Texas Football 2021 In-Season Thread: Can we get a redo?
longshot, but here's my parallel after Saturday. 10/9/99, bag o'dicks 1st year as coach @ ou. ou jumps up 17-0 in 1st qtr, Texas outmuscles ou the rest of the way to win 38-28. Big lead for first year HC with a team that had been down (John Blake anyone?), then the favorite and better team gets their shit together and wins the game. Fast forward to the next year and ou starts beating the shit out of us on the reg. Maybe, just maybe, Saturday was just Sark and PK getting a feel for the spectacle that is TX / ou, and we go on a run staring with the Big12 Championship game. Call me a dreamer, but I'm thinking Sark is a good fit and just needs more players on D and O-line to really get things humming.

ALDS: White Sox @ Astros
10 runs. But Ryan Tepera said/implied the Astros didn't swing well away from home. Anyone got his great scouting for the next series?

Texas opens as a 6 point favorite v Oklahoma State
at this point you have to wonder if shitty tackling is actually strategy. Get'em down, but not too rough because you know any backup qb or running back is going to kick start their heisman campaign if they have to come in against us.

Texas O-line talk
I should probably spoiler this in case there are people with underlying conditions, but this is the O-Line coaching history since 2015: I am very hopeful that Flood is the one to stop the O-Line Coaching Regard train.

Texas O-line talk
At this point I'd take "marginally better than" anyone on the o-line. Also, remember Parker Braun went into a COMPLETELY different system with Tom Herman as the HC. Maybe for 1 year we can divert any funds from the Burnt Endz to offensive tackles and just money whip some transfers and stud recruits to turn it around quickly in '22. Until then, I think Flood is actually doing his best to make chicken salad out of chicken shit.

[Game Thread] Texas vs. ou - 11am on ABC
This. So far, still on the Sark train, but I do wonder why so little KRob on the edges, and so little Bijan in the passing game today.

Defense (except Overshown and Jameison) and O-Line should have to walk back to Austin (and be denied corn dogs)

Negative Recruiting Your Own School: The aggy Screenshot Megathread
hahaha. So much idiocy. I feel dirty, but I looked on 12thman.com and found since 2000: aggy home record: 97 - 46 (67.8%) aggy home vs. ranked opponent 15 - 26 (36.6%) home vs. ranked Texas 1 - 4 🤘 So many "big games" largely won because of the fans 😂

Negative Recruiting Your Own School: The aggy Screenshot Megathread
This is what is getting more and more funny to me. Anyone even remotely questioning St. Jimbo always presents some sort of "but I'm still 100% behind Jimbo" or "Jimbo will not doubt figure it out, but" so as not to be crucified by the masses or billy boy himself. With each game, Jimbo looks more and more Chizik, but they fail to see it. Outstanding.

That ain't Shelley, Urban...
Lotta hate for Charlie here. Sucked as a coach here, but I don't know of anything driving the hatred. He wasn't the shit ball that mensa was. I think it would be awesome if he took over for Urbs and went .500 the rest of the way.

Anyone putting together a pool on what medical condition he cites when stepping down? Cyst returned 3/1 Covid 8/1 Ulcer 10/1 Anal Fissures 3/2 Finger Herpes from finger banging rando blonde 100/1 We need a way to wager rep points on things like this.

klanaggy pirate @ soldier texums :: 6pm SECN
I'm I the only one that fully expects to see a Grackle scoreboard built by them, sparing no expense of course, if he shows up 1 more time this season? Cause you know, tradition. I'm sure there will be some incredible narrative they only now recall about the great Grackle of 1939. Returning from a tour of duty guiding our brave boys to victory on the battlefield only to find some weary fans of the visiting team lost on their way to the game. Cpt. Grackle used his last bit of strength to guide those lost souls safely to the game where they were treated like royalty - convincing them that, except for the school they attended, they would surely be aggy fans moving forward.

Texas O-line talk
It's almost like they have been recruiting and being developed at an extremely high level for years, and didn't have mail-it-in-mac, potato and Mensa working on their lines.

Good win by Sark today.
Yes - stupid penalty, but It seemed like they did that after the first TO and no penalty. TCU seemed to do it as well. Then on the next TO, Texas does it again and gets the penalty. I never saw a full screen shot of any of them, but it looked like both teams trying to mimic the NFL bullshit of taking the whole damn defense to the end zone to pose after any turnover.

[Surly Official] Texas @ TCU Game Thread - 11am on ABC
I didn't love the 4th down call on the goal line - I'd prefer Ro-Cat there. Also a few times in the 3rd when they were selling out on middle runs, I thought there were some opportunities to get K.Robinson involved on the edge a bit more. Agree, reminding Worthy to wipe the KY off his hands before going in the game would be a good idea.

[Surly Official] Texas @ TCU Game Thread - 11am on ABC
This. Patterson coaches like an all-time HoF coach against us. Sark and team faced adversity and we came out with a solid W. Some questionable play calls, but feels to me the team is growing. Needed to win an ugly one to continue to build confidence and experience. Bring on the land-thieves.

Miami (FL) @ Virginia; 6:30, ESPN
Exactly what I was thinking. Unless Oregon runs him off, I cannot see Miami drawing him away. They have become a job for the Hermans, Sumlins, Chadwells or Elko's of the world. Big time coordinator moving up to HC or small school success step-up.
