Texas' Colin Simmons Fake-Pees, Then Sacks Vols 5 Times

TLDR: Texas edge Colin Simmons drew a 15-yard flag for pretending to pee after a sack, then tied a school record with 5 sacks as the No. 1 Longhorns held on to beat Tennessee 20-17.

  1. Texas held on to win 20-17 in Knoxville. That's a road win in the SEC to go with the Ohio State win, and there's no better pair of wins on anybody's schedule right now.

    Fun noon window. Texas holds on, beating Tennessee 20-17 in Knoville. Longhorns have wins against Ohio State and the Vols now. Wake Forest upsets Louisville, Virginia Tech moves to 4-0 and Baylor downs Colorado.

    It was ugly, and it was very Sark. The No. 1 team in the country got outplayed on the ground, kept shooting itself in the foot, and still left Neyland with the win because it had the best player on the field.

    Twister of a game for Sark and Texas. No. 1 Longhorns hang on despite the warts and now own the two best wins in the country through the first month of the season.

    Simmons, a junior, apologized for the celebration after the game, which was the right call. Still, both things are true: he tied a school record in one of the toughest places to play in the country, and he's going to be remembered for the pee first. If he gets 5 sacks without a flag next week, people might start talking about the sacks.
