Sloppy Performance as Texas Loses to Texas Tech 37-34 in Overtime: Live Game Log

The Longhorns head to Lubbock to take on the Red Raiders to start Big 12 play.

The Texas Longhorns are kicking off Big 12 conference play on Saturday, hitting the road to take on the Texas Tech Red Raiders. 

Both teams enter with a 2-1 record, with the Longhorns' loss coming to the Alabama Crimson Tide in a near upset and the Red Raiders' loss coming against the NC State Wolfpack. 

There were questions as to who would start for the Longhorns at quarterback in this one, especially with the news that Quinn Ewers would travel and suit up following his injury against Alabama. Those questions were put to rest, though, when coach Steve Sarkisian announced that Hudson Card would start for a second straight game. 

While anything can happen in a rivalry game, recent history does favor the Longhorns in this matchup. The Longhorns have won four straight games against the Red Raiders and six straight games in Lubbock. 

Sarkisian and the Longhorns will look for a repeat performance of the 70-35 drubbing they put on the Longhorns last year, in what could be Texas' final game in Lubbock. 

Stay tuned here as we provide live drive-by-drive updates as the Longhorns take on the Red Raiders from Jones AT&T Stadium on Saturday. 

Live updates will be available shortly after kickoff...
