Summary
Texas Tech’s Joey McGuire is throwing down a fiery challenge to Texas’s Steve Sarkisian, demanding to swap their 2026 Week One matchups and instead face the Longhorns in Lubbock—or even AT&T Stadium if Lubbock’s not an option. McGuire’s bold move includes offering to buy out his team’s contract with Abilene Christian and suggesting Texas do the same with Texas State, all in response to Sarkisian’s controversial comments implying other teams have easier schedules. While Sarkisian didn’t name names, McGuire believes Texas Tech was the target—and he’s ready to prove them wrong on the field. Meanwhile, McGuire also backed QB Brendan Sorsby, who’s battling a gambling addiction and NCAA ineligibility after betting on college games—including his own team—while at Indiana. Sorsby recently completed treatment and filed a lawsuit to play for Texas Tech next season, with a court hearing set for Monday. McGuire says Sorsby’s mistake shouldn’t end his career.
