  1. Reasons people use to justify dog shit coaches: We’re young! injuries Need time to get his players Blinding optimistic reasons to suddenly think things will change: the Bye week came at the perfect time Practice this week was really intense We finally got rid of the bad apple players! You checked a few on the bingo cards with one sentence.
  2. What’s going on is everyone knows that we probably hired the wrong coach now. Factor in that we won’t make a change until after the 2023 or 2024 season and that means you have to your remove your emotional investment in football to preserve your sanity.
  3. If we go 5-7 or 6-6 and lose key recruits I could certainly see him being forced to make major staff changes and be coaching for his job next year. Hopefully that is not how this season plays out.
  4. I’m sure anything is possible and there certainly is a chance that Sark breaks trend and adjusts his offense in the second half to counter defensive adjustments. It’s possible that PK stops mass subbing his entire defense three snaps into the first quarter and calls third and fourth down defenses that are remotely correlated to the team and situation. As a Texas fan, I will be watching/drinking/praying/hoping beyond hope that we suddenly figure this out. But as a person betting? Texas being favored on the road against a team that is decently talented and well coached feels likes free money. As a forecaster and not a Texas fan, you have to almost laugh at the market saying Texas is going to win this game absent any relevant data to support that conclusion.
  5. Well I would fucking hope we win at some point in the next 100 years. You seem to have more contempt over the frustration of fans than the actual incompetency of the coaches themselves. We should absolutely beat a team will Will Howard at QB. Just like we should have beaten Oklahoma State. Or Texas Tech who’s QB in that game was so amazing he was benched shortly after playing us. But the combination of Sark’s second half game plans and PK’s complete and total incompetence as a coach prevent that from happening. So there is no reason to expect a different result Saturday.
  6. Is it really a syndrome if you get battered every single time? When was the last time we won a road game?
  7. Is this a mistake? I don’t see any way Texas wins this game.
  8. Jimbo does not appear to be 100% truthful in his response there.
  9. Totally agree. It wasn’t a late hit so the roughing was predicated on it being a forceable hit to the head. How can it be one and not the other? I honestly cannot say I even know what the rule is, the intent of the rule or how it is applied anymore.
  10. On a separate note, that shot that Weigman took- the Ole Miss player stuck the crown of his helmet right into his chin strap. If that is not targeting, I have no fucking idea what the rule is anymore.
  11. Cognitive dissonance brought on by pure fan delusion is going to be really painful for some.
  12. I hope Surly posters have prepared themselves mentally for 5-5. I’ve reached acceptance with Sark and that is going to make the next two weeks much easier.
  13. We are losing in Manhattan. Anyone predicting Sark will suddenly figure this out by next week in the road is just wish casting.
  14. Dekkers is pure trash.
  15. They have one receiving threat. Even that was too much for our secondary.
  16. The next time you consider thinking our defense has improved or that PK shouldn’t be fired immediately just remember we made Dekkers look like an all conference QB.
  17. Criminal incompetence by the coaching staff to use Ovie as a spy on Sanders.
  18. I predicted PK would be fired at some point during the season and I think that is still a distinct possibility once a hobbled Adrian Martinez brutalizes our secondary and TCU’s receivers capture soul of our team like that guy in Mortal Kombat.
  19. Burton with the moral victory argument this morning. We just fought harder than last year this team is improved!
  20. Sark wasn’t out there signing the eyes himself. He’s the primary source of the loser culture.
  21. Do we keep this thing together at 6-6? Is our NIL account strong enough to keep all of these guys if what we all know what’s about to happen, happens?
  22. 8-4? That’s cute.
  23. Yesterday what they brought out on offense and defense was pure garbage. Sanders couldn’t hit a large percentage of the throws he could normally make, their receiving core was mostly a collection of freshman and backups due to injury, and they had absolutely no running game. That was a paper Tiger 6-1 team that West Virginia beats.
  24. It’s clear to me the only way we will win a game is if it’s a) at home and b) against a much more inferior opponent. I’m already seeing 5-5. Honestly, this is looking to me more like 6-6 than it is 7-5. That Ok State offense and defense yesterday was pure trash. Sanders could barely throw and they had no run game to speak of and still beat us. I’m officially in the camp that Sark is gone after three seasons.
  25. But he can decide who passes and who catches. He literally just saw his starting pitcher walk 17 straight batters including 6 wild pitches and said, fuck it let me bring him back out for the bottom of the ninth.
