Texas Tech beats No. 22 Texas 37-34 after Bijan Robinson's fumble on the first play of OT

Texas Tech beat No. 22 Texas 37-34 in overtime after star Texas running back Bijan Robinson fumbled on the first play of overtime.

Texas forced overtime as time expired in regulation on a field goal by Bert Auburn. But any hope the Longhorns had of coming back to win the game was dashed when Robinson was hit at the line of scrimmage after a handoff and the ball popped free.

The Red Raiders got inside the Texas 10 on the first play of their possession and Trey Wolff kicked the game-winning field goal. Wolff had appeared to kick a game winner with 21 seconds to go in regulation, but Tech’s exceptionally soft defense after the field goal helped Texas get into Auburn’s field goal range.
