## Resource

Texas Longhorns coach Steve Sarkisian ignited a fiery offseason rivalry with Texas Tech by slamming their non-conference schedule as too easy, arguing that playing tougher opponents—even with losses—should still give teams a shot at the College Football Playoff. He highlighted Texas’s potential to face eight ranked teams, contrasting it with teams that might dodge ranked foes entirely. The debate has fans and even Red Raiders weighing a potential early-season showdown, turning schedule strategy into a heated off-field chess match.
