So ESPN is running this piece about Texas Tech falling without Sorsby and I need to know why nobody is asking the real question. What does Texas Tech's schedule actually look like compared to ours? Because the Red Raiders play in a conference where they dodge Georgia, Alabama, and Tennessee every single year. Texas has to navigate the actual SEC West gauntlet plus Oklahoma and Texas A&M. The Longhorns finished 2025 with a top 10 strength of schedule per SP+ while Texas Tech was sitting outside the top 40. Losing Sorsby hurts them more because their margin for error was already thin. Texas has the depth to absorb QB questions because the schedule demands it. Texas Tech has zero margin. That is the difference nobody is talking about when they rank these teams.
