Winner of Ala. Geo. in.
Winner of Mich. O. St in
Winner of Oregon Wash. in

Leaves Fla. St. who proably play Louisville beat Louisville and in. IMO Fla. St is Texas's chance to get in other 3 are set in stone.

Florida state will have to lose one game for them to move past them

As we've discussed, it's a great time for Texas to start strengthening their résumé.

He nailed it. Patently absurd is right.

Good night on the Longhorn Network. Volleyball vs Iowa State then men’s basketball vs Rice.

 

[Eastexhorn]

Speaking of basketball Ladies are off to a hot start 3-0. Looks like they have some shooters this year.

Pierce signed #3 class including 2 Jr. Col. players. One might be a misprint 1B/ OF listed at 5-10 255 lbs. High school turning out big ones.

Texas has been very lucky to even be in this discussion. Without our best back, we will be lucky to even win the Big 12, let alone play for the national championship.
With Quinn and Brooks returning next year the horns should be better, and be able to really compete in the CFP.
I don’t think we are ready for that stage this year.
I will be happy with a Big 12 title and whatever bowl we get.

Volleyball team beats Iowa St 3-1 to win the Big XII Championship outright!

We need chaos - Tenn to beat UGA. Michigan to beat Ohio State but be forced to vacate their wins. Oregon State beats Oregon and Washington.

The one thing that could change the pac 10 is Oregon State has both Oregon and Washington left. They are a quality football team, I will be interested to see how they fare. I do agree Sec and Big 10 champs are locks. Texas needs to take care of their business, and then see where the chips fall. I do agree with most, this Texas team should be better next year, we may be a year early.

the only thing we control is our own record, win and hope we dont get screwed by the CFP committee

Sark is the ONLY one to get in PK face, he gives the defense a 20 point lead and they dont hold it, thats not a Sark problem that a PK problem, this aint Boise St or Washington where the offense was scoring 40. He is stuck with PK this year but this is two years in a row where the defense cant maintain leads , maybe Sark need to go shopping for a DC that will put a shut down championship defense on the field. We are the only team in the Top Ten who cant manage a 20 point lead

It’s both, but falls on the HC. If sark is to remain play caller, he needs to remember as OC your job is to score points. Those points can be scored in an aggressive way and in a conservative way. It is the OC’s job to find that rhythm of the game. Just going conservative with a 20 point lead regardless of success is on the HC. He wears both hats. If he can’t get out of his own way, if the sark OC is causing the Sark HC problems in the flow of the game….he needs to realize that. PK’s defense is giving up points in the second half. Tge offense keeps giving the opposition more possessions without scoring points. At some point the balance has to be found. Is that making sense? It does in my head.

All responsibility and accountability falls on Sark HC. If he’s blinded to it because he’s so focused on calling the offense, maybe he needs to step back and hire an OC.
