TEAM NOTES

• Texas’ becomes the first Big 12 team defensively since 2006, and just the 10th in league history, to hold all conference opponents under 30 points in their league slate. The Longhorns also did so in 2001 and 2005.

• After having 175 yards on 11-of-15 passing in the first quarter, Texas’ defense held Texas Tech to 9-of-30 for 148 passing yards over the final three quarters.

• Texas’ 10 pass breakups are a season-high. They previously had seven at Iowa State on Sept. 28.

• Texas held Texas Tech to 62 yards rushing. It was the seventh time this season (fifth in Big 12 play) they’ve held an opponent under 100 yards rushing in a game, most since doing so 10 times in 2009.
