Quick Thoughts and Takeaways: Texas falters again in 2nd half for second straight week

nothing wrong with the play calling....the EXECUTION of the play called is a different subject altogether...if a play works and goes for  six, Sark looks like a genius, but if it gets blown up its inadequate ...really ?

I find Sark's play calling refreshing compared to that from both the Strong and Herman eras, but as much as he would like to open up his playbook, he knows he doesnt have the personnel to execute his bag of tricks...XW is not Devonta Smith (not yet anyway) and CT and HC are not Mac Jones...but Bijan is in the same category as Derrick Henry, maybe even better
 You are delusional. I can't count how many times Bijan has been sent between the tackles for nothing. Especially when the game is on the line. How many times do you have to run into a wall before you go around it. Bijan is no Henry, he can't move piles. The play calling, especially in the 2nd half's has been horrible. So has the personnel decisions.

 It looks like they scheme out the 1st few possessions and follow that plan. It has worked. Then after that someone (kneeling with a clipboard) starts improv and it goes right down the toilet.

We hire coaches with 1 big well paid objective. Win the Big 12 conference. As a consolation to that win at the Red River Shootout and keep your job. Anything less is failure. That has been the Texas standard for decades.

 Maybe I could live with 1 generational comeback against us at the Red River shootout. To back it up the very next week with another job (it takes work) of snatching defeat from the jaws of victory is no longer a coincidence, it's a trend.

Mack's objective was win 10 games conference titles did not matter
So true. I think that standard may have been lowered too.  

Mack's era was so full of shady dealing that eventually even that low bar wasn't enough to keep his job.
