.@CoachSark beginning his press conference: "I thought our guys played really hard, which is something I've been trying to stress and emphasize. Thought we had really good mental intensity in the first half in all three phases."

Sark: "I thought it was great atmosphere Saturday. I thought DKR was rocking."

Sarkisian: "Inevitably, I'm trying to call the things that a) fit the opponent that we're getting ready to play and b) that our players have shown to execute well."

Sark labeled Xavier Worthy a mature competitor who works hard. Nothing has been too big for him since stepped on campus.
“He’s wired the right way DNA wise, that’s for sure,” he said. #HookEm

Sark: "We're not naive to the fact we're 2-7 against TCU the last 9 years. We're also not going to buy the lie that we're going to play the same TCU team that just played SMU on Saturday."

Sark said the #Longhorns injury situation remains status quo. If that’s the case, we probably shouldn’t expect to see WR Troy Omerie (knee) and CB Jahdae Barron (knee) in the TCU game. #HookEm

Sarkisian on Bijan Robinson's physicality: "He is playing a physical brand of football, but he has a unique balance about him to keep his feet, redirect, and continue to go forward." pic.twitter.com/WfF2Riiior

Sark singled out Moro Ojomo’s play, Keondre Coburn’s effort, how well DeMarvion Overshown is playing, Josh Thompson’s physicality/communication, Anthony Cook’s play and Luke Brockermeyer’s ability to find the ball as what’s standing out on defense in recent weeks. #HookEm

Sark said that 11 a.m. kickoffs maybe aren't ideal for some. But the Horns practice in the mornings, and coaching staff got to spend all afternoon with recruits after Tech win.

Sark on what’s changed with the offensive line in the last two week: “We’re getting there with a much nastier demeanor… At the end of the day, you still have to defeat your man. That’s one thing we had to get across.”
— Jeff Howe (@JeffHowe247) September 27, 2021
Sark thinks WR Joshua Moore will soon have a bigger impact: "The numbers will start to show the player that he is. I think it’s just a matter of time before we hit a couple of those (deep) shots."
