- Despite criticism, Sarkisian has refused to change play callers or make immediate staff changes, including retaining Jeff Banks as special teams coordinator despite poor special teams performance.
- Texas's penalties, turnovers, and third-down conversions rank poorly in the conference, reflecting a lack of discipline and effective coaching under Sarkisian.
