They’re not. You’re being a blind bitch. The video posted showed our qb quitting. Everyone knows the score but you. 

Dejected does not equal quitting.

I'm telling everyone to stop acting like a bunch of bitches. I'm not saying to not criticize the team or aspects of the game that warrant it, but stop acting like Texas lost the fucking game and that they aren't deep in the hunt for SECCG and Playoffs. 

I get the point that, as a fanbase, it’s a toxic place to be when winning ugly is so negative. I really do. The SEC is a one possession league. Auburn-Mizzou, Florida-MSU, Agro-arky, ole miss-UGA were all one possession wins. We won, it goes down as a win. That is far less humiliating than the alternative for the program. 

Now, which games would you bet money for the rest of the way that we will win? If you really think we are going to win more than maybe one or two (if we get lucky and Arky and MSU shit their own pants like UK did last night) from here, you’re delusional. This offense is undoubtedly the worst I have seen at Texas since the 2014-2015 run and if Arch remains the starter, it may achieve even worse. 

I genuinely do not know how PK has not Buddy Ryan’d Sark on the sideline by now. What a complete and utter fucking waste of incredible defensive talent. 84 fucking plays and 40 minutes on the field last night. Everyone on the defense should be allowed to fuck everyone on the offense’s girlfriends for the entire week…including the coaching staff.

At that position it does 

On the field not in the press conference.

The logic is simple, be introspective after the game and fake till you make it during the game, if he was arrogant in the press conference it would be double bad, instead of just not comming to grips that he needs to lead when the pads come on.

Genuinely appreciate the leadership from Taaffe but the glaring takeaway from that clip is Arch sitting there pouting. This clip doesn't say what you want it to.

Everyone is shitting on these guys. They are balling the fuck out except the offense. 
Get the fuck over yourselves. 

I don’t blame the players at all. I blame our idiotic OC.

I blame both because they are being paid, but pretending screaming is the answer is idiotic, they know they are fucking up, and this is being compounded to make more mistakes going forward, this is a mental hole the same offense that ground down oklahoma is getting in its own head and fucking up touch passes.

I blame Sark for 80% of it though its his arrogance that is causing this.

The offense sucks and it is not getting better. The OL is awful and Arch misses way too many throws. Nothing to smile about there

How about the fucking win. The 4th down stop in OT. The sick punt return. All the TFL. The monster kicks.

Yes I smile about all that. And then I think about the offense going forward. You can do two things at once…

If we can go the rest of the season without a turnover like we have the last 2 weeks and Niblett continues to get huge punt returns then we might keep winning. I’m not optimistic.

I think Arch may have been concussed in that press conference. That last run in OT he got absolutely destroyed and I think hit right in head. Was just blown up.

This season had championship expectations. Single game moral victories are for Aggies. 

Aggies felt strong about having their fate in their hands last year! Caneck! Caneck!

yep, sark and arch have lost this team it appears.  

sark is  such a dipshit to waste PKs amazing defense.  no wonder PK wants out 

Where did you hear this?

didn't you hear?  An aggy posted on the interwebs that he has a friend who knows the big money guys who PK is close to.   He shared the info over a cheez-it charcuterie night.  It was nice knowing you PK.

He used the words “hard” and “win” in the same sentence. The man is 100% head coach material!

You act like Gideon is not on the fast track. He may well be the guy that replaces Sarkisian, or he is the guy that replaces the guy that replaced Sarkisian.

His defense is looking good so far this year. Seems like we’re due for a defensive minded HC hire after going offensive for 2 cycles.

If Kentucky was an anomaly for the offense then I could understand being like "take the win"  but this level of play is the norm and you can't watch this season and think yeah we're on the right track.

Sure, but this all comes down from the top, call slow developing complex run blocking schemes and we are in trouble, talking bottom 100th level performance, (OU got screwed because BV is super aggressive on defense to overcompensate) Simplify things enormously and we can at least take it to 50th percentile.

Screaming is not going to solve a thing either way though, intelligence over stupidity always.

The players have to execute the plays they are given. If they are given the wrong plays then there is little they can do about it. The trick play was foolish. The inability to protect the QB and getting him blasted over and over again is a problem. Banks, Sark, and Flood all need a coming to Jesus talk. Saban gave him bad advice about being a play calling HC. It is time for him to see that. Hire Franklin as the OC. Hire Pittman as well to see if he can help out the offensive line.

PK is a bad motherfucker and I could not be more proud of him. Seeing Akina on the sides makes me happy as well.

Texas got the win on a terrible performance and that is what good teams should do. But some of these issues are systemic and those warrant some changes.

Yeah after the season big changes on offense are needed, that said my main criticism are the people that want some junction boys type stupidity, like always my main criticism is people being stupid and emotional.

I’ve thought about the 3rd and 2 trick play a lot this morning. Truly one of the dumbest fucking play calls I can think of. It should have been the first question to Sark after the game.

Also, using the "players are being paid" bit doesn't move the needle for me because it's the new paradigm and there's no reason to expect today's 18-20 year-olds are going to be magically more accountable and better players than 18-20 year-olds 20 years ago.  They're still the same 18-20 year-old kids, same as it ever was. 

I do think Sark needs to give up play calling and that we need an OC, not a Coach/OC

This is a good point. 16 offensive points in our last two games (some gifted from defense and special teams, one game including an overtime period, etc) and ZERO turnovers. That's really amazing.

Dude, did you watch Swoopes lead Texas coached by Charlie Strong against ND.

Notre Dame, a real football team. 

That is the level of our current offensive production, against Kentucky, a really terrible team. 

Offense accounts for 40% of the team with D at 40% and ST at 20%. 

Speaking of ST, Niblett as a punt returner set up 10 of our 16 points. 3 of the other 6 came in OT when thr offense lost yards. Lost yards. 

So, ST was directly responsible for 13 of 16 points. 

And for emphasis, because it matters, that was against Kentucky who hasn't beaten a SEC team in 9 tries.  

Speaking of 16 points scored, did you know Toledo scored the same amount against Kentucky and Eastern Michigan scored 23? This year! 

But wait there's more.

Toledo got 329 yards on offense vs Texas 179 against Kentucky. 

Toledo.

A win is a win.

Sure, it wasn't pretty. But it didn't have to be. We know this team is a work in progress. Last night, for the first time this season, we won a road game. That's still progress.

Texas has made Michael Taffe a millionaire. Maybe he should whine less about its fans being ungrateful 20 minutes after a disappointing performance, before he’s even had a chance to hear or read any real criticism.
