Sark is going to have to prove he can have a team ready to play well on the road.

Did Sanders get injured against TCU?  If so, that would be 3 QB's in as many weeks.  Someone might want to look into them about now.

He apparently was somewhat questionable to play in the TCU game with a shoulder injury. I didn't watch the game but apparently he seemed to struggle some throwing the ball. I couldn't find much in the way of updates for this week aside from this news story that isn't super informative.

Now this I can agree with. Sark – and this team – needs to prove they can do it on the road.

Wonder who he was directing this to, an official or Texas player?

That was more about them losing the game rather than his QB being lit up by Texas.  All coaches want the calls to go their way and when they don’t and it loses you the game, well that’s when the F-bomb get released.

That was a bang bang 50/50 play that could have gone either way with the game's/season's outcome riding on the call. I'd be upset at any coach not fighting for it.

 We were lucky that the knee possibly being down before the ball came out was not reviewable, only the targeting. Once you're are a runner things get different for a QB.

 Lucky for us also, Dekkers failed to slide. Even more luck, Hutchinson choked on a sure TD drop.

That’s how the game goes.  All of the if’s and but’s.  All you can do is hope it goes your way.   However, if you just go ahead and lead by 2 or 3 touchdowns with 1 minute left in the game you can assure victory every time with certainty.  That requires complimentary football and playing up to your capability consistently.  That is what elite programs do.

But even the elite programs don’t do it every game. Georgia had to come from behind against Misery scoring 14 pts in 4th quarter to win by 4. Alabama almost lost to us and A&M.  Sometimes you eat the cheese even if you know your not supposed to. These are kids.

Rumor was Sanders.

Great news.

I felt there was a noticeable drop-off in coverage and communication after he went down.

From what I am reading so far this morning, it sounds like Sanders could be out this weekend due to his shoulder that was giving him problems before they played TCU.
