Wyoming upsets Texas Tech 35-33 in a double-overtime thriller
WYOMING - 35
TEXAS TECH- 33
Most Wyoming fans were expecting to take a big loss in their opener to the Red Raiders.
Craig Bohl had different plans, as the Cowboys executed nearly perfectly and got the best of the 14.5-point favorite Texas Tech Red Raiders.
Key Stats
The most crucial stat in last night's game that propelled Wyoming to the win was time of possession. UW had 34:02 minutes of possession, while Tech had 25:58. The Red Raiders led the nation in offensive plays per game, and they were looking to break their previous record again in 2023. They did get 80 plays off, two more than Wyoming, but the football stayed out of Tyler Shough’s hands for the most part.
