This constant celebrating over one win over Alabama and losing in the semi final is a little over the top. will the horns ever be upset they dont win championships or disappointed about anything or just be pleased with being in the sec and be Aggie like after a couple years

Actually aggie with their 8 win average is a heck of a lot better than I ever expected. No reason to think texas can’t do something similar.

It'll be a while, it seems like they're about to make one of those Clemson, Georgia runs winning the odd years Saban didn't. Too much money, recruiting is lights out, development is as well. We'll have pressure but there's gonna be a lot of winning over here in Texas.

I'm just saying, I know it's all speculation but we have a roster comparable to the 2005 Vince Young season, hell we're favored at Arkansas by 29 points.

Wow, we've really made it. That's what you tell Alabama fans before the season.

Until this year, people would tell Texas fans that we'd go 6-6.

Yes - this year.

Veteran QB and O-line from a productive team means it is reasonable to be in the mix for a title in 2024.

Take all the shots you want at us, but don't treat us like we're aggie.

Yes. It is totally absurd that a fanbase celebrate the program’s best year in over a decade after the worst stretch in program history

Dude, they will be as good as Sark makes them. So far, so good. It's a different test for the shorthorns, but the test just got harder for everyone in the SEC also.

Frankly, it's a great time for a 12-team playoff, cause the SEC is gonna need the spots.

I say Texas fans have no clue about what is going to happen across many of their programs compared to Big 12 play (which isn't something to be very proud of specific to football in last 20 years).

But also SEC fans have no clue what is coming for that righteous, overly confident, weak fan base.

Key is, kicking their arses a few times and their fan base folds and stops showing up. Really sad if you ask me. Bunch of fair weather fans all over the place. I have been to half empty football stadiums and lately a baseball stadium where fans barely cheer and take off by the 6th inning...past 3 years in a row.

So only gonna take a few SEC football games and the Texas trolls will be nonexistent. Ever see much for baseball posts from them lately? Point proven.

Horns down is a thang in the SEC!!! Cannot wait.

Sark is unproven with only one good year but still lacks winning top matchups. Whole reason they believe they are world beaters and keep pointing to the Bama game. You guys wont live that down until next football season. A highly, highly overranked team, just like prior Aggie teams under Jimbo. Sark and Jimbo are gonna be hanging out eventually soon enough. Although I personally like Sark a hell of a lot more and wouldnt mind good things for him and his family. Dude is solid and has really worked to turn around his life. Credit given to Sark. No credit given to t.u. football fans....

UTrans fans have said this exact same thing in every single year since 2006

And they’ve averaged just 7 wins per season since 2006

Enough said. If you want more fuel, check out Sarks overall record and also record against top 10 teams. Not impressive and that is the Big 12 for christ sake.

Gonna be a very, very hard fall out of the top 20.

Fools gold as Sark generally cannot win the big games. Simply a fact if you look at the data.

Got to get through Kirby, got to get through DeBoer, probably Ryan Day as well. All of those teams have better rosters and equal to better coaching. All of those teams have been stacking talent at a higher level than Tex. and kicking arse consistently for years.

UT and UTenn have a lot in common, one good year and suddenly they're apparently unbeatable. It's what happens when you're used to living in .500 land
