Watch: Texas WR Collin Johnson makes acrobatic TD catch in first half matchup with Texas Tech

Texas quarterback Shane Buechele and receiver Collin Johnson showed off some nice chemistry in the first half of the Longhorns' matchup with Texas Tech.

The two freshmen — and roommates — connected on two touchdowns passes to help lift Texas to a 23–21 first-half lead.

At 6-6, Johnson drew a lot of hype during spring practices for his ability to go up and get balls in traffic. However, the freshman saw limited playing time and failed to reel in a touchdown in his first eight games.

Johnson has three catches for 31 yards at the half.
