Indianas backs look huge compared to Wisner and Baxter.

Indiana just holding like a mf. Indiana looks so efficient though.

Holy shit you dipshits: 9-3 Texas is probably in the playoffs
Florida played 5 playoff contenders and was within a possession with every single one of them going into the 4thQ. I feel like the “4-8 Florida” thing requires some context. They have elite players at premium positions that would start for a lot of these fraud playoff squads.

Whoever made that graphic strategically left out the UGA head to head.

Texas vs. Texas A&M - 6:30pm on ABC
A&M is too rigid in their defensive philosophy, you could tell in the pre-game interviews Sark knew he could break their “rules”. Also Elkos 4-2-5 is just not sound against outside zone concepts, it doesn’t matter where he lines up his backers. PK is now 9-0 vs Klein. A&M will have a hard time winning this game if things remain status quo.

Texas Recruiting Notes 2026: Boulevard of Broken Bagmen
I’ve watched Cruz in person a couple times, I think he runs away with the center spot. He’s a sharp kid. Hes strong as an ox. He moves very well in space. Goosby and Baker are solid young bookends, both have a chance to be great next season. Texas is committed to the HS model. I think they bring in one OG and one swing tackle type.

Texas vs. Texas A&M - 6:30pm on ABC
Posted this in the “random game thread” last weekend. Such a predictable outcome: On 11/22/2025 at 9:28 PM, CastHorn said: I’ll never understand all that line stunting. It seems to get you gashed more than anything else. That’s why we kick OUs ass consistently with Venables at the helm, he loves slanting against our outside zone. So does A&M, wouldn’t be surprised if we run all over them again.

Most predictable shit ever. They can’t help themselves. It’s no coincidence our run game comes alive vs these overly aggressive fronts. They’ll never adjust either because it’s in the dna of their defense. They get all these gaudy TFL and Sack numbers but can’t defend a stretch or outside zone concept to save their fucking lives.

Kansas giving the ballgame away man. Two unnecessary picks in the redzone.

The Jayhawks outsmart themselves in the redzone. Just run the ball on these soft ass Utes.

2026 RB Jett Walker
I think I prefer Minnesotas other RB commit out of El Paso. Walker looks like a solid specimen though that wants to be here. Him and Coop are probably going to get a lot of run next season if they can pass block.

BYU just went for two up 12 with 52secs left. Lmao.

Look like the Cincy WR was concerned about the corner snapping his ankle, he just checked out of the play and dropped the ball.

That looked like a catch & fumble to me.

Bring in Gideon as HC & get the best OC out there. Problem solved, you could even salvage your elite defensive recruiting class. National Title Cups for Everyone. The drops issue may linger though.

Texas Football 2025 - Seven Win Steve Rides Again
Is it? We’ve put out a ton of NFL guys as of late so it is hard to criticize Becton. Although the team isn’t “tough”. They catch blocks and go down with minimal contact. You have to question the strength regime.

This is who Steve Sarkisian is.
There is that mic’d up YouTube Video of him in ‘09 at USC. He would chew somebody out, then coddle them in the next sound bite.

Texas Football 2025 - Seven Win Steve Rides Again
Assuming the staff remains this off-season what’s our off-season grocery list look like? * RB room has to be cleaned out, I don’t know what the hell they were thinking with this group. RB injuries have essentially derailed two national title births in a row. How do you enter the season with CJ Baxter and Tre Wisner? Warriors for sure, but they are running on bald tires. * Veteran presence in DB room. Betting on development got you in trouble this year, we need at least one body at S & CB. * Low Ball Wingo, let him walk to Mizzou if he doesn’t accept WR2 money. You got to inject some speed, hands, & route running into this room. * Offensive line has some nice pieces. I really like our tackle duo. Baker has become really solid. Goosby was back to his old self when he didn’t have to worry LG jailbreaks. Daniel Cruz is a kid I’ve seen live, strong as an ox and smart. Nick Brooks has potential but you can’t rely on him to take a starting spot at G. You got to bring in at least one guard and swing tackle type. Most of that room is really young and inexperienced, I don’t think a move like that would abrasive to the roster model. * Whoever was in charge of backend coverage probably needs to be replaced. Taffee and McDonald are good enough to not be exploited as much as they have at times. Starting Guilbeau at the opposite corner all season was just a net negative. You could have jump started the development of a guy like Kade Philips. What is Gary Patterson up to? * Jeff Banks likely has to go. I don’t think he’s elite as a special teams guy or a TEs recruiter/developer. It’s year 5 and only Herman’s guys have made a difference. No one can catch or block. * I think you have to take a long look at Flood as well. Sarks offense is inherently finesse. The big human thing hasn’t translated. Not only are you not physical, but you can’t even get to a spot to get infront of a guy. The state of the Guard spot is also shocking in year 5. * Linebacker is interesting. You have some nice pieces returning and entering the program. I’d try to lure a guy like Justin Williams out of Georgia. A freak that’s been buried on the depth chart and is from Conroe. Even if he doesn’t start, it’s a veteran plus athlete at the position. Thoughts?

This is who Steve Sarkisian is.
He got burned betting on Wingos development. He got burned staying loyal to the RB room, which is insane, because RB injuries cost him at least one national title appearance. I don’t know what happened with Neto at LG, but he got burned on that too. Texas bet on the development of a roster they spent a lot of time and money retaining. It never came to fruition. Roster management was mediocre.

This is who Steve Sarkisian is.
Sark is not perfect, but some of y'all are being irrational. The dude has developed more draft picks in his tenure than the entire decade plus prior. He has been to conferences championship games in two separate conferences, and is a bit unlucky to not have won both. He’s won two playoff games against the ACC champ & Big12 champ in consecutive weeks. He has neutralized our rivals for the most part. That being said his program is not physical. His offense lacks violence. He has definitely been burned on some roster management decisions.

Walker looks like he’s a nursing a hamstring or something. It never looks like he’s at top speed.

that was crazy that the Vandy DB had to be told by his teammate to get back to cover Coleman on that last play.

State seems to be roughing up the Dawgs pretty good and exposing some successful offensive concepts. That’s all you can ask for.
