A&M had the goat in 2012. Ridiculous to even bring that up as a consideration.

As far as Milroe, what we've seen thus far is not good. Heck, he was ranked below Stowers the year he was signed. He was talented in HS, thats all that can be said as far as "talent".

could not agree more. the love fest with a coach who has never won 10 games in a season is very short sighted. sark had a nice win. that's it until proven otherwise

Not even a very nice win when you consider how bad Milroe is. Even our 5-7 team & 3rd best QB nearly beat him last year and that was a better Bama team than this squad. Sips just lucky to have such an easy schedule now. Who knows if they'll even have to play the opposing teams' best QB at Baylor (injury) or at Iowa State (suspension for sports betting).

---

Are you taking A&M at home to beat Alabama straight up, then?

Jimbo's Aggies have also beaten Bama when when they were a much better team. Alabama is obviously down this year which happens to every program.

With that said, a&m has lost any recruiting edge they ever had over Texas with being in the SEC so everybody just needs to be prepared to be the bottom of bottom feeders in the state for the rest of our lives.....

The good news for both Texas and Texas A&M regarding this bad Alabama team is that we should all expect a pretty easy win for TAMU when they square off.
The difference between Fisher and Sark is the contract (and we didn't give Sark an NC plaque) Texas can easily part ways with Sark if need be. Not only would firing Fisher hit you in the pocket but it would be a hit to the University reputation.
Look at it this way, you'd have fired Fisher last year if you could have. I'm not all in on Sark but I also knew he needed time. We had a culture problem.

Come on Ags leave off sip comments. It does us no good. Jimbo has got to do the proper job of being a HC this year and basically he needs to win the west. Yes, win the west or he should be gone. We have the talent..

The University needs to start working on an exit plan

We are fully aware of what bad qb evaluation(s) can do to a team / season. Look at our last 2 seasons. We finally have an accurate qb, but there has been another poor Jimbo evaluation...D Corrdinator.

2 Top 10 wins: Bama '21 and LSU '22 - both at home.
One 5-7 season last year.

Ags also have NOT been to a bowl game in 2 seasons.

Keep Up! This is cords other sock...I can only imagine.

Writing is hard for OP. He said he was comparing Sark and Jimbo over the same time period when in actuality he was comparing them over two different time periods. The OP is ******ed in several respects. Most prominent among them is Jimbo having a 5-7 season in year 5 is way worse than Sark doing it in year 1 with mostly another coach's players.

Haha why are you describing Bama like they're garbage? Easy win lol. We very rarely have easy wins against P5 teams.

Not sure what you mean here. I thought we were 5-7 last year. Did I dream that? I guess I'm missing the time span comparison...

That would be asinine. What if Sark has a 5-7 season in year 5? We can't predict that. So you compare first 3 seasons at each school, etc.

Btw if you compare straight up year to year, Sark has been a worse head coach almost every single year except last year. 4 losses or more always.

While I have not made the "request for a switch", I think it's important to note context with respect to these 2.
With that said, one can't deny that Sark is on a completely different trajectory at year 3 than Dumbo was in year 3…..

Just sayin'…..

you do realize that in jimbos third year we finished 9-1 and the number four ranked team in the nation.

What other question marks does Bama have? Is this just sunshine pumping or are you critically analyzing their team vs ours. How do we match up against them from waht you've seen so far?

---

this is remnants of the same Bama team that could've lost 5 games last year. Apparently their OL and DBs were very bad against Sips, according to Bama fans.

---

Stats would tell you that. Milrose was under pressure all night, sacked 5x. Lots of missed tackles on the back end. Not sure if Milrose is as bad as he looked or the OLine never gave him a chance or a combo. As to the DBacks, they gave up over 450 total yds most through the air. Stats don't lie in this case.

Steve Sarkisian has never won 10 games before. His best record was a 9-4 finish in 2014 at USC. Texas will likely reach the Big 12 Championship Game and perhaps win that game for the first time since 2009, but they could also lose 2 regular season games. Even if Texas manages to make the College Football playoffs by becoming a 12-1 Big 12 champion, I think Georgia or Michigan will beat them in the CFP semifinal.

Alabama's dominance already started declining in 2021. Besides a 41-38 loss at Texas A&M on 10/9/2021, Alabama had 4 close wins over Florida (31-29 road win), LSU (20-14 home win), Arkansas (42-35 home win), and Auburn (24-22 4-overtime road win) by a combined margin of 17 points. Last year, Alabama's 2 losses to Tennessee (52-49 road loss) and LSU (32-31 overtime road loss) were by a combined margin of 4 points, but by the same token, their 3 wins over Texas (20-19 road win), Texas A&M (24-20 home win), and Ole Miss (30-24 road win) were by a combined margin of 11 points.

I won't be surprised if Alabama loses 2 or more conference games and does not win the SEC West. The SEC West race is wide open. On Good Bull Hunting, Robert Behrens wrote while there aren't really any guaranteed losses on the Aggies' schedule, there are also hardly any guaranteed wins.

The best and worst case scenario for the Texas A&M Aggies this season - Good Bull Hunting

I think it may only appear to be a nice win because everyone looks at what Alabama has done in the past. I think Alabama loses 5 games this year. At the end of the year, it may not look as quality as it did.

Could the predominant opinion on this board regarding Alabama's obvious decline be more driven by the desperate need for Texas to be bad than the reality that both Alabama and Texas could both be good? And accepting the truth that no one has played more than two games, isn't it also possible that Alabama, Texas A&M, and Texas could all be good teams?

Sark was 34-29 at UW. He imploded at SC. He's 61-47 over his career. Two schools which are historically good and he was at best average. Beating a Bama team without a QB doesn't really say a lot even on the road.

The good with Jimbo is he has brought in talent. He is just being out coached.

Jimbo brought in a good O coach and the O looks better.
Now what if he fires Merkin and gets a good D coach?
He plays the CEO.

The Asset 07 said:

Dude I read it. I just don't think it's a good argument. Jimbo did better than Sark in his first 2+years, but your using a data point that's more condemning of Jimbo because he had a 5-7 season in year 5, not year 1.

---

I agree with you.
5-7 in Year 5 is terrible.

Do you judge Saban on his 34-24 record at MSU?

UW was 0-12 the year before Sark was hired. The UW team Chris Petersen took to the CFP was by and large Sark's recruits as upperclassmen.

Milroe didn't start today. He's seems to be really talented.

Bama looks bad thus far. Or perhaps USF is just good, like Texas and Alabama.

Sark with that death row haircut.

Just gonna leave this here

Eh, Sark is still a weird a-hole. But congrats for digging up random old posts.

Expert analysis.

That Milroe kid is ok..

When he finally saw A&M on the schedule

So Jimbo is the better coach? Hmm…
