re: Texas at Missouri

Mizzou got screwed. But so did Texas on that ghost whistle before the half.

SEC refs truly are next-level bad though. I mean bad as in it’s legit to wonder if certain games are rigged.

Curious how the Horns fans see it?

You are right and it’s what’s holding this team back. Aside from just dumbass penalties a failure to execute assignments (did you see the Ole Miss “fake” punt where Texas special teams just didn’t hold the edge; or PI calls because the CB didn’t turn their head; or Arch getting blindsided?)

All points to a lack of discipline which is 100% coaching.

Thanks for letting us know?…
I think the city of Dallas would do everything they could to get them into ATT. Out of fear that a couple years on campuses would make both of us say hey we kinda like this.

OU is going to need some short fields to have a chance. That is possible since the D is still pretty good.

I think Venables will give Sark and the OL fits, enough to keep them in the game way longer than they should be.
I’m expecting that Texas’s offense will be slightly less inept than OU’s, a game that’s closer than it should be in the 4th quarter, and another ugly win for Texas.

That said, this truly is a game where the records don’t matter, historically lots of upsets, and our special teams is even worse than our offense, so a big play or two may tip things either way.

Academic prestige is absurdly overvalued. I went to two cheap public schools to avoid debt and it was the smartest thing I’ve ever done.

Completely agree and I think the only people who care are the professor types anyway.

I did graduate from Texas but I remember taking some summer classes in community college and saying "Man, I learned a lot more in that class than I did at Texas". Smaller classes, more accessible, etc.

And I've never hired anyone because they went to a certain school. Doesn't even enter my mind. I'm sure there are people that do but I don't want an egghead, I want someone with some snap, common sense, values, and will work hard.

I’m a numbers guy. Texas was top 5 when we sucked, and have been #1 in merch sales for years. People watch the teams they love and the teams they hate. Dodgers, Yankees, Cowboys, Lakers… Longhorns, Crimson Tide, Lane Kiffin, etc etc.

A great running game (which uTX is historically known for) and Arch is all they need.

Agree and Arch issues aside this is probably the most frustrating thing for me regarding Sark. Texas hasn’t had a consistent running game since we came to the SEC. Yes part of that is better defenses but our OL has just been atrocious, and I don’t think it’s talent but Sark’s scheme. No reason a school like Texas shouldn’t be able to pound it and then flip it out to receivers when they load the box. Sark makes things too complicated. I don’t care how much of an “offensive guru” he is, if the players can’t run it it doesn’t matter.

So that must mean they’d beat Bama by 5-6??
quote:

but still offense has to concerning for Texas.

It’s extremely concerning. As is the lack of discipline across the team.

The defense is going to keep us in a lot of games but it’s baffling how anemic the offense has been.

This should be an embarrassment for Simmons (he will realize when he matures), an embarrassment for Sark, an embarrassment for Texas and their alum/fans and an embarrassment for the SEC. Sankey should grab his junk and fine Texas for embarrassing the league…but we know he won’t.


I think it says as much about Sark as it does the kid. They just play very undisciplined football. Bonehead penalties, missed blocking assignments, on and on. It’s painful watching the Texas offense and while Arch makes some mistakes, I pin the greater part on Sark and his system/style.

The defense is real and makes us a top 10 team, and winning at Neyland isn’t easy, but there are 2-3 teams on our schedule that I think will put a foot in our a$$.

Sucks you guys got saddled with the Big Noon kickoff time slot because TV demands LSU get every night game

Well this year there’s something that people hate more than Texas and that’s Lane Kiffin. TV execs know people watch the teams they love and the teams they hate.

No, believe me they know about it. How would you like having to live next door to this?

It wasn’t just Crockett, 30k Volunteers came to save you from the Mexican army.. Tennesseans are the men you came running to when your alligator mouths wrote checks your tadpole asses couldn’t cash.

To be honest I've always felt there's a special connection between Texas and Tennessee due to Tenn volunteers at the Alamo. The connection continues today w music, culture, etc.

But with due respect, Tennessee didn't send 30K volunteers to Texas. Maybe 30K "settlers" after the war was won. If in fact they had sent 30K volunteers to Texas then (a) we would have had a 5:1 advantage over the Mexican army and the Alamo, Goliad, San Jacinto would never have happened, and (b) after crushing them at the Rio Grande we could've kept rolling into Mexico City.

This said, many of us in Texas do recognize and appreciate the contributions by those from Tennessee. But Davy Crockett could only have dreamed of having 30K volunteers for the military from Tennessee there with him.
