Iowa State couldn’t manage to send the Longhorns packing with one final loss in Ames tonight, as Texas prevailed by a final score of 26-16.
Line play was the story of the contest, with Texas dominating the line of scrimmage in this game, holding the Cyclones to a miserable 9 yards rushing for an average of 0.4 yards/attempt, while Texas rushed for 123 on the ground.
The game opened in a boring fashion, with teams trading punts until the Cyclones put together an 11 play 53-yard drive ending in a Chase Contreraz field goal. Texas would quickly counter with one of their own making it 3-3.
