Sark has come a long way since his personal problems dominated him during his time at HC out west.
His is a good story.
That said, I’m predicting a loss for his Longhorns on Saturday. Bet your money on this sage advice.

I'm predicting it to be a double digit loss by the Tigers just like the last five years in postseason. when we play elite teams LSU (2019), Ohio State (2020) and Tennessee (2922). We have played awful after an open date this year too like the Louisville game. Total lack of preparation by our staff.

Valid points, but I’m looking for a Clemson win in Austin. This will be a good first look at our 2025 team! They have a complete season behind them, and Dabo will have the Tigers ready.
The OC and DC better call a great game and keep the pressure on Texas. That means Cade throwing the ball and running for first downs, and the Defense has to bring pressure all game long, BLITZ!!!! If we play a 3 man D-Line, bring a LB or DB to attack and contain their QB….
Go Tigers, Whoop Texas!!!

I’m not sure TX is actually elite. They certainly are no 19 LSU or 20 OSU. Go rewatch the 22 TN game and you’ll see it was red zone errors which rolled right into 23. We moved the ball well in that game. We’ve largely fixed the turnovers and hopefully the fg team has some swagger after that SMU game. I think we are the most explosive team TX will have faced this year on offense and probably the second best defense to UGA. You could argue UGA offense also better than us, but regardless TX lost twice to them and the second time to the backup qb in 2H. We shall see, but I’m confident.
Go Tigers!

That's the way I've always seen it too. Obviously they're a good team with blue blood talent as do we. The two games they played against elite talent, they lost. Much like us, the once daunting schedules at the beginning of the season turned out to be an easier schedule than anticipated.
Texas- no Bama, SC, mizzou, ole miss or Tennessee. All of which could have beat Texas. True, Texas D numbers look good. Likewise, our O numbers look good, but both were padded by a softer schedule in the end.
So, to your point, this is not an lsu 19 team or an odu 2020 team. Much more even than most people realize. I like our odds.

Im sure youre a realist but how does fandom work when

said fan is predicting lopsided losses on a fandom message board?
Some things are better kept to yourself. Nothing personal. You seem like a great poster, but it’s “is against the world” and in my humble opinion we don’t need our own fans publicly against us. Make sense?

Now don’t praise Clemson too much Sark because you know Clemson likes the underdog role.

What Sark is really saying is: Dabo the only reason you made it this far is because Syracuse got you in and you made a lucky 56 yarder, you really don't deserve to be in my stadium. My boys are way more talented than anyone you'll ever recruit!! We're gonna kick your Tigers ar$$es, embarrass you on prime time and send you back to SC licking your wounds!! score 42-0 See ya later Dabo!!

Was that your translation because I didn't read that at all. Like everyone else outside of that butt head Paul Finebaum, he respects Dabo and what he's done at Clemson. Two national titles and 7 playoff appearances is second only to Bama.

Kinda funny how much more respect Dabo gets from people across the country who know football than the self-declared experts on TNET who find fault with Dabo for everything.

we caught an easy schedule and had help from Syracuse to get in. We can play well and win but we will need solid football from O and D to do this. No taking the foot off the gas

I don’t get this “had help from Syracuse” mindset. We won more conference games than Miami did, period. Did other conference champions who also lost games have help from xyz team to get in? We lost one conference game. We won our conference championship. We deserve to be here.
Will we win a game? Different question. We are the 12 seed after all.

Classy comments by Sark. Let's hope our Tigers show up on Saturday and give the 'horns all they can handle.
