Texas keeps finding ways to win big games, but sloppiness could cost Longhorns everything down the road

The Texas Longhorns secured a hard-fought 20-17 victory on the road against Tennessee, though undisciplined play threatened their success. Edge rusher Colin Simmons dominated defensively with five sacks against freshman quarterback Faizon Brandon, yet drew heavy scrutiny for an inappropriate unsportsmanlike celebration.

Head coach Steve Sarkisian acknowledged that while his squad regularly wins high-stakes contests, they must clean up operational sloppiness, such as eleven penalties and special teams miscues, if they hope to contend for a national title.
