Texas clinches Big 12 title berth by running through Texas Tech in final conference meeting
Texas dominates Texas Tech with stout defense, strong running game to clinch Big 12 championship berth, keep College Football Playoff hopes alive
AUSTIN – This time, it was Texas Tech that broke.
Texas declared before the season that they’d “embrace the hate” during the farewell tour of the Big 12. That tour turned into one of revenge. Texas (11-1) lost four regular season games last season – all by one possession. The Longhorns avenged the Alabama loss with a 10-point win in Week 2. They knocked off TCU by three points two weeks ago. Texas Tech (6-6) was paid back on Friday night, and the hope is that an Oklahoma State squad that bested Texas by seven points in 2022 will be waiting in the Big 12 championship game next week in Arlington.
