This is who Steve Sarkisian is.

I hope Sark wakes up this morning knowing that as a coach he got this team so close but in the end when a team is playing for championships against equal talent it is the coach that makes the difference. The Bert pattern of missing field goals had been apparent all year and it cost the team an SEC championship game. Sark should have seen this coming and it should have been corrected it before that game.

Sark started the season knowing that red zone offense was his biggest weakness since they finished ranked 89th as per surly poster in the prior year and finished ranked 111th this season. He knew what players he had, he knew their strengths and their weaknesses and yet he could not design a few play calls that would work even when the defense knew what was coming.

To me I think Sark thought he had the element of surprise on the pitch out. Championship teams and championship coaches are never surprised Sark needs to start by assuming they always know what is coming and you are still going to be better because you have your players better prepared. In practice fucking tell your #1s what is coming and defend it like they would and and execute it until they can't stop it no matter how many times they try. If you can't get it to be successful then draw up the next play until you have the one that will work.

This seems relevant given some of the recent rumors:

 

 

 

So where does Manning transfer? 
 

Georgia?

Alabama?

Ole Miss?

Knowing us, we’ll probably go hire the flavor of the year again and go right back to irrelevance after almost making it back to the mountaintop.

He transfers to Ohio State.  Then Taaffe comes back and scoops and scores the game winner in the semifinals next year

We’ll probably be in the Cheez It bowl next year after being preseason top 3, is that much better?

I’d take either the Cheez It or Pop Tart bowls. They’re delicious

Sark would have to be seriously drunk to go work for Jerry Jones. 

That would be absolutely crazy.  Do people think that Coach Sark is going to leave?  I'm sure that aggy and sooner would be delighted as well as those in the UT hating press. Then again, Mack is back in town :D

If he does leave, hire Lane Kiffin immediately. 

Done and done.

Tired bit is tired. I agree. 

We are obviously in great hands with Sark, despite some of his nitpicky shortcomings. Dude has us in a position as a program we couldn't have dreamed of just a few years ago.

I actually think his offense will improve next year, Arch will win the Heisman, and Texas will go 16-0 as National Champions and SEC Champions.

We'll start off with a revenge road beatdown of preseason #1 tOSU, and go nearly wire-to-wire as #1 after that W.

Thank God Sark can’t keep starting Quinn. He’s going to look like an offensive genius again next season. 
 

He’s was unstoppable at Alabama with fucking Mac Jones dishing the ball. 
 

Average competent QB play and we are on to ND, and only have the 1 loss to Georgia. 
 

Our defense was probably one of the greatest wastes of talent we’ve ever had not winning the title this year.

If we can get to the point where we have the type of talent differential on the Oline that bama had we will be. 
 

Although I can’t help but wonder if there weren’t a few times where he was ready to go with some boneheaded call and Saban said fuck that we’re running off tackle

Yeah. I don't know that Sark needs a true OC. But he does need a double check man to tell him no when he goes too crazy. I don't necessarily hate the toss play. But I hate it on 2nd down. I think if you run that on 3 or 4th down, I get it. Running it on second down just means you're risking the option of just powering ahead for the yard on later downs. I'd have liked to try and power it in at least twice before giving up.

2nd down should have been some type of play fake pass. Throw it away if nothing is there. At least, you could maybe catch the defense off guard. They dared us to run up the middle and were selling out for that. But once the toss happened and put us 9 yards away, now it completely changes everything. They know we have to pass and use the back of the endzone as another defender. That type of toss play was the worst call, especially when it looked choreographed. Defense knew it was coming and played downhill accordingly. It's now 9 trying to block 11, with an already suspect OL. Recipe for disaster.

Yep. Plus one of their DBs said they were sitting on that play. Said they had seen it on film from us (or sark teams) several times in that situation. We should be self scouting those tendencies. As mentioned by several posters a naked boot from that formation would have been a cake walk if they were expecting the toss

Klatt, I think, pointed out the OSU ran the EXACT same play, with similar success earlier in the game. Prior just like Texas they ran up the middle.

So not only was the OSU D ready, Sark did exactly the same thing as OSU earlier in the game. Only OSU's efforts didn't result in 6... for Texas. Offensive genius and great game day calls.

If I recall Ohio State ran it from under center and not pistol. Will need to go back and check. Also need to check blockers vs defenders on that play.
