Texas vs. Florida- 2:30pm on ESPN
That's an interesting point. Obviously, not comparing the talent, but I think about somebody like Tom Brady, who was an absolute psycho when his teammates did something well, screaming in their face, head-butting them, slapping their helmets, jumping on their backs, etc. Fire is kind of important in a game whose design is to try and physically beat the shit out of each other

Butt Fumble Guy in Critical Condition
Maybe he's got CTE. That was a pretty big butt he ran into.

Predict the rest of the season
A team like Oregon would have had 20 points on aggy by halftime last night and it would have been over.

Caldwell should starts
That doesn't make it any less dumb of a chant.

Caldwell should starts
The dumbest chant in all of sports....yes, yes diminish your team's accomplishment by diminishing the opponent they just beat.

Texas vs. Florida- 2:30pm on ESPN
The defense is struggling with the apparent significant downgrade in interior DL capability. It obviously plays out with how bad we get gashed at times by a decent running game, but the quickest way to fuck a QB is for the DL to get push up the middle (even if they don't get home), freeing somebody like Simmons to do what he does when the QB can't step forward and either has to start moving in his direction or is still at that spot deep in the pocket where DEs sort of naturally rush to.

This is who Steve Sarkisian is.
There are exceptions of course (coaching icons like Saban and Meyer and weird cases like Orgeron) but the majority of coaches these days break through and win their first national championship between years 5-10 at their respective school (Day, Smart, Harbaugh, Dabo, hell even Mack). Sark has a little more rope given what he has done so far but if the next few years start to trend away from where years 3 and 4 were, it won't look good for his long-term chances to add to that list and that's when a decision had to be made. Everything else we(I) am doing is just disgruntled speculation because what the hell else are we supposed to do.

That’s what you might want them to do. I’m interested in what Incredulity wants them to do.

So you don’t want to nuke the filibuster. Fine. Then what do you want the Republicans to do given their current proposed legislation doesn’t have the votes?

This is who Steve Sarkisian is.
Well, in Lanning's case, he is 40-6 as a head coach. Those 6 losses have come to Ohio State (the eventual national champion whom he beat earlier in the season), twice to Washington (National Runner-Up), Georgia (National Champion), Washington again, and Oregon State. There hasn't been a single loss to a non-Top 25 team, and over the last two years, all he has lost to are the teams playing for it all at the end. I mean unless you think we are hiring a guy who has already been to the mountain top at this juncture he's about as close as you get.

Nobody, save maybe a few guys who are firmly entrenched, is ready for Texas. We've never actually hired a coach who was "ready" for it. The guys out there right now who are probably ready for it and desirable (sorry Dabo, etc) Ryan Day...LOL Dan Lanning....unlikely And.....who?

It's not, because everything you just said was hyperbole about both guys.- I have zero concerns going forward [OP is a Fucking Liar]
I think that's moved beyond "concern" and into execution phase.- Texas vs. Florida- 2:30pm on ESPN

Only 1 out of 12 stabbed and yet arrested for being a dick prior to said stabbing. Seems like a good run rate.- Texas Football 2025 - Seven Win Steve Rides Again
Some of that, some of it also that the interior D linemen are often eating nobody so those LBs have more blockers getting to the second level type traffic to deal with.- Texas Football 2025 - Seven Win Steve Rides Again
Said it early in the game thread but what Florida was doing with its passing game, especially in the 1H reminded me a lot of the 2023 game against a moribund Houston team. We were playing off and they were smartly running a lot of short routes across the field, letting Lagway get completions to guys on the move, eat yards, keep the chains moving etc. Florida ran the ball a lot better than UH did that day.- This is who Steve Sarkisian is.
Dia Bell is Mr Glass. So I'm less worried about him than can we figure out how to take and develop good O linemen. It's not a mystery that while yes they had great skill players the BEST Texas teams (save 2009) of this century generally had very good to sometimes great O linemen. - This is who Steve Sarkisian is.
