Tech acts like Texas and A&M are the only two teams they can schedule non conference in the p4

If Tech plays Sorsby, should they be banned from college football? 

They should be banned from post-season competition. But they wouldn’t be if they had an injunction. 

@Bobby Burton maybe we have it wrong. Is it possible they are afraid to actually lose this game?

Cody is literally paying to promote his own tweets. Clown show 

Using the term 'upping the ante' while your qb is fighting gambling allegations is crazy. So thirsty for Texas, they can't even stop and think for a full second. 

I think we should play the game with one stipulation - Tech has to wear interlocking "CC" instead of "TT" on their helmets.

Never thought I could see a team act more Aggish than the Aggies.

What Tech is doing with Sorsby is despicable. Campbell is like a garden gnome on the White House lawn. Texas fans constantly referring to feed lots in west Texas is stupid. Our mascot is a steer. The whole history of the state of Texas is tied to cattle. Austin is not inherently superior to Lubbock.

It's sad that it has come to this. But it has.

Texas Tech is doing anything to be relevant. They're desperate, so desperate in fact that it's embarrassing to watch grown men grovel.

Cody Campbell and Joey McGuire are the faces of desperation.

So butthurt are the Red Raiders about getting left in the Big 12 that their administration at every level, from the board of regents, to the president's office, even to the football coach's office, they're all willing to do anything to get anyone to listen to them and regard them as more relevant than they are.

In a flash of showmanship and false bravado, their football coach today asked for Texas to move its game with Texas State from Austin on Sept. 5, and schedule Texas Tech in Dallas instead.

Yet just minutes later, that very same coach tried to convince reporters that his quarterback who gambled on his own team should not incur significant penalties. "Maybe he should get a few games but not a whole year [I am paraphrasing here]," McGuire told reporters.

A sane man's response to such words? Joey McGuire will say anything to anybody if it helps him win a football game. He's a man who knows no bounds.

McGuire is only following the lead of his president at Texas Tech, who days earlier penned a letter to all students and alumni asking for the same thing.

The whole thing is preposterous.

They know it. You know it. We all know it.

If you gamble on your team, you're toast.

As for Campbell, his thumbprints are all over the latest senate legislation. And that legislation attempts to box in Texas and the SEC. Why is Campbell so worried about what's going on in Austin? Does he feel threatened?

Again, it's the move of desperate people. And McGuire and Campbell are the faces of desperation.

Texas Tech is embarrassing itself over and over again.

Great read, Bobby.

I forgot that TT was basically rejected by a couple of conferences when the b12 was in disarray after we left.  Can't remember who and how many.  Has to be tough on the psyche.

This is a new low for college football. No other team has ever been this pathetic. 

ACU has responded by basically saying Cambell and McGuire were lying. They have no idea what they’re talking about.
