He breaks down whether Texas Football is a real CFP national championship contender, whether Steve Sarkisian is a championship-level coach, why the 24-team College Football Playoff (CFP) keeps gaining momentum, why Indiana fans need a reality check, what Brendan Sorsby\u2019s judge means for Texas Tech, and why college football fans still root for the laundry more than the names in this loaded George Wrighster\u2019s College Football Podcast episode. George also explains why Oregon football had a better offseason than Indiana Football, why the Big Ten coaches unanimously backing a 24-team CFP is bad for the sport, and why the Texas Longhorns are now in the uncomfortable spot where respect is no longer enough and only trophies will do.<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>The biggest takeaway, according to George, is that Texas is no longer trying to prove it belongs. Texas already matters again. The real question now is whether Steve Sarkisian can finish the job and turn playoff relevance into a national championship. George explains why Sark rebuilt Texas from a 5-7 mess into a real SEC contender, why Quinn Ewers changed the way people talked about the Longhorns, and why the Arch Manning era now comes with no more excuses. He also breaks down why replacing Pete Kwiatkowski with Will Muschamp is a huge gamble, why the 24-team playoff would hurt the regular season more than help it, why Indiana fans are acting like new money in college football, and why fans care more about the jerseys winning than any single player\u2019s NIL value. George also digs into Texas Tech football QB Brendan Sorsby\u2019s legal situation, the Oregon Ducks transfer lawsuit, and the bigger truth that college football still has no real unified leadership.<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Chapters:<\/p>\n<p>00:00 Intro: Texas Longhorns, 24-Team CFP, Indiana, Brendan Sorsby, NIL<\/p>\n<p>01:32 Best Thing George Saw Today<\/p>\n<p>02:00 Why The 24-Team Playoff Is Probably Coming<\/p>\n<p>03:08 Why Coaches Love 24 Teams For The Wrong Reasons<\/p>\n<p>03:52 The Biggest Problems With A 24-Team Playoff<\/p>\n<p>06:12 What The 2025 Bracket Would Have Looked Like<\/p>\n<p>07:04 Why Rivalry Week Would Actually Lose Value<\/p>\n<p>09:24 Why College Football Needs One Real Boss<\/p>\n<p>11:39 George Calls Out Indiana Hoosiers Fans And ESPN<\/p>\n<p>12:31 Why Indiana Football Is Acting Like New Money<\/p>\n<p>15:03 Why Oregon Had A Better Offseason Than Indiana<\/p>\n<p>16:27 Brooks Austin Was Right About The Laundry Over The Names<\/p>\n<p>18:44 Why Fans Root For Teams More Than Players<\/p>\n<p>21:32 Brendan Sorsby Gets A Texas Tech Judge<\/p>\n<p>23:02 Tommy Tuberville Running For Governor?<\/p>\n<p>23:21 Oregon football Sues Transfer Dakota Fields<\/p>\n<p>24:31 The Truth About Texas Under Steve Sarkeesian<\/p>\n<p>25:19 How Sark Rebuilt Texas Into A Real Power<\/p>\n<p>26:12 Why Texas football Missing The CFP Changed Everything<\/p>\n<p>27:10 Why Sark\u2019s Defensive Coordinator Move Raises Questions<\/p>\n<p>27:59 Quinn Ewers Changed The Way People Saw Texas<\/p>\n<p>29:29 Why The Arch Manning Era Still Has Questions<\/p>\n<p>30:19 Texas Has No Excuses On Offense In 2026<\/p>\n<p>31:14 Will Muschamp And The Huge Defensive Gamble<\/p>\n<p>32:48 The Pressure On Sark Is About Reputation Now<\/p>\n<p>33:32 Top 10 NFL Games For College Football Fans<\/p>\n<p>34:32 Why Caleb Downs vs The Giants Matters<\/p>\n<p>35:29 Browns vs Titans And The WR Draft Debate<\/p>\n<p>36:24 Raiders vs Jets And The Stanford-Cal Rivalry Twist<\/p>\n<p>37:15 Raiders vs Saints And Arizona State vs Arizona Storylines<\/p>\n<p>38:02 Panthers vs Bears For The Interior Football Sickos<\/p>\n<p>38:56 Browns vs Bucs And Reuben Bain vs Spencer Fano<\/p>\n<p>39:56 Why Every Chiefs Game Matters For College Football Fans<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>#TexasLonghorns IndianaFootball #CFP #TexasFootball #stevesarkisian #ArchManning #QuinnEwers #CollegeFootballPlayoff #OregonDucks #OregonFootball #BrendanSorsby #TexasTechFootball #NIL #CollegeFootball #CFB #GeorgeWrighster #UnafraidShow #WillMuschamp #BigTenFootball #SECFootball #CollegeFootballNews #bigten<\/p>\n<p>See <a href=\"https:\/\/omnystudio.com\/listener\">omnystudio.com\/listener<\/a> for privacy information.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<div class=\"mh-excerpt\"><p>George Wrighster tells the truth about Texas Longhorns football under Steve Sarkisian.
