0:00.0	Welcome in everybody to the flagship podcast.
0:14.5	I am Chip Brown of Horns 247.com joined by the managing editor of Horns 247 Taylor Estes.
0:22.4	We are recapping a really, really dispiriting 1710 loss at home against number 4 TCU in which

1:58.1	You were hired to match wits with Lincoln Riley in the Big 12. Lincoln Riley left town, leaving Steve Sarkesian as the preeminent play caller, preeminent play designer. And he did that last week against Kansas State. We talked about it. The counters, the powers, the new ways to run the football.
2:21.8	There was none of that tonight.
2:25.0	And once again, Steve Sarkesian called a game like he was down three touchdowns instead of three points.
