RIDICULOUS: Texas Tech & Brendan Sorsby Drama IGNITES College Football as Cody Campell Says...WHAT?! Jun 12, 2026

Show notes

Cody Campbell has put himself at the center of the college football world in recent months. His comments regarding Brendan Sorsby don't make the Red Raiders look good.

On today's episode of Locked On College Football, Spencer McLaughlin discusses the potential actions both sides appear ready to take. The Texas Attorney General is now involved, which could make things messier.

Oregon State's new Athletic Director walks into a new world in Corvallis, and now has a question to face. Should the Beavers join those schools who would boycott Texas Tech and not play the Red Raiders in week 2?

BIG 10 SQUAD: The Big 10 is BOYCOTTING Texas Tech | How this affects college football Jun 11, 2026

Show notes

Big Ten powers rally against Texas Tech over Brendan Sorsby’s controversial eligibility fight. As the Red Raiders attempt to play Sorsby despite NCAA regulations, Big Ten schools refuse all non-conference competition, igniting a heated debate about integrity, NIL chaos, and the role of judges in college football. Is this a Texas Tech scandal, an NCAA crisis, or a sign the sport is spinning out of control? The Locked On Big Ten Squad breaks down why Sorsby’s 9,000 betting violations set off a conference-wide backlash, if conferences—not the NCAA—hold the real power, and how coaches like Joey McGuire are stoking national outrage. Can streamlining rules, stricter enforcement, or a new governing body save the sport? Plus, get bold predictions as FanDuel sets Minnesota’s win total at 6.5—will the Golden Gophers beat expectations this season?
