What you are saying is that they haven't trained or recruited a great pass rusher in 3 years.  Fail.

That's exactly what I'm saying. I'm also saying Saban didn't have his O-line or QB sorted. Riley can't play defense. Day can barely complete a forward pass. Lanning didn't have his guys up to face Washington. 

 

 There is something wrong with all these guys. It comes down to how well you can overcome your shortcomings, and everyone has them. Last year Michigan showed the Big still couldn't handle a competent spread offense. We all wanna coach who has no warts. Unfortunately that's just not the case. We are 6-1 despite those shortcomings. Pretty much where most of us thought we would be if things went well this season.

Issues on offense and defense + kick the fuckin' ball thru end zone to start 3rd qtr.  Third down efficiency was horrible -- that's on SARK !!!

LOL you are the most worthless sunshine pump on this board. Go hand out participation ribbons to the team and get your kneepads out so you can toss Sark's salat.

But its kinda hilarious how we won the way we did. They're bitching about that third down spot. I love it.

What’s even funnier about that is they only had 1 enforced penalty called on them the entire game and it was only called because dude ripped our players helmet off.

This thread demonstrates for the umpteenth time that there are always three types of fans.

First are those that look at the current situation and are satisfied because the team is winning more than the recent past.

The third group sees it negatively no matter what is happening.

The second group looks for key signs of progress or regression to predict the future.

Too many people right now are in group one, blindly looking at 6-1 and saying all is well. All is not well. There are cracks in the foundation. 

Personally I think the best team we will have is two years away.

You haven't earned the right to do shit. You're a shitty fan little bitch-boy that doesn't buy-in to the team that you donate money to and supposedly support. You don't play. You don't coach. You don't recruit. You attend road games and spend money and think that that means that the football team should never lose a game.

You're part of the problem with Texas. You're entitled and think that money buys wins. It doesn't. Culture buys wins. Support buys wins. You're one of the quickest motherfuckers on this site to look for any reason to criticize this team and bitch about shit when it doesn't meet your expectations and that's extremely well documented. I tell you shit that you don't like hearing and as a result you neg all of my posts.

You're a shitty fan and you need to adjust your attitude. Do it or not - I don't give a fuck. We'll win without you with a coach that actually understands this shit.

Just maybe quit being such a negative fucking piece of shit. You're telling me you're a big fan yet you do nothing but bitch about Texas having a top 10 team that is still in the running to win everything for the first time in over a decade.

Holding on a lot of their big plays was ignored, refs were ass but of course due to that spot "refs wanted Texas". But when other fans are bitching about us winning on that i kinda like it.

The 1 penalty the entire game is something, but absent a better view that contradicts what we saw - damn that spot was inexcusable.

Sark didn't fail the go beat Bama's ass in Tuscaloosa test. He hasn't failed the win all of the other games on the schedule test yet. 

I mean God damn some of y'all get super fucking hot about a tight win against a bad team. Shit happens. I'll fucking bitch alongside the rest of you if we come out and do this same shit against BYU next week. But I don't think we're going to. I think BYU is going to get fucked up. 

Scary post.  

[LTtxfan 49173]

Brian Robison pissed.  Not a good win.

He's frustrated that "this team doesn't play to dominate their opponent"

"Worst performance in a game this season."  You have a standard that you set against bama, and you are not playing up to it !!!

I’ve explained our intuition says Dallas is the biggest game against ou because it always was. Simply having no divisions and a championship game changes that entirely. Add a 12 team playoff?

[DFW Horn 6123]

Great Q1 vs UH, absolute shit after that.

Run the damn ball with a lead, Sark! It worked after Ewers went down. This team doesn't beat BYU, K-State, or even ISU on the road with that effort overall.

[GTJ1982 380]

God Sark is talking like he is clueless during post game  press conference.  If he says one more time that the opposing team showed looks they didn’t show on film he needs a mental examination.  News flash Sark teams are going to run a 3-3-5 on defense and attack our safeties over the middle.  Maybe have foresight to realize actual coaches attack other teams weaknesses.  He should try it sometime instead mindlessly calling random plays.

Almost like we should hug how much people dislike us. Wait, that doesn’t sound right. Needs to be catchier. Something we can put on a t shirt. 

[Ben Ficus 148]

Robison is right, but even that group had a few stinky wins, too.  They played down to their opponents more than once in that golden era.  In 2004 VY had to pull a rocket out of his ass and then get a big assist from Tony Jeffrey to barely win against Kansas to keep that season alive. 

Yesterday was another ugly win with glaring concerns on both sides of the ball.  Depending on Ewers' status, I'm not sure if I'm more worried about the disappearing offense or the disappearing Watts-less secondary.  Anyway, on to face a team full of married 26 year olds.

On the bright side, the ball carriers looked pretty nice.  I loved seeing Baxter in limited touches.  He looked like he's feeling really good, more decisive and faster than in earlier games.  I assume he's healing from the lingering injury.  Texas will have to get the best out of him alongside Brooks. 

Red is maybe completely out of the doghouse, and you know what they say, you can take the dog out of the house, but you can't keep the dog out of the house.

What’s wild is he admitted to being on these boards bitchin about Greg Davis. That was our second best period as a program, we won 10-11 games at will and scored 50 points a game constantly hahahahaha. He found ways to bitch then. Sark will never win some of these people over, it is what it is my friend. 

[Stunns38 3460]

The problem I see is that good coaches like Saban evolve. Sark admittedly said he’s still learning on the job even after 15 fucking years. He belongs at a program like Illinois or Washington state with tempered expectations. I hope he gets better but he can’t get out of his own way and is stubborn to a fault. I really think he knows the problems but is too stubborn to try to correct. Not attacking the portal for 1-2 EDGES and more than an injury-plagued safety was borderline arrogance and incompetence.

He’s done well recruiting but had some luck plus NIL. However, he’s not capable of being a game managing HC and play calling OC. Not many are. Fortunately for him, much of the casual fan base and admin are happy so far and will accept his 9-10 win ceiling. I wish I were a casual fan and not let a shitty game like this ruin my damn weekend. I just hope Sark will take us over the top but there’s strong evidence that he’ll end up failing.

You aren’t intelligent, are you? That’s fine. We don’t have an IQ test to post on this board. We won a national championship in spite of Greg Davis, not because of him. 
 

I am bitching because we have glaring issues that will create more trouble down the road. When there are issues, they need to be addressed. Alabama hasn’t dominated the last decade plus of CFB because they were satisfied.
 

We can either improve or be satisfied playing exactly zero games that matter to America. Just like we have done almost every week since 2009.

SWC.

point is, the context and circumstances of what the OU game means has radically changed since pre-1995 until now. Originally it was a measuring stick for whether Texas was in the NC hunt. Back then undefeated was almost necessary to ensure winning the beauty contest. Otherwise a 1 loss team had to really do the beauty pageant thing to compare to other 1 loss teams in the bowl and AP voter system.

Big 12 roles around and it meant the south division and the inside track to the conference title. that was the golden era of Texas getting bent over in Dallas for sure.

Recently, no championship game at all, then it was added back and no divisions so for the first time, Texas and OU could actually play twice with the second game being more important. of course in those recent years, Texas wins in Dallas then loses the championship game, or Texas wins or loses in Dallas and  shits the bed the rest of the way and doesn't make the championship game.

Point is, there are at least 4 variations here and each causes Dallas to have a different meaning, none unimportant but some more important than others.

Haha pretty good start, I laughed. Let’s jump straight to the meat of this diatribe here bud, we aren’t Alabama and we won’t ever be Alabama. Their best two coaches have a combined 10 national championships between them shit for brains. Bryant won as many titles by himself as we have total. You keep setting your expectations on being more like the best to ever fucking do it and I’ll keep handing you tissues while you bawl on here like an angry baby. Texas doesn’t give a fuck about getting in the mud to win at all costs. It doesn’t matter what you expect. It’s why harbaugh can’t break through. His players beat women, they are expelled. Oklahoma, Georgia, bama have players that are vile pieces of shit…they get a redshirt and take some games off. You’re right in thinking we should be there though, I’ll admit to that. I enjoy being 6-1 for the first time since 2009, that’s all that matters. I do like how much you hate the aggies tho, we just don’t agree here haha.

I went and looked at Texas record in the swc while Oklahoma was there, I don’t think it ever happened haha. In 1920 Oklahoma left for the big 6 or big 8. They only spent 5 years in the SWC.
