No. 13 Texas Tech stops a late 2 and beats No. 22 Houston 28-26 in Big 12 opener - AP News

J'Koby Williams and Cameron Dickey punched in second-half touchdowns to give the defending Big 12 champions enough cushion to survive a late Houston push. Weigman, the Cougars quarterback, threw his third touchdown pass of the night, a 10-yard strike to Patrick Overmyer, to pull Houston within two points with under a minute to play. He tried to tie it himself. Lunging left toward the end zone, his knee hit the ground before the ball crossed the plane.

The win keeps Tech unbeaten in conference play to start the season and drops Houston to 0-1 in the Big 12. For a Red Raiders program still carrying the weight of last year's conference title, opening league play with a win over a ranked opponent matters, especially given how close the finish was on replay review.

Houston falls to 2-1 overall and will look to regroup after coming one lunge short of forcing overtime against a top-15 team.
