Texas Tech celebrates big win over Texas in style

The locker room celebration quickly went viral.

After it defeated Texas 48-45 on Thanksgiving and picked up its first win in Austin since 1997, the entire Twitter-verse got to see how much the win meant to Texas Tech.

After the win, wide receiver Jonathan Giles retweeted a quick video of the team’s celebration from an anonymous Twitter account.

In the video water rained down like it was champagne. The team jumped up and down with fullback Tyler Scalzi and quarterback Patrick Mahomes II clearly elated and front and center in the video — Scalzi whipping his long hair back and forth as Mahomes jumped in and out of the frame.
