Josh Pate Calls Texas’ Win Over Ohio State ‘Career Altering’ for Steve Sarkisian

College Football pundit Josh Pate believes Texas' win over Ohio State was "career altering for Texas head coach Steve Sarkisian.

In a remarkable comeback, Texas Longhorns defeated Ohio State 24-23 on Saturday, overcoming a 20-point deficit in the fourth quarter. Texas head coach Steve Sarkisian, in the process, may have altered the trajectory of his coaching career, according to college football analyst Josh Pate. The game looked disastrous for Texas early on, as they only managed three points in the first three quarters.

However, clutch performances from quarterback Arch Manning and strategic play-calling from Sarkisian turned the tide. Pate's social media post highlighted the dramatic moments when the outcome hinged on the line, potentially changing the coach's career and Arch Manning's legacy. The win has placed Texas at the top of the AP Top 25 Poll, making it one of the most significant regular season victories of Sarkisian's career at Texas.

The team now aims to maintain this momentum, facing UTSA next and then a Week 4 game against Tennessee Volunteers.
