An undefeated Texas Tech Red Raiders team rolled into Darrell K Royal-Texas Memorial on Saturday and got run over by a physical group of Texas Longhorns that scored early and often in a 70-35 blowout that featured 42 points in the first half by the home team and the most points scored overall since the 2005 Big 12 Championship game.
Texas got off to a fast start with a 38-yard touchdown catch by sophomore running back Bijan Robinson on a 4th and 4 and then scored another touchdown on the second drive. When Texas Texas cut the lead to 14-7 after a blocked punt and touchdown recovery was negated by an offsides penalty, Texas responded with a third touchdown drive and never looked back with 28 second-quarter points.
