The SEC Loss Claims Department saw some new faces this week — including two teams from outside the conference. It was the “subject” of the latest edition of SEC Shorts, which dropped Monday morning.

All the current SEC teams showed up, from Texas A&M to Auburn to LSU. Don’t forget Vanderbilt, which has a “fast-pass” to the front of the line because the Commodores are 0-6 in SEC play.

After the current SEC teams were done, the short made fun of a couple soon-to-be SEC teams. The desk worker told Oklahoma where the Big 12’s loss claims department was (“just down the hall, three doors down to the left, just past the water fountain, if you hit the Pepsi machine, you’ve gone too far,” as viewers later learn), but it turns out the Sooner was making sure the hallway was wheelchair accessible for heavily bandaged Texas.

Texas is becoming familiar with the loss-claiming process and tells viewers where the Big 12 Loss Claims Department is. But the Longhorn representative stopped by to get familiar with where the SEC’s was since they’ll “be spending a lot of time with each other over the next months, years [and] decades.”

Paul Finebaum roasts Texas after historically bad loss to Kansas

Texas suffered a brutal loss to Kansas on Saturday night. The loss marks five in a row for the Longhorns, who began the season 4-1. Now, Texas sits at 4-6 overall and just 2-5 against Big 12 opponents. After the loss, Paul Finebaum questioned the state of the Texas program under Sarkisian, who is in his first year as the team’s head coach.

“There’s nowhere to go when you’re talking about historically bad losses,” Finebaum said of Sarkisian and Texas. “What’s interesting about Texas is they’re leaving the Big 12 in a year or two or three or whenever to go to the SEC, where the hill is much steeper. So you have to start wondering about where this program is. Now remember, Sarkisian took over for Tom Herman and most of this is on Tom Herman.

“I still believe Sarkisian is a good coach, but I would probably have a very difficult time convincing anyone in Austin that. One other thing, a friend of mine, who’s a Vanderbilt graduate, who is winless by the way in the SEC, texted me overnight saying we want Texas now.”

After winning four games in the first five games, Texas now has to win each of its next two games to even gain bowl eligibility. The Longhorns face West Virginia and Kansas State over the final two weeks of the season.
