That matchup feels like Coach Klein vs Coach Red all over again….Sark needs his notebook back

@Jeff Howe, it just seems that the coaching staff at times is going through the motions.  I'm probably wrong - I hope I am - but the cohesiveness isn't there.  No fire in the belly.  This will always boil down to coaching, and I am not dwelling on the HC other than managing assistant coaches and coordinators in whatever way necessary to make Texas get over the hump. Something is broken, and quite frankly Sark needs to get his head out of the playbook and head coach.

This wasn't humbling, it was downright embarrassing. 

We got out coached, out played, out hustled, out everything.

Also someone made a comment on the post game live stream. Texas A&M, OU and Tech are all going to be in the playoffs and Texas is not. That stings more than it should.

Change in OL philosophy and blocking schemes? Flood has developed individual players but never an elite OL group. Flood inherited the great Bama OL from Brent Key the Georgia Tech HC

The problem isn't Flood or the OL. It's Sark's scheme, it's been said many times and none more so than Gerry. We could get rid of Flood and maybe that is the right move, who knows. The problem starts with Sark. 

His example of Elko building an identity in two years at A&M and Sark in year 5 still has no identity. They don't run the ball well, the passing game works...some of the time and your blocking is spotty. 

Until Sark figures that out, it won't matter who is coaching OL or even playing there. The buck stops and starts with him.

17 total rushing attempts ain’t gonna win the game. Tony Hills has been beat this drum loudly and rightfully so, run the damn ball. Lean on them all game. CJ Allen went down early.  Run right at his replacement. Target weaknesses/advantages. That’s all Georgia did, they threw away from Manny against soft coverages and made their 3rd downs manageable. Why weren’t we targeting the middle of the field where their LBs were vacating when blitzing? I feel like I’m taking crazy pills.

We were running the ball really well early, I was actually surprised and then we just went pass happy. I thought Sark needed to go more ground and pound while it was working. Was very weird to see, imo.
