Miami’s Mario Cristobal Fires Shot at Steve Sarkisian, Texas Amid College Football Playoff Push
While many walked away impressed by Miami’s strong finish to the year, Texas Longhorns (9-3) head coach Steve Sarkisian expressed on the SEC Network that Miami went for style points late in the game to boost its chances of making the playoffs.
“There’s teams that are ranked in front of us that haven’t played any top-10 ranked teams,” Sarkisian said. “My point to everybody is, is this about what your record is at the end? Or is this about beating quality teams and showing how good of a team you really are by beating quality teams on the field. Or is it don’t play good teams, put up a bunch of yards, put up a bunch of points and make it look good. Throw fade route touchdowns with 38 seconds to go when you’re ahead 31-7 so that the score looks better.”
