"Is Sark trying to overtake Kiffin as the biggest douche in college football?
Seems like maybe"
Sark has a history of following in Kiffin's footsteps and trying to go beyond him, so...

Strip out the editorialized first two paragraphs from the reporter, and what Sark said isn't controversial.
Makes.for poor aggy troll posts though.

Dang, and you are a horn. You pretended to be an LSU fan but were taking digs at them this offseason.
Poor horn.
Poor horn.

Not sure there's really many SEC contenders that have intentionally avoided big OOC opponents. Hardly, say, LSU or Alabama's fault Clemson and FSU aren't top 20 matchups.

He has to because they missed it last year. Texas schedule is difficult this year. Can't lose to under .500 teams and still make it.

So he wants those schools to shudder and close their football programs? I get what he's trying to say, but he's also overlooking the fact that those games make those schools a substantial amount of money towards their own programs that they may not get elsewhere.
Dumb take.

Yep, I wouldn’t have done it bc I’m an humble person and try to let my work speak for itself, but the people who sign his checks don’t pay him to be humble. He’s doing what he has to do.

They play Clemson and two scrubs just like Texas played OSU and two scrubs.
Unless you meant Southern California, in which case I have to ask why are you talking about Southern California?

UGA’s schedule is particularly pathetic
Georgia plays 10 P4 opponents and 2 cupcakes just like every other SEC team, including Auburn.

It's a rotating SEC schedule. If Georgia's schedule is garbage every year, then everyone's schedule is garbage.
Rotate
: to perform an act, function, or operation in turn
: to cause to pass or act in a series
The SEC (Georgia) schedule has been a joke, and everything but a "rotating schedule" until last year.
Georgia has NEVER played in College Station since A&M joined the SEC in 2012.
Georgia has played Alabama 2 times in Tuscaloosa since 2008 (17 years), and played LSU 3 times in Baton Rouge since 1999 (26 years).
Playing in away game once every 10 years is not a rotating schedule.

Dark can be an arse sometimes… but when teams schedule Ohio St, Bama, Georgia, usually LSU, Oregon, Miami, and a few others…. Those programs usually have athletes and come to play.
Texas scheduled Ohio St. hats off.

Well Sark is right. Most SEC schools don’t have the fortitude to schedule the powerhouse Texas State.

I'm glad you were able to look up the definition of rotate and see that I'm correct. It's a rotating schedule. Georgia rotates through the SEC, just like everyone else. Maybe you misspoke and were trying to say that Georgia and Indiana's schedule used to be garbage every year? That doesn't make much sense because who even cares what Indiana's schedule used to be. I know that since 2021 Kirby Smart's record against (final) ranked teams at Georgia is 23-7. Since 2021, Sark's Texas record vs (final) ranked teams is 13-14. Congratulations, I guess.
Or maybe you meant Georgia's schedule was garbage every season since Texas joined the SEC?
2024 ranked teams played (regular season)
Georgia - 5
Texas -1
2025 ranked teams played (regular season)
Georgia - 3
Texas - 5
Welp, if Georgia's schedule has been garbage every season since Texas joined, looks like Texas' schedule has been garbage too. Except for Georgia, who has beaten them all three times they played.
