Even if Texas had pulled out a win against Oklahoma, changes were going to be needed. After having as much as a 21 point lead, a total collapse happened on both sides of the ball. Welcome to the Red River Shootout, I guess.
Steve Sarkisian made it clear from early on that whoever he thinks gives Texas the best chance to win games is going to play. However, outside of the quarterback change, he has yet to show he is willing to make adjustments to better the squad.
It finally seems as if a few changes will be made this weekend.
Going into Oklahoma State, Sarkisian has tweaked with a few positions across the depth chart. A couple is due to key injuries but a much-needed change is being made across the offensive line.
Few notes on Texas’ depth chart for Oklahoma State.
– Marcus Washington named as Whittington replacement
