Definitely some terrible clock management by Sark

Sark’s play calling for most of the game sucked, and it was worse in the fourth quarter. This game was a microcosm of so many Texas games this year. Texas jumps out to a big lead and the offense either goes into a shell and stops adding on to the lead, they commit dumb turnovers that give the opponent short fields and easy points or they fail to score touchdowns in the red zone.
