I'd prefer to hear this after a big win, but he's not exactly wrong.
After a crushing defeat to OU, everyone was patting themselves on the back and the fanbase-wide sentiment was "well, we'll see them again in December!" Pretty sure Sarkisian said something to that effect as well.
Texas would go on to lose the next 5 games in a row. The majority of which they had a lead in the 4th quarter and/or OT.
This has been the program's problem. If they prepare and play like they did against Alabama for the remainder of the games, they can meet some of their lofty goals. If they congratulate themselves for "proving the country wrong by giving Alabama a close game" then a slew of losses is going to grace them before the season ends, just like 2016, 2017, 2019 and 2021 (to name a few)
