Arizona Cardinals quarterback and former Texas great Colt McCoy is having to learn the hard way about what happens when you lose a bet to Texas Tech fans.
McCoy, the former Longhorns star-turned-journeyman QB, seems to have placed a friendly wager with a few of his Cardinals colleagues about the outcome of this past weekend’s Texas/Texas Tech rivalry game.
Arizona head coach Kliff Kingsbury, Cards assistant coach Kenny Bell and wideout Antoine Wesley are all former Red Raiders in some way, shape or form. They had a fun time trolling McCoy after his beloved Longhorns lost this year’s Battle For The Chancellor’s Spurs, 37-34.
Did you know Texas Tech beat Texas on Saturday?

As you can see, McCoy clearly looks thrilled to be decked out in Red Raider apparel for the day’s practice. The stars at night are big and bright deep in the heart of Texas, but Colt’s big eyes are filled with cries, deep in the heart of embarrassment…or something like that.
Seriously, though, McCoy looks like a kid whose parents have forced him to wear a fancy suit to church for Easter Sunday. He’s not likely to make any bets with his Texas Tech coworkers anytime soon, with Texas proving time and time again their inability to close out the big games in recent years.
McCoy can’t be too upset, though. With quarterback Arch Manning signaling his commitment to Texas this year, he might be able to get one over on his Red Raiders pals sooner than later.
