BIRMINGHAM BOWL STORYLINES
RED RAIDERS ARE BOWLING FOR 38TH TIME n The Birmingham Bowl represents the 38th bowl appearance in Texas Tech history as the Red Raiders have been one of the most frequent teams in the postseason in NCAA history. n Texas Tech enters the postseason ranked 20th among NCAA FBS programs in all-time bowl appearances and third overall among the Big 12 Conference schools. n The Red Raiders, who have won four of their last five bowl games, are 14-22-1 all-time in bowl appearances, which includes a 1-1 record under head coach Kliff Kingsbury. TEXAS TECH RETURNS TO BIRMINGHAM n Texas Tech is returning to Birmingham for the first time since 1989 when the Red Raiders topped No. 20 Duke, 49-21, in what was known then as the All-American Bowl. James Gray earned MVP honors for that game after rushing for a Tech bowl record 280 yards to go along with four touchdowns. n This will be the first time Texas Tech has traveled outside the state of Texas or to the west coast for a bowl since 2007 when the Red Raiders downed Virginia, 31-28, in the Gator Bowl. Tech is participating in its 15th bowl since the start of 2000 alone.

RED RAIDERS LOOK TO BREAK SCHOOL RECORD n If the Red Raiders manage to win the turnover margin against USF, Texas Tech will tie its single-season school record of plus-12 that was most recently set in 1997. Tech enters bowl season at plus-11 in the turnover margin after forcing at least four takeaways in two of the last three games. n Texas Tech will be facing a USF program that has been among the national leaders this year in least turnovers surrendered. The Bulls have lost just 12 turnovers this season, which is tied for 14th nationally for the fewest in the country.

BIRMINGHAM BOWL | 2017 TEXAS TECH FOOTBALL
INSIDE THE USF SERIES TEXAS TECH ALL-TIME VERSUS AAC n The Birmingham Bowl will mark the first ever meeting between Texas Tech (All-Time Records) and South Florida. The Bulls become the 131st different opponent for the Red School Record Cincinnati 0-0-1 Raiders in school history. 0-1 n The Red Raiders have not previously faced an opponent from the state of Flor- East Carolina 12-18-1 ida since Texas Tech routed Florida International, 56-3, to start the 2005 season. Houston Navy 1-0 n Texas Tech is facing a school from the state of Florida in a bowl game for just SMU 33-16 the second time in program history as the Red Raiders previously battled Florida Tulane 2-3 State in the 1977 Tangerine Bowl. The Seminoles outlasted Tech in that game Tulsa 11-12 with a 40-17 victory at Orlando Stadium in Orlando, Florida. n The Red Raiders are 59-50-1 all-time against current members of the American Athletic Conference (AAC). The bulk of those contests have come against a pair of in-state schools in both Houston (31 all-time meetings) and SMU (49 all-time meetings). n Texas Tech faced another AAC member earlier this season as Texas Tech went on the road to top Houston, 27-24, on Sept. 23. The Red Raiders forced five turnovers in the win, while Keke Coutee recorded 161 receiving yards and a touchdown in the win. Houston topped USF, 28-24, on Oct. 28 in Tampa for one of the Bulls’ two losses this season. KINGSBURY KNOWS SUCCESS ON DEC. 23 n Texas Tech recorded one of the most dominating bowl victories in school history the last time the Red Raiders played on Dec. 23 as the Red Raiders, with head coach Kliff Kingsbury at quarterback, trounced Clemson, 55-15, in the Tangerine Bowl. Kingsbury completed 32-of-43 passes in the rout, while throwing for 375 yards and three touchdowns before being replaced early in the third quarter with the lead well in hand. n The bowl victory closed Kingsbury’s collegiate career as he threw for 12,429 yards and 95 touchdowns over his four seasons from 1999-2002, both of which were the most in school history at the time. Kingsbury eclipsed 5,000 yards in the win over Clemson, making him just the third FBS player to top the mark in a season. n Texas Tech’s only other game on Dec. 23 in school history came at the 1977 Tangerine Bowl, which was a 40-17 loss to No. 19 Florida State. RED RAIDERS IN BOWL GAMES n The Red Raiders advanced to a bowl game for the 38th time in school history with its come-from-behind victory over Texas to close the regular season. Texas Tech ranks 20th among NCAA FBS programs and third among Big 12 schools in all-time bowl appearances. This is the 15th bowl appearance for the Red Raiders in the last 18 years. n Texas Tech is 14-22-1 all-time in bowl games with wins in four of its last five contests. Texas Tech head coach Kliff Kingsbury is 1-1 all-time in bowl games with a win over No. 16 Arizona State in 2013 and a loss to No. 22 LSU in 2015. n This will be just Texas Tech’s 16 bowl appearance outside the state of Texas. Of the Red Raiders’ 15 bowl appearances since 2000, only five were located outside the state of Texas (2002 Tangerine, 2004 Holiday, 2006 Insight, 2007 Gator, 2013 Holiday). n Texas Tech and LSU set the Texas Bowl attendance record in the Red Raiders’ last bowl appearance in 2015 as 71,307 fans packed NRG Stadium in Houston. Tech has set attendance records for 11 different bowl games in its history.

STATS DON’T LIE: RED RAIDER DEFENSE IS MUCH-IMPROVED THIS SEASON n Before the season, Kliff Kingsbury said one of the biggest reasons he believed the Red Raider defense would be much improved was due to the fact David Gibbs returned for his third season. Heading into the Birmingham Bowl, Kingsbury has been spot on as the Red Raiders are allowing 11.7 points and roughly 120 yards per game fewer than their totals at the end of the 2016 campaign. n Texas Tech has limited opponents to just 1,851 yards on the ground this season, a significant improvement from 2016 when the Red Raiders surrendered 2,863 rushing yards altogether. The 1,851 rushing yards allowed marks the fewest allowed by Tech through 12 games since 2009 when opponents had recorded 1,500 yards on the ground heading into the bowl game. n West Virginia’s 44 rushing yards earlier this season marked the fewest for an DEFENSIVE IMPROVEMENT UNDER GIBBS opposing offense since the Red Raiders held Northwestern State to just 13 yards (Per Game Averages Under Kliff Kingsbury) on the ground in 2012. It was the fewest rushing yards allowed for a Big 12 op- Year Points Yards Turnovers ponent since former league foe Colorado had just 28 yards in 2010. 2013 30.5 418.5 19 n Opponents are currently averaging 154.2 rushing yards per game this season, 2014 41.2 513.4 15 a drastic improvement on a year ago where Texas Tech was giving up roughly 85 2015 43.6 547.7 25 yards more per game on the ground (238.6 yards per game). The Red Raiders 2016 43.5 554.3 13 31.8 434.0 27 currently rank 53rd nationally in rushing defense up from 116th a year ago. Tech 2017 has not finished in the top 50 of the category since 2009 when the Red Raiders ranked 39th overall. In addition, if the season ended today, Tech’s 154.2 rushing yards allowed per game would be its lowest average since 2009 when the Red Raiders held opponents to just 135.1 yards per game. n Texas Tech surrendered just 289 yards of total offense late in the year against TCU, its fewest against a Big 12 foe since Iowa State had just 189 yards against the Red Raiders in 2012. In addition, Tech allowed just 85 yards through the air, the fewest for a Tech opponent since facing Texas in 2015. n Texas Tech’s improvements on the defensive side of the ball have come with a relatively young unit that is slated to return 10 of its 11 regular starters next season. The lone senior among the regular starters is defensive linemen Mychealon Thomas. RED RAIDERS CONTINUE TO RANK AMONG NATION'S LEADERS FOR TURNOVERS n Texas Tech has made a habit of forcing turnovers as the Red Raiders have created 27 already this year, which includes at least one in all 12 games this season. Dating back to the start of the 2000 season, Texas TURNOVERS GAINED BIG 12 LEADERS Tech has only caused at least one turnover in all 12 regular-season games three (Big 12 Conference Leaders) School (National Rank) TO Gained times previously, which came in 2000, 2008 and 2009. 27 n In the NCAA statistical rankings, Texas Tech enters the Birmingham Bowl Texas Tech (T-6th) 22 ranked sixth in turnovers gained (27) and 10th in turnover margin per game Kansas State (T-26th) Oklahoma State (T-26th) 22 (0.92), which is a drastic improvement from a year ago. Tech concluded the 2016 Texas (T-26th) 22 season ranked 93rd for turnover margin and 112th for turnovers gained. Iowa State (T-40th) 20 n Texas Tech is the Big 12 leader with 27 takeaways, which is five more than Kansas State, Oklahoma State and Texas in a tie for second in the league. n The fact that Texas Tech has already posted 27 takeaways this season is impressive since the Red Raiders totaled just 13 in 2016. n The Red Raiders have only allowed 16 turnovers this season, which moves Texas Tech to plus-11 in the turnover margin. Tech currently ranks tied for 10th nationally in turnover margin and will need to increase that total by one against USF to match the school record of plus-12 that has been set three times previously (1991, 1993, 1997). n Texas Tech has 14 interceptions already this year, which nearly triples its total from all of last season (5). The Red Raiders are tied for 27th nationally and third in the Big 12 with their 14 interceptions this year. n Of Texas Tech’s 14 interceptions this season, two have been returned for touchdowns as Willie Sykes found the end zone against Eastern Washington while DaMarcus Fields went 95 yards against Oklahoma TEXAS TECH FORCED TURNOVERS State. Texas Tech has not previously returned two interceptions for a touchdown (Turnovers Forced In a Season Since 2000) Year Fum INT Turnovers in a season since the 2008 campaign. 14 15 29 n In addition to the interception touchdowns from Fields and Sykes, Texas 2000 2008 11 18 29 Tech has returned two fumbles for touchdowns as Justus Parker went 20 yards 2005 16 12 28 against Kansas while Douglas Coleman III helped seal the Baylor victory with 2003 11 16 27 a 31-yard return. Tech’s four defensive touchdowns this year are the most in a 2017 13 14 27 season since the Red Raiders had six during the 2001 campaign. n Texas Tech is a perfect 5-0 this season when winning the turnover margin. The Red Raiders are just 1-6, though, when Tech finishes tied or behind in turnovers. n After recovering six combined fumbles the final three weeks of the regular season, the Red Raiders lead the Big 12 with 13 so far this season. The Red Raiders currently rank seventh nationally in the category heading into the Birmingham Bowl. n Through 12 games this season, 15 different Red Raiders have contributed in some way to a turnover. n Texas Tech has created four or more turnovers in four different games this season as the Red Raiders had four against Baylor, Kansas as well as Texas and then five at Houston. The five turnovers at Houston were the most for Tech since facing Kansas in 2008.

NIC SHIMONEK SHIMONEK LEADS TEXAS TECH TO WIN OVER TEXAS n Nic Shimonek created a lasting memory in the minds of many Texas Tech fans for his play late in the Texas game as he helped the Red Raiders overcome a 10-point deficit in the fourth quarter en route to a 27-23 victory. Shimonek, coming off the bench for the first time this season, completed 4-of-8 passes for 96 yards and two important touchdowns, the final of which gave the Red Raiders the lead with just under two minutes to play. n Shimonek entered on Texas Tech’s first drive of the fourth quarter and immediately led the Red Raiders on a six-play, 75-yard touchdown drive that ended on a 13-yard strike to T.J. Vasher. ACCURATE STARTS BECOMING COMMON FOR SHIMONEK n Shimonek recorded his third game of starting 10-of-10 on pass attempts against Baylor as he remains one of the most accurate quarterbacks in the country. He also sparked the Red Raiders early in games this season as he also completed his first 10 passes against both Eastern Washington and Kansas. It took Shimonek to his 15th pass to record his first incompletion versus Eastern Washington and then his 11th pass against Kansas. n Shimonek had another solid outing midway through the season against Oklahoma as he completed his first eight passes, resulting in 149 yards and two touchdowns. He later finished 22-of-36 overall for 322 yards and four touchdowns. He has thrown for at least 300 yards in seven games this year. n Among Big 12 signal callers since 2008, Shimonek is one of just three quarterbacks to complete his first 10 passes twice in a season, joining Chase Daniel (Missouri) in 2008 and Landry Jones (Oklahoma) in 2010. SHIMONEK JOINS LIST OF FIFTH-YEAR QUARTERBACKS n Since 2000, Texas Tech’s high-octane offense has been led by three fifth-year seniors who did not make their first career start until their final year, notably B.J. Symons (2003), Sonny Cumbie (2004) and Cody Hodges (2005). n Shimonek was the first Red Raider senior quarterback to start a season opener since Seth Doege led Texas Tech to a 44-6 rout over Northwestern State to kick off the 2012 season. Shimonek is the first senior quarterback to start a game under Kliff Kingsbury. n Shimonek appeared in four games for the Red Raiders in 2016 as the primary backup to Patrick Mahomes II. Over Shimonek’s career, he has served behind four quarterbacks who would later go on to be NFL draft picks - C.J. Beathard (Iowa), Jake Rudock (Iowa), Davis Webb (Texas Tech) and Mahomes. n Shimonek arrived at Texas Tech as a transfer walk-on from Iowa prior to the 2014 season. He redshirted the 2013 season at Iowa before deciding to transfer to Texas Tech. He saw his first career collegiate action during the 2015 season as he was inserted late in both the UTEP and Iowa State games.
SHIMONEK CONTINUES TO RANK AMONG NATION'S LEADERS n Nic Shimonek has been impressive in his lone season leading the Red Raider offense as he has completed 296-of-434 passes (68.2 percent) for 3,547 yards and 30 touchdowns. He has thrown just eight interceptions during that span as well. n Since Texas Tech moved to a passing offense in 2000, Shimonek joins only Graham Harrell (2008) as the only Red Raider quarterbacks to throw for at least 30 touchdowns and just eight interceptions or less over the first 12 games of a season. If the season ended today, Shimonek’s eight interceptions would be the fewest for a starting quarterback during that span. n Among quarterbacks this season, Shimonek joins only Baker Mayfield (Oklahoma) as the only signal callers to throw for at least 30 touchdowns and just eight interceptions. n Shimonek is among the national passing leaders as he ranks fourth in completion percentage (68.2), eighth in completions per game (24.7), 10th in passing touchdowns (30), 11th in passing efficiency (156.0), 12th in passing yards per game (295.6), 14th in passing yards (3,547), 18th in points responsible for (186) and 22nd in points responsible for per game (15.5). n Shimonek’s 543 yards against Arizona State ranked ninth on the Tech single-game passing chart. He was the seventh different Red Raider to pass for over 500 yards in a game all-time. n Shimonek completed his first 14 passes to start the Eastern Washington game, falling just one shy of matching the Texas Tech single-game record of 15 that was set by Seth Doege at New Mexico on Sept. 17, 2011 and Taylor Potts versus Baylor on Oct. 9, 2010. n Shimonek completed 26-of-30 passes against Eastern Washington before leaving the game in the third quarter. Three of his four incompletions came on his final drive leading the Red Raiders as he was 23-of-24 (95.8 percent) up until the 6:30 mark in the third quarter. n Shimonek was nearing the Texas Tech and FBS single-game records for completion percentage up until his final drive midway through the third quarter. His 86.7 completion percentage trailed Doege’s single-game school record of 90.9 percent from the 2011 game at New Mexico. NOT JUST TALENTED ON THE FIELD, EITHER n For as gifted of a quarterback Nic Shimonek is, it’s not his only talent. Early in his Texas Tech career, Shimonek operated his own business, “The Southern Pearl,” which focused on furniture restoration. It was a talent he learned from his mother, Teresa Shimonek, who operated her own furniture restoration business in his hometown of Mildred, Texas. n During the hours he had in between football practice, film work and class, Shimonek and his longtime girlfriend operated “The Southern Pearl” to help offset the cost of being a walk-on quarterback as he was previously a scholarship athlete at Iowa. n Shimonek closed the business prior to the 2016 season when it became clear he would be the primary backup behind Patrick Mahomes II. In interviews this offseason, Shimonek said the call to close the business was so he could “prepare each week as if he was the starter.”

RED RAIDERS ONCE AGAIN AMONG NATION'S LEADERS IN OFFENSE n Texas Tech has continued its tradition of being one of the nation’s top offenses this season as the Red Raiders currently rank 11th nationally in passing offense (326.8 yards per game), 17th in total offense (468.4 yards per game) and 26th in scoring offense (34.3 points per game). n Texas Tech is currently riding a consecutive game scoring streak that spans 257 games dating back to the 1997 season. The streak, which began Oct. 25, 1997, against Texas A&M, ranks eighth nationally and is the second-longest streak in the Big 12 Conference behind TCU. n Texas Tech is the only school in the country to rank among the top 15 teams for CONSECUTIVE GAMES SCORING STREAK (National Rankings) total offense and top 10 for passing offense in every season since 2002. Years n In addition, Texas Tech has ranked in the top 10 for passing offense in each of Games School 371 Florida 1988-present the past 15 seasons (2001-present). 319 TCU 1992-present n Texas Tech has scored 40 or more points regularly under head coach Kliff 295 Virginia Tech 1995-present Kingsbury. The Red Raiders have eclipsed the 40-point mark 23 times under 288 Georgia 1995-present Kingsbury and the 50-point plateau a total of 17 times. 284 Nebraska 1996-present n Since the start of the 2015 season, Texas Tech has boasted one of the most 264 Boise State 1997-present Georgia Tech 1997-present impressive quick-strike offenses. The Red Raiders have had 79 touchdown-scor- 261 TEXAS TECH 1997-present ing drives last under two minutes during that time while 37 lasted less than a 257 253 Oklahoma 1997-present minute. n In 62 games as head coach, Kliff Kingsbury has guided the Red Raider offense to at least 500 yards of total offense 36 times during his tenure. During that span, Kingsbury has led Texas Tech to 700 yards of total offense five times, all of which rank among the top-10 totals in program history. n The success of the Texas Tech offense under Kliff Kingsbury has been impressive knowing the Red Raiders have not had an upperclassman quarterback leading the offense to start any of his first three seasons. Patrick Mahomes II became the first junior or senior quarterback in 2016 to lead the Red Raiders in a season opener since Seth Doege (a senior) earned the nod in 2012. n The Red Raiders head into the 2018 season having scored at least 50 points in 12 of their last 18 games inside Jones AT&T Stadium, easily the highest total among teams nationally during that span. COUTEE AMONG NATION’S TOP WIDE RECEIVERS NCAA LEADERS IN RECEIVING YPG n Keke Coutee has enjoyed a breakout season in 2017 as he ranks among the (NCAA Leaders) nation’s leaders in most receiving categories. The junior ranks ninth in the coun- Player School YPG 118.6 try and fourth among power-five wideouts in receiving yards so far this season James Washington Oklahoma State Anthony Miller Memphis 117.3 as he has recorded 1,242 yards through the air as part of a Texas Tech offense that Anthony Johnson Buffalo 113.0 once again ranks among the nation’s leaders. Steve Ishmael Syracuse 112.3 n Coutee also ranks seventh nationally in receiving yards per game (103.5), Michael Gallup Colorado State 112.1 eighth in receptions per game (6.8) and 20th in receiving touchdowns (9). A.J. Brown Ole Miss 104.3 n After his 168 receiving yards against Texas, Coutee is the only Big 12 player Keke Coutee Texas Tech 103.5 and one of five wideouts nationally to record four or more games with at least 150 receiving yards this season. He has gone over the 100-yard mark eight times TEXAS TECH SINGLE-SEASON LEADERS (All-Time Leaders in Receiving Yards) now in his career and over 150 yards six times. n Among receivers nationally, Coutee joins A.J. Brown (Ole Miss), Anthony Player School YPG 1,962 Miller (Memphis), Anthony Johnson (Buffalo) and Jordan Lasley (UCLA) as the Michael Crabtree 2007 Jace Amaro 2013 1,352 only wideouts with four games of at least 150 receiving yards.

Jarrett Hicks 2004 1,177 n Coutee was named one of 10 semifinalists for the Biletnikoff Award prior to Michael Crabtree 2008 1,165 the TCU game. He is the first Red Raider to be named a semifinalist for the pres- Jonathan Giles 2016 1,158 tigious award since Jace Amaro in 2013. n Coutee was recognized on the Biletnikoff Award watch list prior to the start of the season, marking the 12th time in the last 13 seasons a Red Raider had been a nominee for the nation’s top receiver award.

BIRMINGHAM BOWL | 2017 TEXAS TECH FOOTBALL
ALLEN, BROOKS AMONG TOP LINEBACKER DUOS n Part of Texas Tech’s success defensively this season could be attributed to the play of linebackers Dakota Allen and Jordyn Brooks. The duo, who are playing alongside each other for the first time, are among the defensive leaders this season as Allen has a team-leading 93 tackles while Allen is close behind with 85 of his own. n Brooks will likely surpass his total tackles from a year ago early in the Birmingham Bowl as he led the Red Raiders with 86 tackles in 2016. He was the first Red Raider freshman to lead the team during the Big 12 era (1996-present). n Allen’s return to the Texas Tech defense has been felt this season as his 93 tackles lead the team. Allen also has two sacks, 6.0 tackles for a loss, four pass breakups, two interceptions and three quarterback hurries in his second season as a Red Raider. Allen was Tech’s second-leading tackler in 2015 with 85 on the year before spending his 2016 sophomore season at Eastern Mississippi Community College. n In addition to his role plugging the run game, Allen recorded an interception in each of Texas Tech’s first two road games at Houston and Kansas. Dating back to the start of the 2000 campaign, Allen was the first Texas Tech linebacker or defensive lineman to record two more interceptions through the first five games of a season. PARKER JOINS TEXAS TECH LORE WITH PICK AGAINST TEXAS n Justus Parker joined an elusive club of Texas Tech’s most-memorable plays against Texas as he picked off Sam Ehlinger with just over two minutes remaining and returned it 55 yards deep into Longhorns’ territory. The interception was Parker’s team-leading fourth of the season and possibly the most important one of his young career as it prevented Texas from running out the remainder of the clock. n The Red Raiders capitalized on Parker’s interception as Nic Shimonek found Cameron Batson for a 16-yard touchdown strike just 19 seconds later to give the Red Raiders the go-ahead touchdown. KINGSBURY BECOMES FIRST COACH TO WIN BACK-TO-BACK GAMES IN AUSTIN n Kliff Kingsbury became the first head coach in school history to win back-to-back games in Austin as the Red Raiders closed the regular season with a 27-23 come-from-behind victory over Texas. Kingsbury, who led Tech to a 48-45 win over Texas in 2015, joins Spike Dykes as the only head coaches in program history to have multiple wins over Texas in Austin during their respective careers. JAH’SHAWN JOHNSON - THE TURNOVER MAKER n Jah’Shawn Johnson has almost become the perfect defensive back for David Gibbs’ scheme. The junior covers well, is a reliable tackler and most importantly, causes plenty of turnovers. Over his career, Johnson has now been part of 17 turnovers (5 interceptions, 6 forced fumbles and 6 fumble recoveries), the most among active Red Raiders. n Since the start of 2000, Johnson’s six career forced fumbles rank fourth among Red Raiders, trailing only the totals of Dwayne Slay (8 from 2004-05), Pete Robertson (8 from 2011-15) and Brandon Williams (7 from 2006-08). n Johnson’s five fumble recoveries, meanwhile, are tied with Keyunta Dawson (2003-06) for the most among Red Raiders dating back to the 2000 season. With nearly two full seasons left to play, Johnson needs two more fumble recoveries to tie Zach Thomas’ (1992-95) school record.

HATFIELD CLIMBS ALL-TIME LEADERS IN CAREER FIELD GOALS n Clayton Hatfield returned to the field for just the second time this season against Kansas State as he nailed all five extra-point attempts. Hatfield, who also saw action earlier this season against Arizona State, remains one of the most accurate kickers in college football as his 81.6 career percentage (31-of-38) ranks 20th nationally among active players. n Hatfield connected on his first field goal of the season with a successful 39-yarder against Baylor, which tied him with Brian Hall (1974-77) for 10th all- TEXAS TECH CAREER FG LEADERS time in the Tech career record book. He passed Don Grimes (1971-73) for ninth (Texas Tech All-Time Leaders) Field Goals place against Texas as he connected on a pair of field goals against the Longhorns. Player (Years) 1.

A DUAL-THREAT... PUNTER? Player (Years) n While known for having several of the most dual-threat quarterbacks in 1. Alex Trlica (2004-07) the country in recent years, Texas Tech went out this past offseason and added 2. Ryan Bustin (2012-14) 3. Matt Williams (2008-10) another multi-facet athlete - this time at Punter. Dominic Panazzolo made his 4.

Donnie Carona (2008-11) foot but is able to use his left foot if needed as well. n Panazzolo is the first international player to play at Tech since Patrice Majondo-Mwamba, a native of Belgium, ended his Red Raider career following the 2004 season.

SPECIAL TEAMS PROVIDING BIG MOMENTS n Texas Tech’s special teams units have provided several key plays this season as Ja’Deion High blocked a punt just before halftime against Arizona State while DaMarcus Fields stripped Houston’s Brand McDowell on a punt return in the final moments of Tech’s victory at Houston. The Red Raiders also recovered a fourth quarter onside kick against Oklahoma State, which gave Tech the ball back down by a touchdown. Dominic Panazzolo, meanwhile, added a successful fake punt at West Virginia to give the Red Raiders a first down following a 13-yard run. The fake set up a Texas Tech touchdown later in the drive. n Fields’ forced fumble and recovery marked Texas Tech’s fifth and final takeaway against Houston, giving the Red Raiders the ball back with just 3:22 remaining in the game. Tech was able to run 100 seconds off the clock and force Houston to use its final timeout due to the turnover. n High’s blocked punt, Tech’s first since facing Oklahoma State in 2013, earned him Big 12 Special Teams Player of the Week honors. He also had a tackle versus the Sun Devils as part of his role on kickoff duty. The blocked punt set up a Tech touchdown just before the half, giving the Red Raiders a 35-17 lead over the Sun Devils at the break. n Panazzolo had his best game as a Red Raider against Iowa State as he compiled a season-high 49.7 average over three punts, one of which was a booming 72-yarder. He was the first Red Raider since Robert Hall in 1993 to record a punt of 70 yards or longer in a game. In addition, Panazzolo did not allow Iowa State to return any of his three punts on the afternoon. n The Red Raiders added another strong play on special teams against Baylor as Keke Coutee took the opening kickoff 92 yards for a touchdown. It marked the first time a Red Raider had taken the opening kickoff back for a touchdown since 1973 when Lawrence Williams went 95 yards to the end zone against New Mexico. Coutee is jus the third Big 12 player to ever score on the opening kickoff as he joins Oklahoma State’s Justin Gilbert (2013 vs. Kansas) and Missouri’s Gahn McGaffie (2010 vs. Oklahoma). TEXAS TECH CREATES LUKE GONSIOROSKI MEMORIAL SCHOLARSHIP n Texas Tech Athletics announced prior to the Oklahoma State game the creation of an endowed scholarship to honor the late Luke Gonsioroski. The scholarship will be presented annually to the walk-on who best embodies the character and steadfastness that Gonsioroski displayed on a daily basis. Gonsioroski, a native of Baker, Montana, passed away on Aug. 7 of this year following a courageous battle with cancer. He was committed to join the Red Raider football program this season as a quarterback before his cancer returned prior to his enrollment at the university this summer. His story and his battle with cancer was inspiring to many as Gonsioroski underwent four rounds of chemotherapy before having a large tumor removed from his chest just months prior to his senior year. He recovered in time to help lead Baker to a 6-3 record in 2016 and an appearance in the Class B state playoffs. BACK-TO-BACK LOSING SEASONS ARE RARE AT TEXAS TECH n Kliff Kingsbury would be among the first people to say the 2016 season did not meet his expectations or those of the Red Raider fan base. The Red Raiders lost four games by eight points or less en route to finishing 5-7 overall and 3-6 in Big 12 play. n The good news, though, is that back-to-back losing seasons at Texas Tech are rare. Very rare, in fact. The last time the Red Raiders compiled consecutive losing REBOUNDING AFTER LOSING SEASONS (Texas Tech Record in Years After a sub-.500 Season) seasons came during the 1984-85 campaigns. Year Record Year Record n Since 1985, the last six times Texas Tech went through a losing season, the 2016 5-7 2017 -Red Raiders bounced back the following year with a record of .500 or better. 2014 4-8 2015 7-6 Even more impressive, in five of those seasons, the Red Raiders rebounded with 2011 5-7 2012 8-5 a postseason bowl berth (2015 AdvoCare Texas Bowl; 2012 Meinecke Texas Bowl; 1992 5-6 1993 6-6 1993 John Hancock Bowl; 1989 All-American Bowl; 1986 Independence Bowl). 1990 4-7 1991 6-5 n Texas Tech has been among the most consistent programs in the country over 1988 5-6 1989 9-3 the past two decades as the Red Raiders have recorded just three losing seasons 1985 4-7 1986 7-6 since 1993. Among power-five programs, Texas Tech ranks among the elite in non-losing seasons, trailing only Florida State (0), USC (1), Ohio State (1) and Florida (1). The Red Raiders are tied with the likes of Nebraska, Texas A&M, Georgia, Michigan, Miami, Oklahoma, Penn State, Clemson and BYU. RED RAIDERS NAME FIVE CAPTAINS FOR 2017 n Texas Tech named five team captains for the 2017 season following a team vote at the conclusion of preseason practices as the Red Raiders selected senior wide receivers Cameron Batson and Dylan Cantrell as well as senior quarterback Nic Shimonek, junior linebacker Dakota Allen and junior defensive back Jah’Shawn Johnson. n This is the second time in Kliff Kingsbury’s tenure where the Red Raiders have utilized five captains. The other year came in 2015 when Texas Tech closed the regular season at 7-5 overall and was selected for the AdvoCare V100 Texas Bowl.

RED RAIDERS TO HONOR SPIKE DYKES DURING 2017 SEASON n This past spring, Texas Tech lost a legend with the passing of Spike Dykes on April 10. Dykes passed away in his home at Horeshoe Bay near Austin at the age of 79. To celebrate his memory, Texas Tech will wear a “I Like Spike” helmet sticker during every game of the 2017 season. The phrase “I Like Spike” was a popular saying among Tech fans during his tenure as head coach from 1986-99. The helmet sticker will also remain on the front page of Texas Tech’s game notes each week. KINGSBURY REVAMPS RED RAIDER ROSTER IN OFFSEASON n Following a disappointing 2016 season, Kliff Kingsbury and his staff revamped the Red Raider roster, bringing in 44 newcomers since last January alone. Of that group, 13 are junior-college transfers who are expected to impact the Red Raiders right away along with five Division-I transfers, all of which are eligible immediately. n Kingsbury and his staff focused strongly on experienced defensive backs with the addition of four junior college signees in Octavious Morgan (Butler C.C.), Vaughnte Dorsey (Mississippi Gulf Coast C.C.), Thomas Leggett (Allan Hancock College) and Jaylon Lane (Independence C.C.) as well as LSU transfer Abraham Wallace and TEXAS TECH CLASS OF NEWCOMERS Washington grad transfer Trevor Walker.

NATION’S TOP OFFENSE RETURNS BULK OF PRODUCTION FROM 2016 n Despite the loss of quarterback Patrick Mahomes II, Texas Tech still returns the bulk of its 2016 offense that led the country in both total offense and passing offense while also averaging over 40 points per game. The Red Raiders return seven starters from that unit in offensive linemen Terence Steele, Tony Morales, Madison Akamnonu, running back Justin Stockton and wide receivers Cameron Batson, Dylan Cantrell and Derrick Willies. n The Red Raiders ranked fifth nationally in scoring offense as well after averaging 43.7 points per game. It was the second-straight season where Texas Tech has averaged at least 40 points per game. Tech scored 40 or more points in seven of 12 games and at least 50 points in six of those contests. n The trio of senior Justin Stockton, junior Demarcus Felton and sophomore Da’Leon Ward accounted for 75 percent of Texas Tech’s rushing yards a year ago after totaling 936 yards on the ground as a group. Ward boasted 428 rushing yards and three touchdowns, becoming the first Red Raider true freshman to lead the team in rushing since Shaud Williams in 1999. Felton, meanwhile, added 354 yards and three touchdowns while Stockton chipped in 178 rushing yards and a touchdown to go along with 220 yards and a pair of touchdowns through the air. n Along the offensive line, Texas Tech returns four of its mainstays from a year ago in seventh-year senior Tony Morales as well as junior Paul Stawarz and sophomores Madison Akamnonu and Terence Steele. Morales and Steele started in all 12 games a year ago while Stawarz and Akamnonu were in the starting rotation for eight and seven games, respectively. Sophomore Bailey Smith (one start) and Travis Bruffy also saw significant time as true freshmen. VETERAN ON CAMPUS n There likely won’t be an older student-athlete in college football this season than offensive lineman Tony Morales, who is entering his seventh season as a Red Raider. Morales arrived at Texas Tech in 2011 but unfortunately suffered through season-ending injuries in each of the next four years. He saw his first collegiate action in 2015 where he appeared in 10 games, including four starts, at right guard. He moved to center prior to the 2016 season and proceeded to start in all 12 games. n Morales was granted an extension to his eligibility towards the end of the 2016 campaign, giving him a seventh season as a member of the Red Raider football program. Morales is eligible to apply for another extension later this season. DEEP WIDE RECEIVER GROUP EXPECTED TO LEAD OFFENSE n Texas Tech is expected to have one of its deepest wide receiver groups in school history as the Red Raiders return four of its most experienced wideouts in seniors Cameron Batson, Dylan Cantrell and Derrick Willies as well as junior Keke Coutee. In addition, Tech also brings back several other veterans in senior Ja’Deion High and sophomore Quan Shorts. n In all, Texas Tech returns 57 percent of its receiving yards from a year ago as well as 64 percent of its receiving touchdowns. n Coutee was the Red Raiders’ top receiver once Big 12 play began last season as the junior recorded all but 29 of his 890 receiving yards against league foes. He ended the season ranked second in the Big 12 after averaging 95.7 yards per game during conference action. Coutee put together four 100-yard performances over the course of Big 12 play, which was capped by his 221-yard performance in the season finale against Baylor. n According to research by Pro Football Focus, Coutee averaged 3.10 yards per route run which was the highest mark among power five conference receivers with at least 60 targets. He topped two of the conference’s top wideouts in Oklahoma State’s James Washington (2.92) and Iowa State’s Allan Lazard (2.60). Coutee is a preseason candidate for the Biletnikoff Award, which is presented annually to the nation’s top wide receiver. n Batson ranked second on the team with 61 receptions on the year as he totaled 644 yards and eight touchdowns. According to Pro Football Focus, he was one of the most dependable wideouts in the Big 12, dropping only 1.61 percent of his targets which is the lowest among returning wide receivers with at least 40 receptions. n Batson and Coutee are both expected to play a large roles on Texas Tech’s special teams units. Coutee began to return kicks late in the year, averaging 16.2 yards a return on six attempts. Batson, meanwhile, served as Tech’s primary punt returner where he averaged 9.2 yards a return, the highest clip for a Red Raider since Austin Zouzalik in 2012. n Willies showed glimpses of being a consistent big-play threat a year ago despite battling injuries for most of the year. He finished with 18 catches for 288 yards and a pair of touchdowns. Willies was named to the Senior Bowl watch list prior to the season as he is one of 400-plus players across the country nominated for a potential roster spot. SOPHOMORE CLASS PICKED UP PLENTY OF EXPERIENCE IN 2016 n Texas Tech relied heavily on several true freshmen in 2016, a move that should pay dividends this season. In all, 12 true freshmen saw playing time last season led by linebacker Jordyn Brooks and offensive lineman Travis Bruffy who played in all 12 games. n According to research by Pro Football Focus, Texas Tech led the country with 4,429 snaps played by true freshmen in 2016. The next three schools behind the 2016 TOTAL SNAPS BY TRUE FRESHMEN (National Leaders) Red Raiders were all Big 12 members in Kansas (3,921), Kansas State (3,670) and School Total Snaps Texas (3,643). Texas Tech 4,429 n Jordyn Brooks led the Red Raiders with 86 tackles (61 solo) in 2016, marking Kansas 3,921 the first time a Tech freshman has topped the team in tackles during the Big 12 Kansas State 3,670 era (1996-present). Brooks ranked 40th nationally and tied for fifth among fresh- Texas 3,643 3,427 men in solo tackles per game (5.1) a year ago. He led all Big 12 freshmen in both Miami (Fla.) Ole Miss 3,111 total tackles and tackles per game. Alabama 3,010 n In addition to both Brooks and Bruffy, the following now sophomores also saw South Carolina 2,950 action as true freshmen in 2016: Douglas Coleman III (DB), Kevin Moore (DB), Florida 2,875 Johnathan Picone (LB), Desmon Smith (DB), Brayden Stringer (LB), Joseph Georgia 2,789 Wallace (DL), Da’Leon Ward (RB) and Antoine Wesley ( WR). T.J. Vasher (WR) Source: Pro Football Focus played in Tech’s season opener against Stephen F. Austin but a season-ending injury cut his season short. He was granted a medical redshirt year following the season, giving him four years of eligibility remaining. @TexasTechFB

JONES AT&T STADIUM - HOME OF THE RED RAIDERS
“
”
The best home field advantage in all of college football.
- DAVE CURTIS, THE SPORTING NEWS (2010)
NEW TURF AMONG NEW ADDITIONS n Texas Tech replaced its playing surface during the offseason, installing a new FieldTurf model prior to spring practice. There are three significant changes to the new surface, most notably the size of the Double T at midfield. The Double T was enlarged to cover the entire distance between the hash marks. The font for “Red Raiders” and “Texas Tech” spelled out in each endzone is also new and it matches the look the Red Raiders will unveil on each uniform this season. In addition, there is no longer a black box surrounding “Jones AT&T Stadium” at the 25-yard line on each side of the field. n Other updates to the stadium came via new goalposts that are motorized and will allow athletics staff to quickly lower both posts at the conclusion of each game. Texas Tech also renovated all of its concessions throughout the Jones AT&T Stadium concourse. n The playing surface is one of several upgrades to the stadium in recent years as Texas Tech opened the North Endzone Club area prior to the 2016 campaign. Tech also added a state-of-theart video board on the north endzone before the 2013 season, which remains one of the largest high-definition video boards in the country. n Overall, since 2003, Texas Tech has invested over $150 million during the past 10-plus years with four major renovations, making Jones AT&T Stadium one of the best on-campus football facilities in the country. RED RAIDERS LIGHT UP JONES AT&T STADIUM SCOREBOARD n The Red Raider offense has benefited from playing at home in recent years as Texas Tech is averaging nearly 50 points per game inside Jones AT&T Stadium the past two-plus seasons. n Texas Tech has scored 50 or more points in 12 of its last 18 games inside Jones AT&T Stadium heading into the 2018 season. The Red Raiders scored at least 50 points in all six homes games in 2015, marking the first time in school history where Tech has hit the 50-point mark in every game on the home schedule.

SPORTS PERFORMANCE CENTER ALREADY COMING IN HANDY n Texas Tech’s new $48 million Sports Performance Center has already been vital this season as the Red Raiders have had several practices already moved indoors due to rain. A year ago, Tech had six or seven practices either severely delayed or canceled altogether following thunderstorms in the Lubbock area. n The Sports Performance Center is still under construction with completion expected in the upcoming weeks. The project will be completed in October before the offical ribbon cutting on Oct. 20 prior to the Iowa State game. n The Sports Performance Center houses a 100-yard indoor football field that is within walking distrance of the outdoor practice fields at the Football Training Facility. The Red Raiders now start every practice now in the facility before moving outdoors. n In addition to supporting the Red Raider football program, the Sports Performance Center will also be home to Texas Tech’s nationally-ranked track and field program. The facility will house a 200-meter bank track, which will allow Tech to host several of the nation’s top collegiate and high school meets each season.

The Red Raiders ranked among the nation’s leaders during the 2015 campaign as well, finishing second in total offense, scoring offense as well as passing offense. Tech concluded the year averaging a school-record 45.1 points per game after scoring at least 25 points in all 13 games.

n Nic Shimonek finished 26-of-30 for 384 yards and three touchdowns in his first career start. The senior
left the game late in the third quarter with the Red Raiders leading handily.
LUBBOCK, Texas (AP) - Nic Shimonek threw for 384 yards and three touchdowns in his first career start and Texas Tech opened the 2017 season with a 56-10 win over Eastern Washington on Saturday. Shimonek completed his first 14 passes and finished 26-of-30 as the Red Raiders pulled away with three touchdowns each in the second and third quarters, capped by Willie Sykes’ 33-yard interception return for a 49-10 lead the first play after Justin Stockton’s second TD run. Gage Gubrud threw for 207 yards and a touchdown for Eastern Washington, which upset Washington State in last year’s opener on the way to the semifinals of the FCS playoffs. Texas Tech led 7-3 when Shimonek threw the first of three second-quarter touchdowns, a 75-yarder to Derrick Willies. Keke Coutee caught the other two from 68 and 17 yards, finishing with 99 yards receiving. Willies had 126 yards receiving. Head coach Kliff Kingsbury improved to 5-0 in openers at his alma mater. Aaron Best lost his coaching debut at his alma mater to the same school that beat former coach Beau Baldwin 49-24 in his debut in 2008. Best went to the same high school as Baldwin in Tacoma, Washington, and was Baldwin’s offensive line coach all nine seasons at EWU before Baldwin left to become offensive coordinator at California. Tech backup McLane Carter threw a 22-yard pass to Quan Shorts to complete the scoring early in the fourth quarter as the Red Raiders outgained Eastern Washington 626-301. Terence Grady had 93 yards receiving and EWU’s only touchdown, a 22-yarder in the second quarter. THE TAKEAWAY Texas Tech: The Red Raiders didn’t get off to the kind of hot start Kingsbury would have preferred, but EWU hasn’t been a pushover against the higher division. The Eagles have three FBS wins in the past five seasons. POSTGAME NOTES The win marked the 15th-consecutive year Texas Tech has opened its season with a win, which is now the tied for the second-longest active streak in the FBS after Florida lost to Michigan. Tech trails Ohio State’s FBS-leading 17-consecutive years of opening with a win after the Buckeyes defeated Indiana to open their season. Alabama has also won 16-straight season openers after topping No. 3 Florida State. n With its 56 points, Texas Tech Athletics will donate $5,600 to Hurricane Harvey relief efforts as part of its #ScoreOnHarvey campaign. Texas Tech head coach Kliff Kingsbury will match that amount in a donation of his own for a total $11,200. Several Texas Tech Athletics staff members have also committed donations based on today’s game as well. n Texas Tech forced three turnovers in the win, while failing to give up one of its own. The Red Raiders are now 10-3 under Kliff Kingsbury when leading the turnover battle and have forced at least two turnovers in back-to-back games for the first time since the UTEP and Arkansas games on Sept. 12 and Sept. 19, 2015. Tech forced Baylor into three fumbles in the final game of last season. n Eastern Washington’s 10 points in today’s game marked the fewest allowed by the Red Raiders since Texas Tech topped Texas State, 33-7, on Sept. 21, 2013. n Nic Shimonek was down-right accurate in his first career start as Texas Tech’s signal caller as he completed his first 14 passes to start the game. His streak was only one completion shy of tying the Texas Tech single-game record fo 15 that was set by Seth Doege at New Mexico on Sept. 17, 2011 and Taylor Potts versus Baylor on Oct. 9, 2010. n Jah’Shawn Johnson’s forced fumble on Eastern Washington’s first drive marked the sixth already in his career. He finished with a share of the team high with seven tackles. n

n Mychealon Thomas recovered a fumble while adding a career-high four tackles in Texas Tech’s 52-45
victory over Arizona State.
LUBBOCK, Texas (AP) - Nic Shimonek threw for six touchdowns, receiver Dylan Cantrell had the go-ahead score on a 3-yard run in the final two minutes and Texas Tech beat Arizona State 52-45 in another high-scoring duel Saturday night. Manny Wilkins’ deep pass on fourth-and-30 was overthrown on the final Arizona State possession as the Sun Devils (1-2) fell short after rallying from 18 points down at halftime and 14 behind late in the third quarter. The Red Raiders started 2-0 for the fourth time in five seasons under coach Kliff Kingsbury. Cantrell already had two touchdown catches, a one-armed grab for a first down and a leaping catch on the 90-yard go-ahead drive when he took a handoff from Shimonek on a sweep and stretched the ball over the goal line just inside the pylon with 1:55 remaining. Shimonek, who finished with 543 yards passing, had five scores at halftime after a one-hour weather delay before kickoff. Cantrell had a career-high 160 yards receiving and Keke Coutee set career marks with 12 catches for 186 yards. Coutee had one score. Wilkins threw for 326 yards and three touchdowns. N’Keal Harry had 13 catches for 148 yards and a tying 21-yard touchdown early in the fourth quarter. Ballage, who finished with 56 yards in 16 carries, got the ASU rally going with a 1-yard plunge early in the second half. Shimonek was 37 of 50 and has nine touchdowns with no interceptions in 80 attempts in the first two starts of his career. POSTGAME NOTES Texas Tech won its second game in three seasons against a Power 5 non-conference opponent. The Red Raiders have defeated 10 Power 5 opponents in non-conference action since 2004. n Nic Shimonek was once again accurate in his second career start leading the Red Raiders as he finished 37-of-50 for a career-high 543 yards and six touchdowns. Through two games this season, Shimonek is completing 78.8 percent of his passes with nine touchdowns and zero interceptions. n Shimonek’s 543 passing yards ranks ninth all-time on the Texas Tech single-game chart. It marked the most passing yards by a Red Raider since Patrick Mahomes III threw for 586 yards during the Baylor game last season. n Shimonek is the seventh quarterback in program history to throw for 500-plus yards in a game. It marked the 16th time in school history that a Texas Tech quarterback has reached the 500-yard plateau. n Texas Tech set up its final touchdown of the first half via a Ja’Deion High blocked punt with just over a minute remaining. It marked Tech’s first blocked punt since current Detroit Lions standout Kerry Hyder got his hand on an Oklahoma State punt in 2013. n Keke Coutee and Dylan Cantrell both went over 100 receiving yards in tonight’s win, marking the first time since the 2016 season finale against Baylor that the Red Raiders had multiple wideouts reach the 100-yard mark. Ironically, both Coutee and Cantrell were those two receivers in last year’s meeting with Baylor. n Keke Coutee found the endzone for the third time already this season as he scampered in on a 12-yard touchdown pass from Nic Shimonek with 4:25 remaining in the first quarter. Coutee put together another outstanding performance for the Red Raiders, totaling a career-best 186 yards through the air on a career-high 12 catches. He now has four 100-yard receiving performances during his career. n Jordyn Brooks led the Red Raider defense with 13 tackles in tonight’s win. It was the fourth time in Brooks’ career where he has totaled 10 or more tackles in a game. n

n Dakota Allen led the Red Raiders with 12 tackles and added an interception in Texas Tech’s 27-24 victory
over Houston, which snapped the Cougars’ 16-game home winning streak.
LUBBOCK, Texas (AP) - Nic Shimonek passed for 321 yards and two scores and Texas Tech defeated Houston 27-24 on Saturday, snapping the Cougars’ 16-game home winning streak. Shimonek’s favorite target was Keke Coutee, who made 11 catches for 161 yards and a score, which came on a 77-yard pass in the third quarter. Houston (2-1) owned the nation’s longest active home winning streak entering Saturday. The last home loss for Houston was Nov. 8, 2014, against Tulane, 31-24. This is the first win for the Red Raiders (3-0) against the Cougars in Houston since a 38-26 Southwest Conference game in the Astrodome on Nov. 25, 1995. The loss snaps a seven-game winning streak for the Cougars against teams from Power 5 conferences. The last loss to Vanderbilt 41-24 in the BBVA Compass Bowl on Jan. 4, 2014. Houston quarterback Kyle Allen struggled, finishing 24 of 39 for 217 yards with one touchdown and two interceptions. Kyle Postma replaced Allen midway through the fourth quarter. Postma was 8 of 13 for 100 yards and a score. Postma also had four carries for 52 yards, including a nine-yard touchdown run. THE TAKEAWAY Texas Tech: The Red Raiders have started 3-0 for the fifth time in the last seven seasons and are 13-2 against non-conference opponents under Kliff Kingsbury. Houston: The Cougars offense struggled mightily against Texas Tech. Allen has turned the ball over six times in his first three games as the Cougars’ starting quarterback. Allen has thrown four interceptions and fumbled twice. POSTGAME NOTES Texas Tech is the first power-five conference opponent to defeat Houston since Vanderbilt topped the Cougars in the BBVA Compass Bowl to close the 2013 season. n Texas Tech defensive coordinator David Gibbs returned to Houston with one of his unit’s best performances of his tenure. The Red Raiders held Houston to 427 yards of total offense (133 in the first half) while forcing five turnovers in today’s win. Gibbs was previously Houston’s defensive coordinator and eventually interim head coach from 2013-14 before arriving at Tech prior to the 2015 season. n Texas Tech’s five turnovers marked its most since the Red Raiders forced five at Kansas in 2008. n Texas Tech forced three turnovers alone in the opening half. The Red Raiders had not previously forced three turnovers in a half since recording three in the second half of the 2015 season opener against Sam Houston State. n Keke Coutee, the nation’s leader in receiving yards per game heading into today, had another big game for the high-octane Red Raider offense as he caught 11 passes for 161 yards. It marked the fifth 100-yard game of his career (second this season) and the third time he has totaled 150 or more yards through the air. n Justin Stockton became the first Red Raider this season to rush for over 100 yards as he finished with 102 yards on the ground off just 10 carries. His total was boosted by a 84-yard run up the middle midway through the fourth quarter that marked the longest play from scrimmage for a Red Raider this season. He is the first Red Raider to rush for 100 yards in a game since Demarcus Felton against Louisiana Tech last season. n Dakota Allen’s interception on Houston’s opening drive of the game marked the third of his career and first since the 2015 AdvoCare V100 Texas Bowl against LSU. Allen led the Red Raiders with 12 tackles, which marked his second-straight game in double digits and the sixth time in his career where he has done so. n Tony Jones recovered a pair of fumbles in the win, marking the first time a Red Raider recovered two fumbles since Sylvester Brinkley did so against Kansas State in 2005. n

n DaMarcus Fields put the Red Raiders on the board in the first quarter with a 95-yard interception re-
turned for a touchdown. He was named the Big 12 Newcomer of the Week the following Monday.
LUBBOCK, Texas (AP) - Quarterback Mason Rudolph ran 16 yards for the go-ahead touchdown in the final two minutes and No. 15 Oklahoma State held off a valiant Texas Tech effort, 41-34, on Saturday night. Rudolph’s second rushing score came after three TD tosses as the Cowboys (4-1, 1-1 Big 12) bounced back from a home loss to ninth-ranked TCU and avoided a second early conference loss in their pursuit of the revived Big 12 championship game. Tech (3-1, 0-1 Big 12) trailed 34-20 entering the fourth quarter, but one-yard touchdown plunges from Justin Stockton and Desmond Nisby tied the game with 9:56 to go. From there, Oklahoma State’s Matt Ammendola clanked an 18-yard field goal off the right upright with 5:30 remaining, keeping the game at a 34-34 deadlock. However, Tech was not able to take advantage, being forced to punt two minutes later. Tech wide receiver Keke Coutee, who entered the weekend in the nation’s top five in a variety of receiving categories, compiled 114 all-purpose yards before leaving the game due to injury in the third quarter. The Red Raiders got the ball to midfield with less than a minute to go, but stalled out there, turning the ball over on downs. DaMarcus Fields returned an interception 95 yards for Texas Tech’s first points, and Justin Stockton and Desmond Nisby had consecutive 1-yard runs to get the Red Raiders even at 34. Fields’ play was Tech’s longest interception return for a touchdown since 1962. Justice Hill had a career-high 164 yards rushing for the Cowboys along with a 5-yard scoring catch. James Washington had nine catches for 127 yards and a score. Rudolph was 27 of 38 for 376 yards, with first-half TD tosses to Washington, Hill and Jalen McCleskey. His first rushing score was an 8-yarder on the opening drive of the third quarter. Shimonek was 29 of 46 for 330 yards with one touchdown and just his second interception of the season. THE TAKEAWAY Texas Tech: The Red Raiders twice settled for field goals with first downs inside the Oklahoma State 5. Those eight lost points loomed large in a seven-point loss. POSTGAME NOTES DaMarcus Fields’ 95 interception return for a touchdown marked Texas Tech’s second pick-six already this season. Dating back to the start of the 2000 season, Texas Tech had not previously returned two interceptions for a touchdown over its first four games. The two interceptions for a touchdown mark Texas Tech’s most in a season since the Red Raiders had three in 2008. n Field’s interception return marked the second-longest defensive play for Texas Tech under head coach Kliff Kingsbury. Douglas Coleman III previously returned a fumble 100 yards to the endzone in the 2016 meeting between the two in-state rivals. n The interception was Texas Tech’s 10th turnover forced this season. The Red Raiders reached the 10-turnover mark during the Baylor game on Nov. 25, 2016 last season. n Justin Stockton’s six receptions tonight marked a new career high, snapping his previous mark of five that was most recently set just a few weeks ago against Arizona State. He closed the night with a team-leading seven receptions for 52 yards. Stockton added a 1-yard touchdown rush at the 14:53 mark of the fourth quarter. He finished with a team-high 12 carries for 28 yards. n Tony Jones got in the backfield for his second sack of the season with roughly 10:39 remaining in the third quarter. He had another solid game for the Red Raider defense, finishing with seven tackles highlighted by five solo stops and his one sack. Jones has two sacks this season. n Texas Tech’s 384 yards of total offense marked a season low. The Red Raiders had previously recorded at least 500 yards of total offense in each of their previous three games this season. n

Nic Shimonek still threw for 233 yards and two scores, and Justus Parker picked a pass and returned his own forced fumble for a score, as the Red Raiders (4-1, 1-1 Big 12) beat Kansas for the 11th straight time. Texas Tech has never lost to the Jayhawks (1-4, 0-2) in 10 tries in Lawrence. Kansas trailed 35-7 midway through the second quarter before slowly clawing its way back, spurred on by a change in quarterback from Peyton Bender to Carter Stanley. The two had shared snaps early in the game, but Bender was ineffective and Stanley’s moxie seemed to energize the offense. But after getting within 35-19 on Taylor Martin’s touchdown run in late in the third quarter, and forcing a quick fumble, the Jayhawks gave the momentum right back. Stanley’s pass was tipped and picked, and Shimonek hit Keke Coutee with a quick touchdown pass to restore order. Coutee had eight catches for 87 yards, while Quan Shorts and Derrick Willies also had TD grabs. Stanley finished with 110 yards passing, while Bender -- who had beaten out last year’s starter in fall camp -- was 12 of 24 for 146 yards with a touchdown and an interception. The Red Raiders’ win streak against Kansas is their longest against a Big 12 foe, and very few of the meetings have been close. Their average margin of victory is more than 21 points. THE TAKEAWAY Texas Tech: Texas Tech has always been known for offense, but coach Kliff Kingsbury showed off the balanced of his Red Raiders this year. Nisby finished with 93 yards rushing. Tre King added 40 and Texas Tech piled up 313 yards while averaging 6 per carry. It was the most rushing yards in a game for the Red Raiders since Sept. 15, 2012, against New Mexico (325). Kansas: Kansas couldn’t overcome a litany of mistakes: The Jayhawks were twice stuffed on fourth-and-1 in the first quarter, their two picks came at inopportune times, their defense missed a slew of tackles and running back Khalil Herbert -- who had 291 yards rushing two weeks ago against West Virginia -- only had 10 carries for 65 yards before departing with an injury in the third quarter. POSTGAME NOTES Texas Tech’s 65 points marked its most ever against Kansas, breaking the previous mark of 63 that was set in 2008. n Texas Tech pounded the ground today to a tune of 313 rushing yards, its most in a game since recording 325 against New Mexico in 2012. Texas Tech’s five rushing touchdowns were its most since recording the same total against Texas in 2015. n Texas Tech once again won the turnover margin as the Red Raiders had two interceptions and two fumble recoveries while Kansas forced a fumble and an interception. Tech now has 14 takeaways this season with only five turnovers of its own for a plus-9 margin that continues to rank among the nation’s leaders. n Desmond Nisby and Justin Stockton paced the Red Raiders on the ground in the win as Nisby rushed for four rushing touchdowns while Stockton carried 15 times for a career-high 161 yards. Nisby finished with career highs of his own with 93 yards and four touchdowns on the ground. n Nisby found the endzone three times on the ground in the first half alone, the most for a Red Raider in a half since Baron Batch similarly had three in the 2009 meeting against Kansas. It marked the first time a Red Raider had four or more touchdowns in a game since DeAndre Washington had four against No. 3 TCU in 2015. n

Milan Puskar Stadium | Morgantown, W.Va. | 11 a.m. | ESPNU | Attendance: 60,928
n T.J. Vasher became the first Red Raider to haul in multiple touchdown passes of 50 yards or longer dating
back to the start of the 2000 season.
MORGANTOWN, W.Va. (AP) -- Will Grier threw four of his five touchdown passes in the second half and West Virginia overcame an 18-point deficit in the fourth quarter to beat No. 24 Texas Tech 46-35 on Saturday. West Virginia (4-2, 2-1) beat a ranked opponent for the first time in 10 tries on Saturday. Nic Shimonek threw four first-half TD passes for Texas Tech, but the Red Raiders (4-2, 1-2) couldn’t overcome a Mountaineer comeback late. Shimonek finished 24-of-39 with 323 yards. T.J. Vasher recorded touchdown receptions of 60 & 53 yards against West Virginia. It was his first touchdowns of his career. Ka’Raun White had fourth-quarter TD catches of 32 and 17 yards to give the Mountaineers their first lead, and Grier capped the scoring with an 11-yard pass to Sills with 3:23 left. Sills also had scoring catches of 13 and 8 yards to boost his national-leading total to 12 this season. White’s brother, Kyzir White, intercepted Shimonek on Texas Tech’s next drive to dash the Red Raiders’ hopes. The Mountaineers were held under 500 yards of offense for the first time this season. POSTGAME NOTES Texas Tech found the endzone on the opening drive for the second-straight week as T.J. Vasher hauled in his first career touchdown on a Nic Shimonek screen pass that went for 60 yards. It is the second time this season where the Red Raiders have scored a touchdown on their opening drive of the game. n Texas Tech held West Virginia to negative-10 rushing yards in the opening half. It marked the first time the Red Raiders had held an opponent to five or fewer yards over the opening 30 minutes since Stephen F. Austin was limited to negative-5 yards in the 2016 season opener. n Texas Tech picked up its 15th turnover of the season with one second remaining in the third quarter as Desmon Smith picked off a deep pass from Will Grier. Tech has now forced at least one turnover in each of its six games this season. n West Virginia rushed for just 44 yards against the Red Raiders, the fewest for an opponent since Northwestern State recorded just 13 yards on the ground in 2012. n Texas Tech was previously 4-0 this season and 26-1 under head coach Kliff Kingsbury when leading after the third quarter entering today’s game. n After recording a career-high 161 rushing yards last weekend at Kansas, Justin Stockton had another solid day on the ground, totaling 96 yards off 15 carries. n T.J. Vasher put together the best performance of his young career this afternoon as the redshirt freshman had two touchdown grabs of over 50 yards. Vasher, who came into the game with four receptions for 25 yards during his career, turned a screen pass into a 60-yard touchdown reception to give the Red Raiders an early 7-0 lead. He added a 53-yard touchdown later in the first half on a #SCTop10-worthy grab that gave Tech a 28-17 lead. He is the fourth different Red Raider to have a 100-yard game through the air this season. n Dylan Cantrell caught five of his team-high eight receptions during the opening quarter, which included a six-yard touchdown strike from Shimonek with 7:58 remaining in the first quarter. Cantrell closed the game with eight catches for 85 yards and a touchdown. n Tre King found the endzone for the second time this season on a 30-yard rush up the left side with 9:11 remaining in the third quarter. The 30-yard scamper marked his second rush of over 30 yards this season (73 yard rush at Houston). King finished the game with 67 yards on eight carries. n

n The Texas Tech defense did not allow a point during the second half of its 31-13 loss to Iowa State. The
Cyclones’ lone touchdown came on a interception returned for a touchdown.
LUBBOCK, Texas (AP) - The Cyclones slowed down the nation’s seventh-most productive offense with a 31-13 win over Texas Tech at Jones AT&T Stadium on Saturday. Iowa State (5-2, 3-1 in the Big 12) had 28 votes in the Top 25 poll entering the week and could squeak in considering it held the Red Raiders (4-3, 1-3) to 336 yards, well below Tech’s six-game average of 543 yards. That would make next week’s homecoming game against No. 4 TCU one of the nation’s most intriguing games. Texas Tech head coach Kliff Kingsbury bucked his passing trend through the first half and ran 22 rushing plays for 79 yards against 9 of 11 passing by Nic Shimonek for 18 yards. Running backs Justin Stockton and Desmond Nisby fumbled on back-to-back offensive plays and on the wrong side of midfield in the first half. Iowa State converted the turnovers -- recovered by D’Andre Payne and Mike Warren -- into 10 points on a 22-yard field goal by Garrett Owens and a 4-yard touchdown grab by Matthew Eaton, who caught a 3-yard score later in the half for a 24-6 lead at the break. Cyclones signal caller Kyle Kempt threw three touchdown passes with an interception and completed 22 of 32 attempts and the offense reached 400 yards. Shimonek ultimately completed 31 of 40 passes for 207 yards with an interception as Texas Tech tried to claw back into the mix. The Red Raiders ran the ball 41 times for 129 yards. “It was more the looks we were getting,” Kingsbury said. “We felt like we could execute the run at a high level, and we didn’t. Turned the ball over a couple of times got us off schedule.” Iowa State didn’t score in the second half until the 9:07 mark of the fourth quarter, but Michael Spears’ pick-6 of 61 yards was a backbreaker against a squad which dominated second-half time of possession and managed to get back within 11 points on Shimonek’s 2-yard scramble. POSTGAME NOTES Justus Parker’s interception early in the first quarter marked the third time this season Texas Tech has forced a turnover on the opponent’s opening drive of the game. The Red Raiders previously forced a fumble on Eastern Washington’s first play in the season opener and then an interception a few weeks later against Houston. n A week after committing 16 penalties for 159 yards at West Virginia, the Red Raiders were flagged just three times for 30 yards. n Texas Tech lost the turnover margin for the first time this season as the Red Raiders had one takeaway (Justus Parker’s interception) while Iowa State was able to force a pair of fumbles as well as an interception that was returned for a touchdown. The Red Raiders now sit at plus-7 in the turnover margin this season. n Iowa State is the first Texas Tech opponent to not have any penalty yards since the Red Raiders faced Colorado on October 14, 2006. n Iowa State scored 17 points off Red Raider turnovers, matching the total Texas Tech opponents had over the first six games of the season coming into today. n Dominic Panazzolo’s first punt of the afternoon was a big one as it sailed 72 yards, marking the first time a Red Raider had a punt of 70 yards or longer since Robert King booted one 77 yards against No. 14 Texas A&M on October 2, 1993. n Keke Coutee and Cameron Batson both led the Red Raider receiving corps with a combined 18 receptions for 139 yards. For Batson, his 10 receptions marked a career-high. His previous mark was nine receptions against Oklahoma on Oct. 22, 2016. n DaMarcus Fields posted a season-high eight tackles and one pass breakup to go along with a pass breakup. He previously had five tackles earlier this season against Oklahoma State. n Desmond Nisby’s four-yard touchdown to open Texas Tech’s first possession of the game marked his seventh touchdown of the season, all of which have come in the last five games. Nisby finished the day with eight carries for 17 yards and a touchdown. n

n Tre King rushed for over 100 yards for the first time in his career as he carried 24 times for 113 yards while
catching four passes for 22 yards to lead the Red Raiders.
NORMAN, Okla. (AP) -- For a while, it looked like No. 10 Oklahoma and Texas Tech were going to re-create their record-breaking offensive output from last year, when each team piled up 854 yards in Oklahoma’s 66-59 victory. Each team scored touchdowns on its first three possessions Saturday, but Oklahoma’s defense made some key adjustments to back star quarterback Baker Mayfield in a 49-27 victory Saturday night. Mayfield completed 22 of 34 passes for 281 yards and four touchdowns and ran for another score. “Great team win -- really proud of the team,” Oklahoma coach Lincoln Riley said. “I was proud of the way we responded on both sides of the ball. (Texas Tech) had a good plan early, against some of our three-man fronts, to run it, but we made some adjustments and went back in and out of it, and I thought that kept them off-balance. They really didn’t get much after that.” Making his first career start, Rodney Anderson gained a career-high 181 yards and a touchdown rushing, and Abdul Adams returned from a two-game absence due to an ankle injury to add 95 yards rushing on 10 carries for Oklahoma (7-1, 4-1 Big 12). CeeDee Lamb set OU freshman single-game records with nine receptions for 147 yards and two touchdowns, while Mark Andrews added six catches for 79 yards and a touchdown for the Sooners, who amassed 617 yards of total offense. “We have a lot of guys able to make plays,” Mayfield said. “A lot of people coming into the year didn’t know who we were going to have, but I was always hitting on us having the best running back room we’ve had since I’ve been here. Whoever has the hot hand is going to be rolling, and at receiver, we have a lot of guys making plays for us right now.” Nic Shimonek passed for 322 yards and four touchdowns on 22-of-36 passing for Texas Tech (4-4, 1-4). Tre King gained 113 yards on 24 rushes, while T.J. Vasher compiled five receptions for 98 yards, and Keke Coutee had four catches for 93 yards and a touchdown. Cameron Batson added two receiving touchdowns. “We just didn’t execute,” Red Raiders coach Kliff Kingsbury said. “Started fast and then had some things in the second half that we just didn’t get done. We have to figure out how to sustain some of that success from the first half and make routine plays and convert. ... You just have to find a way. You have to have guys step up and leaders step up when something bad happens.” Shimonek completed his first eight passes for 149 yards and three touchdowns as Tech jumped out to a 20-14 first quarter lead. Oklahoma answered on Mayfield’s 3-yard touchdown pass to Marquise Brown just 1:15 into the second quarter to go up 21-20, and it looked like neither team was going to get a defensive stop. But Oklahoma’s defense clamped down after that, switching to a four-man front, and Texas Tech scored just one more touchdown the rest of the night. POSTGAME NOTES The Red Raiders found the endzone on their opening drive for the fourth-straight game as the Red Raiders used 15 plays to go 75 yards which ended on a nine-yard pass from Nic Shimonek to Cameron Batson. The 15 plays, 12 of which were on the ground, marked the most on a drive this season for the Red Raiders. n A week after setting career highs for rushing yards and attempts, Tre King snapped those totals again this weekend as the junior rushed 24 times for 113 yards. It marked the first 100-yard game of his career and just the third for a Red Raider this season. Justin Stockton was the last Red Raider to go over 100 yards in a game as he totaled 161 yards on the ground on Oct. 7 at Kansas. n Keke Coutee took his first catch of the night and turned it into a 70-yard touchdown reception to give the Red Raiders a 13-7 lead. It marked the second catch for over 70 yards this season as he also went 77 yards into the endzone against Houston. Coutee finished with four catches for 93 yards and a touchdown. Coutee leads the Red Raiders with seven touchdown catches this season. n
46
Dylan Cantrell hauled in his fifth touchdown of the season with 2:41 remaining in the opening quarter as he was on the receiving end of a 42-yard strike from Nic Shimonek. Cantrell ended the night with three catches for 75 yards and a touchdown. n Cameron Batson matched his career high with two receiving touchdowns as he hauled in a nine-yard pass for Texas Tech’s first touchdown of the night and then another nine-yarder with 12:10 remaining in the third quarter. Batson, who also had two receiving touchdowns last season against Texas, finished with three catches for 20 yards on the night. n T.J. Vasher, who saw his most playing time of the season, notched a career high with five receptions tonight, which resulted in 98 yards through the air. n Kolin Hill snapped his career high for tackles tonight as he registered 10 in tonight’s game, more than double his previous high of four that was most recently set earlier this year at West Virginia. n Justus Parker continued his ball-hawking ways, snagging his team-leading third interception of the year with 7:01 remaining in the third quarter. Parker, who also forced a fumble that went out of bounds in the first half, notched five tackles and a QB hurry for the Red Raiders. He has now been part of four of Texas Tech’s 17 takeaways this season. n

n Keke Coutee matched his career high with 12 catches against Kansas State, totaling 189 yards and two
touchdowns through the air.
LUBBOCK, Texas (AP) - Skylar Thompson threw an 8-yard touchdown pass to Byron Pringle in overtime and Kansas State defeated Texas Tech 42-35 on Saturday. After the Wildcats’ OT score, Red Raiders QB Nic Shimonek threw out of the end zone on fourthand-4. The Wildcats (5-4, 3-3 Big 12) trailed in the final minute of regulation. But Dalton Schoen caught a two-point conversion pass from Thompson with 42 seconds to play following Thompson’s successful dive on second-and-goal from the 1. Kansas State had trailed for the previous 19:18 after blowing a 24-21 advantage. Thompson, a redshirt freshman who replaced Alex Delton after a helmet-to-helmet hit late in the first half, played the final 30 minutes and finished 5 of 8 for 96 yards passing and the touchdown. Delton started the prior three games for Jesse Ertz, who is sidelined with a knee injury. Trailing 17-14 at halftime, Shimonek threw third-quarter scores to Keke Coutee and Dylan Cantrell of 34 yards and 1 yard, respectively. Cantrell’s catch gave the Red Raiders a lead of 28-24 and came a split-second after Shimonek shook off blitzing defensive end Reggie Walker. Texas Tech added a 22-yard touchdown reception from T.J. Vasher in the fourth quarter and Kansas State mustered a 30-yard field goal by Matthew McCrane ahead of tying the game. D.J. Reed’s punt return of more than 80 yards for a touchdown was initially negated by a holding call and, subsequently, Colby Moore’s targeting infraction on the play after video review. That wasn’t the first time the Wildcats offense cancelled a scoring play. Delton’s 14-yard throw to Winston Dimel was called back, but Delton connected with Pringle the next snap for a shortlived 17-7 lead. Down 28-24 late in the third quarter, Thompson later threw a 37-yard touchdown pass to Isaiah Zuber that was whistled back after Zuber drifted out of bounds before coming back in for the catch. Kansas State punted the next play. POSTGAME NOTES Mychealon Thomas’ interception late in the second quarter marked the 18th turnover created by the Texas Tech defense this year. After giving away an interception of its own, Tech remains at plus-7 in the turnover margin this year. n Thomas’ interception marked the 11th of the year for the Red Raiders, their most over the first nine games of a season since the 2010 team also had the same total. n Texas Tech put together a long scoring drive for its fourth touchdown of the day as the Red Raiders traveled 75 yards on 15 plays. It matched the most plays for the Red Raiders on a drive this season (opening drive at OU), while the 6:32 duration was Tech’s longest of the year. n Texas Tech was just 2-of-6 on third-down conversions in the opening 30 minutes of play but responded by going 5-of-6 in the third quarter and 9-of-12 during the second half and overtime. n Nic Shimonek posted his seventh 300-yard game of the season this afternoon as the senior finished 34-of-53 for a Big 12 career-best 405 yards and four touchdowns. It was the fifth time during Big 12 play where he has thrown for at least 300 yards. n Keke Coutee put together his seventh career game with over 100 receiving yards and his third this season. He finished with a season’s best 189 yards on a career-high tying 12 receptions. Coutee also went over the 100-yard mark for the third time this season. He also surpassed 100 yards against Arizona State (186 yards) and Houston (161 yards) earlier this season. n Coutee’s 75-yard touchdown with 7:26 remaining in the second quarter marked the second time in as many weeks and the third time this season where he has busted an opposing defense for a touchdown of 70 yards or longer. He previously had a 70-yard touchdown grab last weekend at Oklahoma and then a 77-yarder earlier this year against Houston. n Dominic Panazzolo put K-State deep in its own territory late in the first quarter with a 42-yard punt that went out of bounds at the 2-yard line. It marked the deepest Panazzolo has put an opponent so far this season. n

n Douglas Coleman III forced and then brought back a fumble 31 yards for a touchdown in Tech’s victory
over Baylor. It marked the second time Coleman has returned a fumble for a touchdown during his career.
ARLINGTON, Texas (AP) - Keke Coutee had Texas Tech’s first game-opening kickoff return for a touchdown since 1973, and the Red Raiders went on to end a four-game losing streak with a 38-24 win over Baylor on Saturday. Tech (5-5, 2-5 Big 12) started fast as Coutee took the opening kickoff back 93 yards to start a Tech game with a touchdown return for the first time since Lawrence Williams against New Mexico in 1973. Baylor (1-9, 1-6) got even when Charlie Brewer threw a 4-yard TD to Gavin Holmes on its opening drive, but the Red Raiders went ahead to stay on Tre King’s 1-yard TD run that capped their first offensive possession. Nic Shimonek threw for 246 yards and two touchdowns, the eighth time this season the fifthyear senior had multiple TD passes for Tech. Shimonek completed his first 10 passes for the third time this season, and finished 24-of-29 passing. Brewer completed 43 of 63 passes for 417 yards and three touchdowns in his second start for the Bears (1-9, 1-6), a week after they beat Kansas in his starting debut. Denzel Mims had 12 catches for 152 yards and a late score. THE TAKEAWAY Texas Tech: Coutee entered the game tied for the Big 12 lead with 69 catches, or 7.7 per game. He had only two catches against Baylor, but had the big play to start the game. Dylan Cantrell had 11 catches for the Red Raiders. Baylor: Brewer and the young Bears had 523 total yards, but also had four turnovers. There were two lost fumbles on quarterback-running back exchanges, one of them inside the 10 when Baylor was down only 14-7 in the first quarter. There was also the interception Brewer threw into the end zone just before halftime. Tech returned a fumble for a touchdown in the fourth when Tony Nicholson was stripped after a catch.

POSTGAME NOTES Texas Tech scored 38 points in the win, marking the eighth-consecutive season the Red Raiders have hit the 30-point mark against Baylor. Tech has now scored 30 or more points in 18 of the last 21 meetings against the Bears. n The Red Raider defense forced four turnovers in the win, giving them 22 now for the season. It marks the most takeaways by the Red Raiders through the first 10 games of a season since the Red Raiders had 24 at the same point in the 2008 season. n Both of Texas Tech’s takeaways (Dakota Allen fumble recovery; Vaughnte Dorsey interception) in the first half came when Baylor was inside the redzone. The Red Raiders came into the game with just two redzone takeaways, both of which were interceptions. n Dylan Cantrell was a familiar target of Nic Shimonek’s throughout today’s game, especially early as he had six of his team-high 11 catches come in the first quarter alone. n Keke Coutee’s big day for the Red Raiders started from the first whistle as he returned the opening kickoff 92 yards into the endzone to give Texas Tech an early 7-0 lead. It marked the first time a Red Raider has returned the opening kickoff for a touchdown since Lawrence Williams went 95 yards in 1973 versus New Mexico. n Coutee’s opening kickoff returned for a touchdown marked just the third in Big 12 history as he joins Oklahoma State’s Justin Gilbert (2013 vs. Kansas) and Missouri’s Gahn McGaffie (2010 vs. Oklahoma) as the only conference players to ever do so. n Douglas Coleman III found the endzone for the second time in his career as he returned a fumble 31 yards late in the fourth quarter. n

n Broderick Washington snapped his career high with seven tackles in Texas Tech’s loss to No. 12 TCU. It
broke his previous mark of five takedowns set earlier this year against Oklahoma.
ARLINGTON, Texas (AP) - Shawn Robinson became the first true freshman quarterback to start a game for No. 11 TCU in coach Gary Patterson’s 17 seasons as head coach. Even after a 27-3 win over Texas Tech that got the Horned Frogs closer to a spot in the Big 12 championship game, Patterson kept to his policy of not letting freshmen talk to the media after the game. The victory speaks loud enough for Robinson and the Horned Frogs (9-2, 6-2 Big 12, No. 12 CFP). ‘’Our goal is for our seniors to have the best season they can have,’’ Patterson said. ‘’They have a chance to win 10, 11 or 12 ballgames, which is really cool.’’ Less than a year after winning a Texas Class 6A state high school championship game, Robinson ran for 84 yards and threw a key second-half touchdown in his first career start at TCU. He was filling in for senior Kenny Hill, who didn’t even make the trip to Lubbock because of an unspecified injury. ‘’The worst thing that could have had happened today was he could have had such a terrible outing that you lose your confidence and lose it for three years,’’ Patterson said. ‘’For me, that was the one thing that was not going to happen today. Shawn Robinson was not going to lose his confidence for the next three years.’’ While Robinson was only 6-of-17 passing for 85 yards, his 12-yard TD to Jalen Reagor came late in the third quarter as the Frogs (9-2, 6-2 Big 12, No. 12 CFP) took a 17-3 lead. That score came on the drive after another missed field goal by Texas Tech (5-6, 2-6), which with numerous kickers has made only 8 of 16 attempts this year. Clayton Hayfield badly hooked a 20-yard try , the ball sweeping across the front of the goalposts. That miss came after the Red Raiders forced a fumble by Robinson and recovered at the TCU 6. ‘’They put the ball in the end zone here, we’re going to loop back from there,’’ Texas Tech safety Jah’Shawn Johnson said of the sequence. ‘’I mean TCU’s defense done a great job of doing what they had to do to get off the field and force our kicker to make a field goal, and they put some pressure in his face and he missed it.’’ The Red Raiders got their only score on their opening drive of the game, a 21-play, 70-yard effort that ended with Hatfield’s 22-yard field goal with 6:08 left in the first quarter. TCU also scored on its opening drive, on KaVontae Turpin’s 2-yard TD run on the first play of the second quarter. ‘’I’m always confident in what we can do offensively,’’ Texas Tech coach Kliff Kingsbury said. ‘’Today was obviously a very poor performance, but love what I’m seeing on the defensive side and how hard we’re playing on that side of the ball.’’

Tech’s 27-23 come-from-behind victory over Texas.
AUSTIN, Texas (AP) - Nik Shimonek came off the bench in the fourth quarter to throw two touchdown passes and Texas Tech rallied to beat Texas 27-23 Friday night and earn a victory to make the Red Raiders bowl eligible for the 38th time in program history. Shimonek, the starter all season, sat for McLane Carter to begin the game, but came in with the Red Raiders (6-6, 3-6) trailing 23-13. His first drive included a 51-yard completion and his short touchdown pass to T.J. Vasher cut it to 23-20. The game winner, a 16-yard pass to Cameron Batson, came with 2:07 to play. The touchdown was set up by a 52-yard interception return to the Texas 14 by Justus Parker. Texas’ final drive ended when Longhorns quarterback Sam Ehlinger threw another interception at the Texas Tech 20 with 1 minute to play. It was one of four turnovers created by the 806 defense on Friday night. It was the largest comeback by a Red Raider squad since 2006, when Tech rallied back from down 38-7 against Minnesota to win, 44-41, in OT. Ehlinger passed for 239 yards and a touchdown but the Texas offense slogged through most of the final three quarters. The Longhorns ran for just 18 yards and had deep drives end in field goals of 19 and 20 yards by Josh Rowland instead of touchdowns. Texas (6-6, 5-4) had already clinched its first bowl berth since 2014 under first-year coach Tom Herman but must win its postseason game to avoid a fourth consecutive losing season. POSTGAME NOTES Texas Tech overcame a 10-point deficit in tonight’s win, its largest in a Big 12 victory since the Red Raiders battled back from 30-11 in their 2004 victory at Kansas. n The Red Raiders forced four second-half turnovers to win the turnover battle. Texas Tech closed the regular season at plus-11 overall in the turnover margin, one off the school record. n Keke Coutee put together another strong performance to lead the Red Raider receiving core as the Earl Campbell Award semifinalist ended the night with nine catches for 168 yards, 104 of which came in the first half alone. It marked Coutee’s eighth career game with at least 100 receiving yards and his fourth such performance this season. n The successful night pushed Coutee’s season total to 1,242 yards, which ends the regular season in sole possession of sixth place on the Texas Tech single-season chart. Coutee passed the likes of Carlos Francis (2003), Jarrett Hicks (2004), Michael Crabtree (2008), Jonathan Giles (2016) and Jakeem Grant (2015) on the list during the first-half alone. x n T.J. Vasher made a pair of big plays in the passing game as he hauled in receptions of 51 and 40 yards in tonight’s game. It was part of a five-catch, 127-yard performance for Vasher, who went over 100 yards for the second time in his career. In addition, Vasher has now caught six passes that have gone for 25 yards or longer this year. n McLane Carter, making his first career start leading the Red Raider offense, closed the night 16-of-37 overall for 237 yards. He also had nine rush attempts on the night. n Dakota Allen notched his second sack of the season with roughly six minutes remaining in the first quarter. Allen had another stellar game for the Red Raider defense as he posted 13 tackles, which marked the eighth game of his career with 10-plus tackles and his third this season. n Douglas Coleman III sealed the win by intercepting Ehlinger with 55 seconds to go in Tech territory, marking the second year in a row he has made a huge play against Texas, after returning a fumble a school-record 100 yards for a TD in the 2016 matchup. n Perhaps the play of the game was made by Justus Parker, as he intercepted a third-down Sam Ehlinger pass, and returned it all the way to the Texas 10 yard line with less than two minutes remaining., which set up the go-ahead score. n
