Texas was seemingly back with authority against Oklahoma on Saturday, at least until the second half started.
After getting off to a scorching hot start that had the college football world in the palms of their hands, the Longhorns did what they do best when they experience success, and that is to simply face plant.
It was far too Golden State Warriors and Atlanta Falcons-esque as the Texas fumbled a 28-7 lead over Oklahoma.
The offensive line, again, was a major issue during the game as quarterback Casey Thompson was under constant pressure, and if it were not for running back Bijan Robinson being as elusive as he is, he also would have had a poor game.
The defense, who played well enough to likely end the Spencer Rattler era in Norman, were absolutely exposed by freshman sensation Caleb Williams.
The frustration is understandable as the team underperformed and resembled the teams coached by Tom Herman. There were multiple decisions made by the new coaching staff that heavily contributed to the loss. Steve Sarkisian has not made many decisions where I have questioned him as much as I did while watching the Red River Shootout.
Here are my four biggest questions stemming from Texas’ loss against Oklahoma.
