I really think being on the road in Fayetteville, College Station and Ann Arbor are big trap games for the horns and also can’t forget the RRS as well. Your schedule is a lot harder than people think. I just don’t see them winning all 4 of those games.

I repeat, Sark is not the finisher.
I disagree. I think he's assembling a great roster. I think the Manning kid is the real deal.
I see Sark kinda like Dabo. If he has the best QB in the country, he could win a championship. Otherwise he won't do much. But Manning might be the best in the country

Everyone loves a second string QB

3 or 4 losses? If it's 4 losses, with that schedule, the natives will be restless. This is kind of like Sarkisian's real debut as the next guy up. He had a lot of close calls and a few big wins in the B12. Bigger stadiums, bigger linemen, and let's see what's cooking on the Barbee mate.

Sucking up to the rant for approval is a bad look
Texas goes 10-2
Texas goes 10-2

He hasn't stuck around long enough anywhere to finish as HC, (Washington was a disaster, he improved the team greatly..enough to draw attention from USC) why do you think he can't do it?
I'll just say - too many red flags. Hopefully I'm wrong.

There are only two schedules in the SEC
1) with Vanderbilt
2) w/o Vanderbilt
Analysis beyond that is idle time.

Where do you see 4 loses on your schedule?
Michigan is gutted from last year and should be a cake walk
OU and Georgia in back to back weeks is tough so lose one of the 2 there.
Florida will be at the end of a very tough stretch so dont see them being an issue plus you get them at home.
Only other one that may be an issue is going to the aggies for their superbowl.
Dont see how yall lose 4 of those 5 games.

4 losses could happen with just these non-home games:
at Michigan
vs OU
at Arkansas
at A&M
Then, of course, there's Georgia at home...

To add more context - I see Texas starting off 4-0, then going 4-4 to finish out.
So pick 4 losses from the last 8 games.

Strange. I've felt like I"m in the minority about sark. I feel exactly the same, especially when he allows PK to go into a prevent trying to protect leads. He's very good but I don't think elite.
I've got us for 3 L's. I hope he proves me wrong but I have the same feelings about Sark.

good post. ready for the season to start. wasn't a fan of UT\OU joining, but now that the season is here I'm looking forward to OU in tiger stadium in November.
the truth is, UT\OU will be fine......if anything, OU may be the one that has a little bit of "shock" to them. considering their run of winning the Big and some undefeated and 1 loss seasons. the truth is somewhere in between the "UT beat bama so the SEC is overrated" and the "just wait till you hit the grind of the SEC". for example, nick was the GOAT, had GOAT classes all the time, and undefeated seasons were just rare. so going 10-2 and 9-3 isn't terrible, but when you're used to 12-0 or 11-1, it is different. what adding these 2 teams did is made the top end of the SEC a big stronger, and its interesting that its happening right when nick left, but Ole Miss seems to be "hot" preseason. should be a wild year.

He didn't learn that at ALABAMA. There's no room for error in the SEC. Your opponents hope and pray you come into their stadium not ready emotionally to play.

We are in the minority, that's why I keep it on the down low.
Urban's red flags came *after* his NC's. Sark's are already there, so I'm not sure if it works that way.
When Sark was hired - clean the slate. Erase everything - start over. Ok, I guess CDC made that call and so I have to go along with it.
Strike 1 - "Get your effin hands off me mother effer!!"... Uh..no, not elite.
Strike 2 - "sorry y'all for leaving the field and missing The Eyes.."
Strike 3... Strike 4... Strike 5
I'm gonna stop now because the strikes start getting personal and somewhat heresay. Let's just say that Sally Brown made cookies - that's how a coach's wife should relate to players.
