have a chat about his staff, as well as his duties -
We looked like we had a lot of players gone to NFL and lost 4 OLineman
-
Yes, but at this point I don’t think we only lose 2 games. If this o-line doesn’t get any better, we are losing 4 games. We might lose more if the defense is this bad again. To be honest, THAT was the most shocking part of this loss for me. I expected us to struggle against that Florida D—not in a million years would I have expected us to look so terrible stopping the run and explosive pass plays. Finally, WHERE IS THE PASS RUSH???? Most of us thought this team would be the most explosive pass rush defense at Texas this century. They have been completely absent.

Sark sucks. He is a recruiter and manager. Offensive guru is such BS. i miss Quinn Ewers and knew we would.
-
I saw a little of both good and bad. The OLine really concerns me.
-
We have such an experience OLine, we underestimated how that would impact the team in this new age.
-
Yeah, Livingstone made a great catch and took a shot on the knee. Don't understand the run game approach. There wasn't one. Defensively, DL and LBs got whipped. When you make Napier look good, you have real problems. Something's gotta be going on behind the scenes.
-
I think @Bobby Burton 's streak of calling games correctly is about to come to a screeching halt in Dallas.

Let’s hope Bobby is correct with his 10-2 season prediction.
-
If memory serves me correctly, didn't he get hurt trying to catch a pretty bad ball from Manning? But yeah, just overall this team was horrible. Shouldn't be surprising, even defensively they didn't look that great against the 3 cup cake teams. They just had enough to overpower/out talent them.
-
Did i win?
-
I took away some good things today.

Only thing we had on offense was a little Arch and Livingstone. White chocolate got hurt. Defense was a no show. Worst defensive performance since the Washington Sugar Bowl.
-
Defense made Lagway look good when he couldn't complete a pass previously. Couldn't run. It was like we didn't even want to try to run the ball.
