After the No. 3 Texas Longhorns secured a hard-fought 17-7 victory over No. 20 Texas A&M on Saturday night, head coach Steve Sarkisian took immediate action to ensure the celebration did not spiral into disrespect. With emotions running high at Kyle Field, Sarkisian stopped his players from celebrating on the Aggies’ midfield logo, emphasizing the importance of sportsmanship. Sarkisian’s caution stemmed from an earlier incident he witnessed in college football that same day. While preparing for the primetime matchup in his hotel room, Sarkisian watched the fallout of Michigan’s upset victory over Ohio State. The Wolverines attempted to plant their flag on the Buckeyes’ logo at midfield, sparking a chaotic melee. The incident led to police intervention, the use of pepper spray, and an officer requiring hospital treatment for injuries sustained during the chaos.

It’s about what we do. And I think there’s a way to win with class, and I’m hopeful that we can continue to learn how to do that.” wideopensocks.comMade to Fit Wide - Wide Open Socks - Best Socks For Wide Feet Ad The victory marked a significant moment for Texas, solidifying their position as one of the top teams in the country and keeping their College Football Playoff hopes alive. Still, Sarkisian remained committed to teaching his players to win with dignity. He also expressed hope that the respect shown to Texas A&M would be reciprocated in future matchups. “And I’d like to, whenever that day comes, get the same respect in return,” he said. Sarkisian’s quick action and message to his team after the game set a tone of sportsmanship and maturity, ensuring that the rivalry remained competitive on the field while fostering mutual respect between the two programs.
