A decade after the Michael Crabtree game, stakes between Texas and Texas Tech are far different
Ten years ago, Texas Tech and Texas played maybe the most epic game in their 67 meetings.
Texas' No. 1 ranking was on the line against an undefeated Tech team. And with one second to play, quarterback Graham Harrell and receiver Michael Crabtree made history in a Tech win.
Memories still haven't dimmed, even among current Texas players who would have been in elementary school at the time, as Texas gets ready for another visit to Lubbock on Saturday.
"I always think back to the 2008 game and how wild that was and how wild that environment was, watching that on TV," quarterback Sam Ehlinger said.
He also remembers how he felt afterward.
"It was tragic," Ehlinger said.
