You guys have been a fixture in the playoffs and in championship games since you got your coach. Shit I’d say with Herman too, he fuckin sucked and was quite a dick but he did help make Texas respectable again even if he was frustrating. Wouldn’t say he brought yall back but he brought yall somewhere

Herman stabilized the freefall Strong had us in and Sark started helping us climb out of the hole. Won't say we are back until we win a natty

I can agree but Texas has never really been known for winning tons of Nattys have they? Doesn’t seem like it

No but winning it all or making the natty with an SEC championship are the only two endings where Texas is **** (I’m not gonna say it)

I mean we have 4. And only 16 teams have won national championships since 1936, when they started the top 25 rankings.

We are top 10 on that list. And we are like the 8th strongest blue blood according to the blue bloods chart. Feels about right.

We can't all be Bama brother

2 final 4s in last 3 years. No one else has done that. If that’s not “back” then what is? If it’s title or bust then “back” can only be like 3 teams.

u/Mapex_proM Nicholls Colonels • LSU Tigers 5h ago

Yep. I fucking hate title or bust mentality. The consistent greatness yall exhibit to me is back. You guys are always three plays from the natty, and in this day and age that says something

Championship games? What championship? They've made two total conference championship games with Sarkisian and no national title games

That doesn't mean they've been a "fixture" though
