I think he thought it could be over and cost Mizzou their timeouts. Debatable decision.

If you want to see a coach that is the very definition of competitive, take a look at the short video of Steve Sarkisian below. Winning clearly meant something to him, something very deep. Almost like he was exorcising some football demons. ** I believe it meant something special to him yesterday because, at least in part, he knows he helped put his players, his quarterback in particular, in a position to succeed. And his quarterback and his offense answered the bell in a big way. As a coach, I’m not sure there’s a better feeling than that. It’s something Sark had struggled to get just right all season. Arch, the OL and some dropped passes along the way did not help matters. But when the clock hit double zero in Columbia, the outlook of the 2026 Texas football team felt like it had fundamentally changed. Why? The 34 points scored against Ole Miss at home was no longer a fluke. The offense felt like it had created an identity. It was no longer a punching bag of three-and-outs. Instead, it showed real signs that it could blossom into something truly efficient and at the same time forceful, a unit that can both score points and move the chains. The emergence and usage of Jermaine Bishop helped. So too did the increased checkdowns to the running backs and tight ends and the steady play of Ryan Wingo and Emmett Mosley V. The offensive line, in this style of play, felt like it could hold up better. And the emergence of Raleek Brown as a true RB1 rather than a rotation also seemed to provide pop and consistency. There’s a reason Sark pumped his fists in the air after the win yesterday. The Longhorns may have found a real path forward and to the College Football Playoff. ** It’s a night-time kick in Baton Rouge. 6:30 on ABC. The college football world will be watching the Longhorns and Tigers. This will be a true test of the Texas offense and the Texas defense. Enjoy your Sunday, folks. The Horns have a big one on Saturday. Hook’Em! View full news story

Thanks. Very kind words.

I think we’re all lucky to work with one another. Just a good group of guys and one gal IMO.

Thank you. I appreciate those words and hope we live them every day.

No.

Kade Phillips, Graceson Littleton and Ryan Wingo will play today. Colin Simmons is in full pads and looks like he's going to try to give it a go. Cam Coleman did not participate in pre-game drills.

Working for me.

Snatching defeat from the jaws of victory...

Simmons is actually surprisingly good against the run because he gets off blocks very well. Spence is not as good at DE stopping the run because he has shorter arms and doesn’t get off blocks as well. Now Vasek, Lance and Zina, that’s in their wheelhouse.

Hank’s part of the Daily Texan mafia. ;-) We’re building something similar at OTF. I can feel it.

I think he’s not 100pct so it wouldn’t change much for me.

Yesterday morning, I went with the over-under of three of the Texas injured players being able to play today. Well, three players were moved up from questionable to probable. Ryan Wingo Graceson Littleton Kade Phillips That means Colin Simmons and Cam Coleman remain questionable and are possible game-time decisions. ** I think it’s interesting how we got to yesterday’s injury report. As of yesterday morning, I was told Coleman and Simmons were actually unlikely to play and that one of the DBs was 50-50 at best. It was somewhat disappointing news overall because early in the week, Texas was hopeful Simmons could play. ** Now let’s talk about the game itself. Missouri has an offensive identity. Texas doesn’t, at least not a consistent one. Missouri has a solid defense. Texas has an elite one. Special teams feels like a draw, though Texas has had the steadier placekicker thus far. Both coaches are solid in game and time management IMO. Texas may have an advantage when it comes to depth of talent. But Missouri is plenty talented to win this game. Both teams are 6-2. And the game is in Missouri. On paper, this is a toss-up. In Vegas, it’s the same (Texas favored by just 2.5 points). The team that wins today will likely get on top early in the contest and then lean into their strengths. For Missouri, that’s its run game. For Texas, it’s the defense. First one to 17 points wins this game. I think the ball just might bounce the way of the Longhorns because the Horns’ defense are starting to create turnovers. Hook’Em! View full news story

I don’t think we’ve applied to be in the App Store. But Rick could answer that question better.

All feedback is welcome and it sounds like you have some real-world experience.

It’s new. We announced that we were going to move to the new redesign earlier this week, and then we made the move yesterday. Hope you like it! And let us know if you need directions to find anything you need (except touchdowns, Texas has to score those on their own).

Make sure you link your articles to the board over here!

This photo is from Dave Aranda’s house and was sent to us by an OTF OG. Notice the mini yard flag in the flower bed. He has not announced an agreement with LSU yet. But a picture is worth a thousand words.

Want to give a huge shout out to three interns for working on the design: Payton Sherman, Kumar Kharod and Justin Teall. And, of course, thanks to Rick Vasquez for implementing the final product. Please keep any questions/concerns coming our way. Thanks, Bobby

Sad. Young kids, too. Wishing his family all the strength in the world at this moment.

We are not. But we are for LSU.

It's fair to critique players. It's not to make fun of or mock them IMO. Unfortunately that's what that turns in to too often.
