hey looks is mr all gas no brakes.   he can also get shitstomped by an Ark team that lost to Ga. 37-0.

every coach comes in with suboptimal players.  its usually why the previous coach got fired.  the OL and LB's are bad.  the other positions are average.

everyone in this program is in show me.  sark just happens to be the HC.

Even is AL wins this week, GA more than likely will be ranked #1.  They are salty a d the Arkansas QB that tore us up is all beat to shit.

Yeah they called a shitty game, but they called shitty calls both ways at least.

TCU turned over and gave up tons of yards on the ground. They should be grateful it was close, they didn't get screwed or anything on the whole.

the only call I remember them getting was the DPI on them

11-1 Texas makes the Playoff. OU is definitely better positioned though.

You might want to check the Arky-UGA box score before thinking about the playoff.

Not that its going to matter, but I’m not sure that’s a slam dunk this year. If Alabama and Georgia meet undefeated in the SEC championship game, they are absolutely both getting in. Oregon is in if they win out or go 11-1. And 11-1 OSU with a loss to Oregon probably gets in over 11-1 Texas with a loss to Arkansas.

That's fair, but someone always picks up a surprise loss. Every single year.

If we give it to anyone other than Bijan and we don't get it in, Sark gets absolutely crucified. Shades of Sark's former boss not handing it to Marshawn on the goal line with the Super Bowl on the line.

I was a bit bummed to see us not get creative, but if they could stop Bijan from picking up a yard twice then they deserved to get a stop. Unfortunately, they deserved to get the stop.

I've seen enough of RoJo at the goal line that I wouldn't bitch about that at all.  now Keilan that would be an issue.

I haven't read through all 98 pages so I'm sure it's been mentioned 69 times in this thread, but this is absolutely a game we lose under Strong or Herman.

I think we use Bijan that way next week, and then bring him back to 20 touches per game for the back half of the schedule. It is all hands on deck next week.

Actually, if Sark is smart, he'll unleash the other two on outside runs. Maybe he was holding back purposefully, saving some good stuff for OU. Stuff that worked great against Tech and Rice.There is absolutely zero reason to not give Keilan more touches.

Running behind the left side of the line vs the right was as big a mistake as giving it to a tired Bijan on that 4th down.  

Yeah Jones wasn't the same after he got rolled up on.  I knew when they went left it was 50/50

how many holding calls did we have with Bijan's 120 jump cuts? I guarantee you we got away with 50

He did come out a lot for 15 carries 

5* RB in his prime. Nothing says franchise NFL RB like don't give me more than 15 touches.

When I first played football, there were a lot of games we almost forfeited waiting for the 11th guy to show up to field a team. Played both sides of the ball every play for 4 quarters for all but a few games that season.

If Sark was saving anything when we damn near got beat he should be fired, this is just as stupid as someone posting Gary was saving something last week while losing to SMU.

Coming into the game I didn’t care how or how much we won by today. This may be the last time we ever play frog (hopefully) and beating them on their own field after the last 8 years or so, to leave that fat fuck with a permanent taste of Longhorn dick in his mouth seems appropriate.

i like the cut of your jib

I agree that it would've been nice to rest Bijan some before OU. Hopefully he's able to get fresh this week.

That said, Roschon seemed to be struggling a bit with their run defense (he tends to wait for blocks to open up and tcu was on him quickly today) and Keilan has coughed up the ball a couple of times.

In those circumstances, and with Casey's trend of hitting TCU defenders in the hands today, riding Bijan was the right choice to win this game.

Prob is the south will rise again refs will probably get us in the SEC SEC SEC nation too.

Their defense didn't suck too bad this game.

They fit their mo.  Good pass d.  Bad against the run.  Stout inside the 10.

 

As a great coach once said "Ol ugly is better than ol nothing."

It’s a time honored tradition that Texas hides half the offense until OU week.

Cincy leading 17-0 at halftime in South Bend.  They win there isn't really a lot left to test them from toppling the system.

so Bama, Georgia, Cincy and who? Oregon?

Damn near got beat?  The game wasn't seriously in doubt since midway through the 3rd quarter.

 

Short of us self distructing, the game was well in hand.

 

I support going for it in 3rd and 4th and goal.

Thank God TCUs D can’t stop the run for shit this year. But credit to Sark for exploiting that. 

they can't stop the run and it still took Bijan going all Barry/Earl to get yards.

This same crew did a pretty decent job earlier this year.  Seems like the B12 gave them their orders and they carried them out.

Just SMU and they get us at home and they should win. UCF is down. Navy is down. They avoid UH. Everyone else is garbo. Tulane and/or Tulsa could maybe give them a chippy scare but they will be double digit favorites in every game - probably including SMU. 

They may have to beat SMU twice - though.

That's a fact. Herman loses this game by 15.

thermensa goes for it instead of taking the points.  we don't get it.

he doubles down to make up for it.  we still don't get it.

we lose by 1 instead of winning by 5.
