What did Sark just say to Saban?

Saban was yelling at players about doing the Horns down.

That's why he's the GOAT.

Stop looking for someone to blame.

Our team played their hearts out.

We had a backup QB most of the game.

Shit happens. I’m proud of them.

[Hank Chinaski 6,312]

Yup, we lost by one despite playing with one arm tied behind our back for 75% of the game.

Sadly we’ll probably be playing with an arm tied behind our back for the rest of the season.

Props to the team and coaches. Great plan, great execution, other than Card, but he was banged up too.

That and I wish there wasn't a hold on the corner to keep the door open for the run 

[Deej 76,750]

Make our day better, App State. 

[Vic Mackey 47,006]

This one got away from us. This does not define us. Proud of the D and the team effort over all. Congrats to Bryce.

Why are we congratulating him? Fuck him. That dork always gets exposed against good defenses. On that big run on the final drive, we were being held blatantly on the edge that allowed a free path. He can go back to his inbred hillbilly state tonight

The refs robbed us of 2 pts, this should have been a 1 pt win

Except they probably punch it in the last drive.  It came down to they had the better QB because ours got hurt.  Thems the breaks.

Dude honesty just shut the fuck up and go away. It’s fucking pathetic how much you post on a rival message board Jesus Christ. 

Definitely not going anywhere.  Plenty of friends and some family here.  But I won’t be some bitch rubbing shit in.  Sorry for the loss.  Not being smug saying that…

[Saint Tacky 1,614]

Is the transfer portal closed? Has the trade deadline passed?

[MH BEVO 1,265]

We exchanged the safety for a field goal. The miss is what cost us. 

[Overlord 366]

They had to take out our QB with the dirtiest move in all sports. Fuck Nick Saban and his dirty motherfucking players. 
 

I’m so proud of this team right now. We fought hard. The future is bright. 

[Loop 1604 227]

Saban was yelling at his defense for doing horns down after the last play.

[bamachine 1,230]

Thanks for the heart stress. Your defense came to play.

[Horn80 6,114]

Losing to the #1 team by 1 point on last second FG with backup QB playing on one leg isn’t anything to be ashamed of.  Texas played a great game.

[Tex Long 4,382]

We have two goals: win the XII, and beat Bama in the CFP. We took the first step, but - just my opinion - we took the first step today.

Tell me I'm not the only one who thinks so.

[Surly Bevo 24,908]

Saw good things. But this fucking sucks. There are no moral victories

[Pato del Muerto 52,484]

We all knew the fg unit would cost us a game, but nobody thought it would be this game. 
 

that’s in jest, but we could have used the 3 points at the end of the half and also used the 2 points for the safety.

no that wasn't a safety.

they robbed us with no calls on crucial non PI and facemasks. they cost us more than 2 points.

Card played pretty well.

But he's not healthy, and prolly our qb for the next few games.  Texas just needs to survive and eek out wins.  They could still have a good to great season.

Lol, we were playing with a middling backup quarterback that had a bad ankle. 

[Loop 1604 227]

We are going to be just fine in the SEC world.

[GabrielsHorn 2,183]

Too’Too standing over a player and doing horns down after the game is such a trash move. Alabama players are talking way too much shit after having to injure the starting QB to beat an un ranked team.

2 words. Gary Patterson. Big props 

He might be a fat, sweaty fuck but he’s our fat, sweaty fuck now! Props to GP!

Damn. You guys are different this year.

Damn.

Yeah, it’s been a while since Texas was even remotely intimidating. They played their asses off today.

[ousux 5,595]

Missed FG at end of half has little bearing when there’s 30 mins to play. Bama is playing for TD’s those last three drives and who knows if they get them or not.

If Ewers stays healthy, there’s no way we lose that game. Period. Just like 2010.

I know people are gonna treat this the same as the "what if Colt" thing, but deep down everyone knows it's true. Saban isnt a football god when Texas has an elite QB

I refuse to count this as a loss. That non-call on pass interference in the end zone cost Texas 4 points and then there was the other. Bama did not win that game.

Yep. I saw that. He knows why they won this game. He’ll see video footage of what they did. 

[markstanco 12,570]

So pissed at so many things. The D rocked. I hate blaming refs but got damn that safety was a safety. The pass didn’t get to the LOS. Snap hook chip shot for 3. The PI in the 1st.

Sark doesn’t need to show these kids these plays where we got screwed. They know. They also need to know that shit won’t change for the next 2 years so get used to it

Our only way to win was to convert the 3rd and 2 with 1:45 left and kick a field goal with no time left. Instead Bijan fell down and Card missed Sanders wide open. 

If Watts makes that sack, we win. It would’ve been 4th and a mile. 

[Colonel Mustard 325]

Team played with a lot of guts. Mad respect. I hope we get that effort all year. 

Played with a backup QB for 3 full quarters and still could have won against the best team in the game.

Hurts, but there was nothing for us to lose, great game and should have been a great time for the recruits at the game. 

[Bevoette 1,268]

The officiating sucked ass! And had they called that face mask just before our first go ahead field goal that probably would have resulted in a touchdown and then they missed another face mask! Who the fuck were these guys? But starting quarterback taken out second string quarterback hobbled I'm damn proud of this team Patterson was a good choice for the team

[BurntOrange&White 39,930]

This game can be nothing but positives towards building to the future with recruiting.

Have I mentioned that I fucking detest moral victories
