Texas head coach Steve Sarkisian talked about the team's strong start to the season a few days after the win over Tennessee. While there's a lot for the Longhorns to feel good about as the calendar turns to October, he made it clear there's tons of work still to do
"It's been it's been a good start to the season," Sarkisian said "To be 4-0. we got a lot of meat left on our bone as we go. We know what's coming after the bye, so we got to get ourselves ready for that."
A win over a reeling Oklahoma squad wouldn't exactly make college football fans solidify the Longhorns as the unquestioned No. 1 team in the country, but leaving Dallas with a victory -- regardless of how it comes -- is all Texas can ask for given how unpredictable the Red River Rivalry hs been in the past.
