Lubbock, Texas (AP) Donovan Smith He came off the bench to throw four touchdown passes Tahj Brooks Running for three points, Texas Tech beat low-division Murray State 63-10 in Coach. Joey McGuireFirst Saturday night.
Smith scored on his first two passes after being replaced. Tyler Shaw In the first half. McGuire indicated he planned to play both, but said he was injured during the halftime show and probably won’t be back. Shaw was sidelined in the second half with a left (non-throwing) shoulder sprain.
Brooks finished with 50 yards and scores of 14, 3 and 23 yards, the last of which gave the Red Raiders a 42-10 lead in the first half in the home opener for their 23rd straight win.
Texas Tech’s first meeting with Murray State and its 20th straight win against an FCS opponent matched the 2010-19 low-division matchups, with an average margin of victory of 40 points.
After winning three Texas high school championships, McGuire, a Baylor assistant for the past five years, is less concerned about becoming the fifth consecutive Texas Tech coach since 2000 to win the inaugural Texas Open.
Last season, Murray State quarterback DJ Williams suffered a right leg injury on the final play of the first half of the Ohio Valley Conference.
Williams was scrambling with the Racers as time expired before halftime when he lost control of the ball and fell to the field, clutching his right leg. Unable to put any pressure on his right leg, Williams was helped off the field.
Loic Founji And Jeran Bradley He had two touchdowns each. Foonji threw a 30-yarder to Bradley on a 30-yard catch from Shaw before Smith threw his first TD.
Fouonji’s 39-yard catch from Smith gave Texas Tech a 28-10 lead early in the second quarter, and Bradley’s 14-yard score made it 56-10 early in the third.
Bradley, a sophomore, had his first career 100-yard game with 108 yards on six carries, while Fuongji finished with four catches for 77 yards.
Smith was 14 of 16 for 221 yards without an interception before being replaced. Beren Morton In the third quarter. Shough was 6 of 10 for 154 yards as Texas Tech finished with 472 yards passing and 605 total.
The taken
Leadership State: Racing prospects moving forward are a dual threat to Williams’ health. Before the injury, he had 207 yards with a 54-yard touchdown pass to Jacob Bell. Murray State gained just 35 yards in the second half without Williams. Lucas Mau was 1-of-7 passing for 1 yard.
Texas Tech The show was the opening act for the second series. He made it through the fourth game last season before breaking his collarbone. Smith got into nine games last year because of Shaw’s injury and looks set to become a full-time starter if Shaw faces another extended layoff.
