Summary
Wednesday’s Big Ten meeting will consider a conference-wide halt to scheduling Texas Tech across all sports, according to two conference sources.
Nebraska and Georgia already told coaches to stop arranging Texas Tech matchups immediately after a judge let quarterback Brendan Sorsby play despite admitted sports betting, including on his own team at Indiana in 2022.
The NCAA has appealed the injunction, while the Big 12’s executive board is also reviewing the ruling’s broader impact on college athletics.
Texas Tech has no 2026 football games set with Nebraska or Georgia, but future Power 4 series remain on the books with Arkansas in 2030, 2031 and 2034 and Oregon in 2033.
