defense was vastly improved by years end and again the numbers make that
obvious so you dont have to take my word for it

This whole 'Arkansas was SOOOOO much better at the end of the year' crap is just that. They gave up 14 to Alabama and lost by 1 the week after losing to the Ags. Arkansas also lost 2 of their final 4 games including their last game of the year.

Their defense was a little better at the end of the year, but their offense was better at the beginning before their QB got dinged up. They were pretty much the same team all year.

Texas on the other hand, just wasn't any good ALL year.

strong has a BCS win, beating a sec team

mark mangino has a bcs win. So does george oleary (who owned strong). So does dana holgerson.

A lot of middling coaches won a single bcs game. bcs wins are meaningless as that era is over.

Sumlin has yet to win a conference championship in 7 years as head coach . It is all about what is acceptable results for the money being spent .Going 6-7 at 3 mil a year like Strong cannot be acceptable but is a one year sampling.Going 3-5 in the SEC west in your 3rd year at 5 mil a year cannot be acceptable eitherIf either side is happy with these results that may be the problem

Texas didn't play a "dinged up" QB

Arkansas FBS opponents average points per game first 5 weeks of the season: 30.5 PPG

Following a bye week after the A&M game, Arkansas' defense gave up an average of 15.0 PPG over their final 8 games of the season. Over the final 6 games of the season that average shrinks to 10.3 PPG. Over the final 4 games of the season that average shrinks to 7 PPG

The defense got a "little bit better?" GTFO

You're right Texas wasnt very good all year but then neither was A&M which is my point ITT when comparing these two coaches head to head in year 1 and year 3 of their respective programs.

If Texas wasn't any good how exactly then do you reconcile the fact that at similar points in the season Texas handled a common opponent that gave A&M a game? What label then would you put on Texas A&M's season?

I thought strong makes 5 million per year?

So basically t.u went 6-7 yet these clowns think its pretty close to what A&M did in the SEC?

Yeah, Im done with these idiots

I bet all that Juice Coach Scrong has been shooting has shrunk his pods.

Vote this sip down

[ Then why quote it ?]

59 yards of total offense

That's the 1st, 2nd, 3rd & 4th quarter combined.

59 total yards.

Less than 15 yards per quarter.
