It took 14 years for Texas Tech fans to relish the moment of defeating their in-state rival, No. 22 Texas, at Jones AT&T Stadium.
But after the Red Raiders’ 37-34 overtime win against the Longhorns on Saturday, the fans embraced the moment and stormed the field after kicker Trey Wolff notched a game-sealing, 20-yard field goal for Texas Tech.
From a historical standpoint, Texas Tech’s win against Texas marked the first time the Red Raiders defeated the Longhorns at home since Michael Crabtree’s game-winning touchdown catch in 2008.
Texas star running back Bijan Robinson fumbled the ball on the first play of overtime action, the game-changing play that allowed the Red Raiders to put together five plays and 23 yards capped by Wolff’s three points.
