Over the years, no entity in the Big 12 has done more damage to the Texas Tech football program than Oklahoma running backs. Almost every year, the Sooners have a running back go wild against the Red Raiders and 2018 was no different thanks to Trey Sermon.
The 6-foot, 225-pound sophomore from Georgia carried the ball 26 times for 206 yards and three touchdowns averaging 7.9 yards per rush in Saturday’s 51-46 OU victory in Lubbock. His 30-yard 4th quarter touchdown run sealed the win putting OU up 51-40 with just under three minutes left to play.
It was by far Sermon’s best day as a collegiate with his previous career-high being a 148-yard effort against Baylor in 2017.
