BIG 12 SQUAD - The Brendan Sorsby Gambling SCANDAL | What this means for Utah
Episode 1395
Thursday, April 30, 2026 • Duration 28:38
Texas Tech faces a major setback as star quarterback Brendan Sorsby is caught in a gambling controversy, casting doubt on his Big 12 future. Will Sorsby suit up this season, or has Tech’s shot at a championship vanished overnight? The squad unpacks how over a thousand wagers—many placed during Sorsby’s stints at Indiana and Cincinnati—sparked a full-blown crisis, igniting questions about competitive integrity, NCAA regulations, and the future of sports betting in college football. The Big 12 Squad debates whether institutional oversight failed, how Texas Tech might fight to keep Sorsby eligible, and if precedent from cases like Iowa State’s Hunter Dekkers offers Tech hope. With questions swirling around legal action, compliance systems, and evolving NCAA rules, the crew asks: Will sports betting become the next normalized aspect of college sports, or are even tougher restrictions inevitable?

REVEALED: Nebraska ISSUES give Utah MAJOR Advantge in Las Vegas Bowl | Morgan Scalley vs Matt Rhule
Episode 1288
Tuesday, December 30, 2025 • Duration 31:57
In this Locked On Utes and Locked On Nebraska crossover, J.T. Wistrcill and Mitch Sherman break down the upcoming Las Vegas Bowl matchup between Utah and Nebraska. The conversation kicks off with each team’s current state—major transitions in coaching staffs, key transfer portal news, and player opt-outs that are set to impact the game.
The hosts dive deep into the strengths and weaknesses of each side, with Utah’s dominant run game facing off against a Nebraska defense that’s struggled to stop the ground attack. On the flip side, can Nebraska’s offense move the ball effectively without star running back Emmett Johnson? And will young quarterback TJ Lateef be ready to handle a complex and aggressive Morgan Scally defense? Special teams, coaching distractions, and bowl game motivation are all on the table as J.T. and Mitch give their honest assessments and score predictions for the matchup. If you’re a Utah or Nebraska fan—or just a college football enthusiast—this episode delivers everything you need to know before kickoff in Vegas.

WEIRD: Kyle Whittingham ADMITS MITSTAKE at Utah before Michigan move | Can Utes still win Bowl Game?
Episode 1287
Monday, December 29, 2025 • Duration 26:06
In this episode of Locked On Utes, J.T. Wistrcill dives deep into Kyle Whittingham’s surprising departure from Utah Football and his new role as the head coach at Michigan. J.T. Wistrcill breaks down Whittingham’s recent comments about retirement, timelines, and his feelings on leaving the Utes after over 20 years. Was his exit really his decision, or was there more happening behind the scenes? The episode also discusses the ripple effects—how will Utah Football adjust, and what does this mean for the staff and the future of the program under Morgan Scalley?
Plus, J.T. Wister talks about BYU’s own shakeup, with defensive coordinator Jay Hill reportedly heading to Michigan as well, and what this means for BYU’s defense going forward. The conversation also covers possible staff changes, transfer portal implications, and which players might be on the move. Finally, the show previews Utah’s bowl game matchup against Nebraska, analyzing the roster changes, potential impact on the game, and why J.T. Wister still has confidence in the Utes despite all the coaching chaos. Whether you’re a Utah, BYU, or Michigan fan, this episode helps make sense of a wild off-season and what’s next for all teams involved.
