What a hypocrite. He corches at one of the top 3 bag schools. They’ve been getting top 5 recruiting classes by out bidding everyone else, not by winning titles.

Also, our Canes beat the 3 teams that his Longhorns lost to. Talk about being dumb, deaf and blind.

There are several issues to address here.​

1. Sark being a whiny *****.​

Let's take a few choice quotes from the article:

When the richest program says it’s out of control, believe it.

He’s sees Power conference schools — with Texas among them — spending their way to a championship roster, and big-money boosters with more control than ever. In some cases, they’ve become de facto team owners.

“It’s like we’ve forgotten about academics, yet less than 5% of these guys will play in the NFL," Sarkisian said.

Sark and Texas, including Texas's boosters, wanted this. They were a huge part of creating this. They have been sitting on top of CFB's revenue and spending mountain for a long time, scoffing at all the poors and challenging them to even try to catch up to them. Now they want to complain about it? And not only that, they want to throw academic standards in there too? It's the recycled "sliding scale" argument we had two decades ago, and it's ridiculous. Coaches gonna coach, man. Offseason gonna offseason, man.

2. CFPC - do they actually watch the games, and what impact will an expanded CFP make on the CFPC's ability to properly pick the appropriate teams and seeds?​

Now this is the real issue here, and Matt Hayes buried the lede. Sark admits he stopped voting in the polls because he doesn't have time to watch the games and it's not fair (good for him). But he goes on to throw the CFPC under the bus.

The committee doesn’t have the bandwidth to watch that many games,” Sarkisian said. “They see the media and coaches polls, and they copy them. You’ve got a 12-team playoff, and that means there are at least 30 teams that impact it. Now all of a sudden, you want to go to 24? Now the polls become an even greater factor, because now you’re asking (the committee) to watch 40 teams a week — if not 50.

Now CFP Executive Director Rich Clark denied this and assured us that OF COURSE THEY WATCH ALL THE GAMES. But we here at CIS discussed this ad nauseam last season and realized that they cannot not possibly watch all the games considering they also have FT jobs, and that ESPN feeds them highlights of the games, which they all watch together while eating snacks. Seriously.

3. Honorable Mention: Sark is bitter that Miami got into CFP over Texas last year because he really is a whiny *****.​

I'll just copy and paste this part because it needs no editorializing. 🤣

The SEC would move to nine conference games and agree to a 16-team format beginning in 2026, and the committee would use strength of schedule as a significant factor in the selection process. They even added new strength of schedule metrics to the equation.

Yet the difference between Texas and Miami in 2025, Sarkisian says, was one loss — not strength of schedule.

Texas lost road games at Ohio State, Georgia and Florida, the latter likely preventing the Longhorns from earning a spot in the playoff. That one loss, Sarkisian said, shouldn’t have negated three Top 10 wins: No. 3 Texas A&M, No. 6 Oklahoma and No. 9 Vanderbilt.

Miami finished 10-2 in the ACC, and like Texas, failed to reach its conference championship game.

“(Miami coach) Mario Cristobal is a friend of mine, and they had a tremendous season’” Sarkisian said. “Miami lost to two unranked teams last year. What would their record have been if they played our schedule? What would our record have been if we played theirs? But there’s scheduling inequity.”

Cristobal has a simple response: “We beat the three SEC teams we played, including the team (Texas) lost to.”

Guy who complains about polls then uses polls to justify the strength of Louisville and SMU who both finished 9-4 lmao. Louisville beat Kentucky so bad the coach got fired. Texas beat Kentucky by three points in an overtime game.

UF beating Texas allowed Billy to stay on the job for an extra week. Meanwhile, USF, who we also smacked, beat UF. All these SEC slurpers have memory-holed Alabama’s loss to FSU lmao. We should’ve been ranked ahead of them. UGA’s only loss was to Bama too; UGA beat Texas.

A third of Texas’ wins came against San Jose state, UTEP and San Houston State — lmao. Arkansas went winless in the SEC, another one of Texas’ wins. Miss State, another one of Texas’ SEC overtime wins where it just means more, had one conference win — against winless Arkansas lmaooo.

We have beaten A&M twice in the last 3 years now; one of their wins as well as Vandy who lost to Iowa in their bowl game.

Texas fans really think they were next up to get in and not Notre Dame. . .. . Hilariously, they use A&M as a common opponent to state why they should’ve been above ND then shrink from the common opponent metric when talking about Miami and UF ahahaha.
