  1. No holding ref? Fuck you. Don't need your flags
  2. multiple missed holds and still get the sack
  3. That was pretty much my interpretation of that discussion as well.
  4. Good job good effort Karic. JFC
  5. Can we please organize a god damn banner with this slogan for the opener next year?
  6. Sark needs to fucking rip their god damn heads off. So sick of this bullshit.
  7. I hate this conference so much. What an absolute fucking joke.
  8. Much better. Amazing what happens when you don't shoot yourself in the foot and just fucking execute.
  9. Such a tired take. This isn't TCU. I have absolutely zero issue with the game plan or play calling so far. I don't know how anyone could. Players have to play.
  10. The refs are a joke but that's every fucking game. That's not going to change until we leave this shit conference. At some point the Offensive players have to decide if they want to be in this game or just head to break.
  11. We've had numerous false starts, complete inability to recognize blitzes letting guys go free, missed wide open TD. Fumbles. Receivers running free. All things we've seen this team execute without issue when they are locked it. Yes, I put the blame on the fucking players for this game so far. This is OSU all over again. Absolute shit execution.
  12. WTF are you talking about dude. Trying to discuss any kind of nuance with people like you is a waste of fucking time. I'll just leave you to being miserable and yelling at clouds.
  13. My issue with you and others focusing on 10 win regular season as a standard are doing so without any context of why 10 win seasons with our current (or next years schedule) is not = to most of the 9-10 win seasons Mack racked up. In Mack's tenure of racking up 10 win seasons, we played 4 non-conference games (almost always consisting of 3 absolute cake walks and 1 mid level Power 5 team we definitely should beat but sometimes didn't (i.e., UNC, Stanford, NC State, Ark. etc.). And back then, the Big 12 was a decent but EXTREMELY top heavy conference. There were at least 2-3 scheduled in-conference wins. Basically every single season we had 6 scheduled wins (easily 3-6 TD favorites in each) + 2-4 games we definitely should win (14+ point favorites) and then 2-4 games that would make or break the season (OU plus whomever was scheduled and good that year out of Nebraska, KSU, Colorado, A&M). It's really no different than what Michigan and Ohio St. have been able to do this year or some of the "fools gold" season Aggy has racked up. SEC teams have built their entire conference superiority legacy around non-conference cupcakes, scheduled wins and an unbalanced conference. Focusing solely on wins and losses without context isn't helpful. That being said, I don't think Sark met expectations this season largely because of the OSU loss. Because in context (how many starters they were missing to injury) that team had no business keeping it within 2 scores.
  14. Are there people on this thread saying with some level of certainty saying Sark is the next great coach at UT? Have I missed those posts?
  15. I don't see many here giving him the benefit of the doubt. I'm hopeful for the reasons you listed and doubtful for the other reasons you listed. I have no idea how the next 2 years will go. I think next season's success is largely dependent on whether or not QE decides it's time to dedicate an off-season working on fundamentals necessary to become an elite QB (and I have no idea what his work ethic is like). My issue are the people on this thread drawing lines in the sand without any context (i.e., 9-3 next year (which likely makes the Big 12 title game) = Fired regardless of outcome from there.
  16. "Our conference is a dumpster fire" tells me all I need to know about your ability to evaluate football. The worst team in the Big 12 beat a team playing in the Big 10 title game. Big 12 top to bottom is behind the SEC currently and that's it.
  17. In a season where we play Bama on the road? Basically what you are saying are your expectations is making the playoff or fire Sark given our schedule next year. Yeah, Texas fans are realistic.
  18. Oh I remember Hornfans meltdowns. But imagine THIS board without any moderation (where the moderators are probably leading the charge) LOL.
  19. Meh. This is every CFB message board after any coach loses games early in their tenure. I can't imagine what this site would have looked like with respect to Mack Brown post 2003 Holiday Bowl. If Sark doesn't work out it will be the same for the next coach. In any given year how many coaches would be given a A or B grade by message board posters? 10?
  20. It all boils down to the 2nd half of the OSU game to me. IT was inexcusable and that was on everyone. Coaches take the blame but it was awful execution across the board. I mean just look at the 9 fucking pre-snap penalties that significantly contributed to our inability to do anything on offense in the 2nd half.
  21. He did eventually with VY and then in the Colt years. He definitely did not pre-VY. We should have been a lot more explosive with the offensive personnel we had.
  22. Counterpoint: In the games we've lost our players are in fact fucking up and not executing in addition to coaching problems. I like Sark's roster building, recruiting, offensive script and demeanor (other than his refusal to tear into the shit officiating). There is a lot I'm not sold on. So I'm not completely defending him and think he could be doing better as well. But let's stop acting the like the players have no fault here. If you are forming your opinion based on what players have to say after losses consider your fucking sources. We've seen absolute poor execution across the board on both sides of the ball in every loss this year except Alabama.
  23. I agree with this for the most part. It definitely feels off. That being said, I'm really looking forward to waking up to world cup games over the holiday weekend and having it on the side TV during the early football games.
  24. Baylor has been consistently inconsistent similar to us. They had a great performance @Tech, solid road W's @OU and @ISU, completely gave a game away to WVU, played too conservative and blew it against TCU and absolutely shit the bed at home to KSU. Who the F knows which team will show up on either side.
