Texas coach Steve Sarkisian couldn't beat Nick Saban last week. That didn't stop him from borrowing some wisdom from the old master. 'To quote my old boss, 'We gotta be careful of the rat poison of people telling us how good we are,” Sarkisian said.
. Sticking close to 'Bama as three-touchdown underdogs created a lot of buzz that once-powerful Texas may indeed be on the rise again.“A week ago, everyone told us how bad we were, now this week everyone wants to tells us how good we are,” Sarkisian said. “We have to be careful to quiet the noise outside of our building.”In 2016, Texas followed two straight losing seasons with a pulsating, national television win over Notre Dame.
And just last season, Sarkisian's Longhorns were blowing out Oklahoma 28-7 after one quarter. Those 15-minutes of near perfect football had everyone's attention. Texas still lost to start a five-game losing skid, the program's longest in 65 years. Sarkisian wouldn't say anything about their availability this week, but there were signals that freshman Charles Wright could start.
