I like that Sark has discarded his love for the deep ball with Ewers. We don’t need it. He tried one after we were in control this game and I don’t remember one last week. Keep using Ewers strengths.
This is one of the best parts about everything. Sark tailors his offense to the players, instead of fitting them into a system. That Quinn is this good without a consistent deep ball is proof that Sark is a genius. Quinn's success is going to bring in so many QBs in the following years.

I'm not an expert on recovery but I heard (you can check me on this) that when you are sober you must not lie or do your best to not lie as it can lead to a relapse. Sark appears to be at complete peace with honesty and to me that's probably my favorite characteristic.
He should be honest about it, it's nothing to be ashamed of. Everybody stumbles, so long as you pick yourself back up you can gain from it. The worst parts of life can be turned into incredible strengths. There was a business man by the name of Jack Tramiel who started a company called Commodore that became the biggest home computer company around in the 80s. He was a Auschwitz holocaust survivor, and he said that during meetings when vendors or whomever would get tough with him, he'd stand up, roll up his sleeve, show him his serial number tattoo, and tell them nobody could bully him, and it'd shut up the entire room.
Sark's past is a strength. Any parent worth a shit would love to let their kid get an earful from someone who hit rock bottom and built themselves back up. When he talks about pitfalls and things to worry about, he's got the experience to back it all up. I can't imagine how much his team respects him right now.

This is legitimately the best part about Sark. He's actually inspiring. He was a flawed person who worked to get where he is from the bottom up. I have to think he's probably the most humble coach around given he lost it all before. I love a redemption story, Sark's is great.

I was willing to give Sark a chance just because I hated Tom Herman. Had no strong opinion of him either way prior to the hire, but this dude is looking like he's going to go down as one of the best hires in school history. What a trajectory he has Texas on. That's our coach!

Time for an encore. Quinn Ewers, get your rocks off:
https://www.espn.com/college-football/story/_/id/41166401/in-quinn-ewers-texas-qb-win-national-title
In Quinn Ewers, Texas has the QB to win a National Title
SpoilerANN ARBOR, Mich. -- Vince Young and Texas came to Big Ten country 19 years ago and delivered a statement. Unflappable, Young propelled those Longhorns past No. 2 Ohio State, setting the stage for Texas' magical run to the national championship that ended with Young's iconic dash past the Rose Bowl pylon.
The Longhorns were back in the Big Ten on Saturday. And behind another unflappable quarterback, Texas again delivered a statement -- this time in the Big House -- that these Longhorns are primed for their own title run.
Behind junior quarterback Quinn Ewers, who, like Young did, keeps saving his best performances for the brightest lights, Texas thoroughly dismantled No. 10 Michigan on the way to a resounding 31-12 victory.
"This one game isn't going to define our season," Longhorns coach Steve Sarkisian said afterward. "But I think it would serve as a pretty good barometer of the type of team that we could be."
With the levelheaded Ewers, these Longhorns could be a team that wins its first national championship since 2005.
Facing a Michigan defense still loaded with multiple future first-round NFL draft picks, including defensive tackle Mason Graham and cornerback Will Johnson, Texas moved the ball at will. The Wolverines blitzed. They dropped back. They disguised coverages. They tried everything. Nothing worked against Ewers.
"We did a really good job playing with poise and composure," Ewers said.

The Longhorns converted seven of their first eight attempts on third down, with Ewers finding receivers over and over. He even converted on the other third-down attempt, but his scrambling, 24-yard touchdown strike to DeAndre Moore Jr. on the opening drive was negated by a holding call.
That penalty led to a missed field goal, but it didn't matter. Ewers came back and continued completing passes.
"There's something about Quinn in his demeanor. He's a very calm guy. He's really collected. He never rides the emotional rollercoaster," Sarkisian said. "When you've got a quarterback that everybody can believe in, that just fuels confidence and belief that, 'Hey, let's go do our part, because the guy that's holding the ball every play he's on point.'"
The Longhorns have reason to believe in Ewers, who is now the only FBS quarterback in the country since the start of last season to throw three touchdowns without an interception against multiple AP top-10 opponents, according to ESPN Stats & Info. Last year, Ewers passed for 349 yards in a victory over then-third-ranked Alabama.
Against Michigan, Ewers was just as prolific. He completed 24 of 36 passes for 246 yards, as Texas scored on four straight drives in the first half, including three touchdowns, to put the Wolverines on their heels.
He tossed a 21-yard touchdown to tight end Gunnar Helm, who finished with a career-high seven receptions for 98 yards. Then, after a Michigan fumble in the final minute of the first half, Ewers completed four straight passes, capped with a 5-yard touchdown throw to Matthew Golden on third-and-goal with 10 seconds to go. The pass put Texas up 24-3 and, effectively, put the Wolverines away.
"When he's confident [we feel] unstoppable," Golden said of Ewers. "We [feel like] we can score 60."
But with an improved offensive line now seemingly built for the SEC, and a defense that overwhelmed the Wolverines, Texas won't need to score 60 to keep winning games.
Michigan produced only 88 yards of offense in the first half, and managed to get off only nine plays the entire first quarter -- their fewest in a first quarter since 2011, according to ESPN Stats & Information.
When Ewers swung a 7-yard touchdown pass to running back Jaydon Blue late in the third quarter, the Big House began to empty out.
"I was hoping to learn about ourselves," Sarkisian said. "Would we be overwhelmed by the environment?
"Our guys played a very composed football game. They played tough, they played physical. ... We weren't really trying to come to prove anything. We wanted to play our brand, our style of football."
Nineteen years ago, the Longhorns learned in Week 2 at Ohio Stadium that they had a special quarterback who could lead them to victory against anyone anywhere. Then Young did just that, leading Texas to a dramatic win over USC at the Rose Bowl.
The Longhorns have another special quarterback now. And while other tests lie ahead, Ewers showed again, that with him, Texas is ready to beat anyone anywhere.

How many teams have played Alabama and Michigan in back to back seasons? Seems like kind of hard stat to beat.
Notre Dame has played Alabama 8 times, so basically most of those should have been times because they play Michigan nearly every year. Looks like they've done it 5 times, but only won both once. By nature many Big Ten teams would have done this too, basically any season they ever played Alabama.
And USC would have done it any time they played Michigan in a rose bowl.It's not quite as rare as you'd think. But actually pulling off the two wins is.
wait: durr, got notre dame and alabama mixed up. Yeah, this rarely happens then.
