That's a pity really, for him, though he makes millions anyway.  This is petty obviously.

Hopefully they drill OkSU 49-3 despite 28 holding penalties.
You ain't just whistlin' Dixie!  Here's a look at last year's stats when Texas played OkState, take a gander at the penalty stat line...

Still, I hope at the end of the game on Saturday, Sark is able to gladly shake the commissioner's hand, accept the Big 12 trophy

and leave it on the bench as the team heads to the locker room to head home.


I'm not really a fan of magnanimity in this particular situation.  I think it'd be cool if Sark accepted the B12 trophy, spit on it, hit the commish in the crotch with it, and then dropped the trophy and the mic as he and the team exit the stage in silence, horns up in one hand and middle fingers up in the other.

Yeah, and if you had a choice, maybe you'd vote to award it this way because it's so obviously absurd and petty and whatever else.  Rub it in their faces.

In the SEC, I'd give it to Drinkowitz over Smart because Drink did more with less.  Not the case with Texas, as you note.  And I think Smart did a fine job.  Saban did a good job too I think.


I hear a lot of people saying this.  I'm 100% with T-bob and Aaron Murray....that roster has more blue chips than anyone including UGA, there's not a player on the field who was less than a 4-star, I'm not giving Saban credit for putting a sputtering, lesser product on the field in the first half of the season just because he finally got them somewhere close to where they should've been all along.

I think a good coaching job is one where the product gets better as the season goes on.

A great coaching job does that and has them great at the beginning.

We LSU fans are a special breed.  We throw piss bags, hack your phone # and spam your voicemails, and we're even famous for yelling vulgarities at right fielders out in the corner seats and causing them to lose their concentration.  

If Texas needs any help coming up with F-you's on the way out, I'm definitely your guy.

I assume the Horns will feel the same love in both the basketball and the baseball seasons

They won't let me give blood anymore. The burnt orange color scares the hell out of the doctors.

They don't even bother with an Iowa win.  That would be akin to TCU ....
