Like Sark, Elliott is stuck in his ways and is willing to go down with the ship as long as they win or lose that way.

When the first TD pass happened, that's when Sark got pass happy.

100% agree. If Lacey is the starting QB next season and looks similar in play to Ewers and Manning, fans will be calling for Bell, when the real problem is the entire offensive operation and not the players.

His performance, along with the defense's performance was eerie similar to their defensive performance against Ohio State last season in Columbus. The box score will say that it was a fantastic day from them, but the offside penalties, roughing the passer penalties, and pass interference calls were rough, and there were not enough havoc plays outside of the first few drives in this game from that unit. Obviously, the defense wasn't the main reason Texas lost, but against better offensive football teams, those havoc plays have to come to give this Jekyll and Hyde offense shorter fields to work with.

Don’t let them beat you twice…

He was in this exact same scenario in 2023 Red River and instead of going for the first down and having Bert Auburn kick a walk off field goal, he kicks the field goal and leaves a minute plus for Dillion Gabriel to march down the field and score the game winning touchdown. Can’t believe he made that same mistake again three years later.

It’s definitely the system, not the players. People can say, “players must execute,” but if they’ve been saying this for six seasons, maybe it’s not all on the players.

There’s six seasons of evidence to prove that it’s not the players. It’s the system the players are placed in.

1 in 56. This is the norm.

When Colin Simmons strip sacked John Mateer and wasn’t able to secure that fumble, I got 2025 Florida game vibes immediately. The defense, as good as they have been, still has trouble getting takeaways. That was the play that upset me the most in this game, even though there were worse moments than that from this team as the game progressed.

Georgia beat Oklahoma twice.

I doubt Sark is leaving for the NFL after this season. I also doubt Muschamp wants to be the next HC at Texas, but if he ends up with that job, he will need to fully embrace being a CEO HC instead of being both the HC and defensive play caller. I think he would be good at calling the defense while also being the HC, like Venables is, but it would take too much time away from him fulfilling his HC duties imo. Saban and Smart are two of the best HCs this century, but once they became HCs, they gave up play calling. Muschamp would have to do the same and hire a "HC of the offense" if he wanted to succeed as a HC at Texas.

Man, the last part of this sentence hits different now. RIP Mike Ditka.
