No. 10 Texas Tech generated 502 yards of total offense behind the passing of Will Hammond and running of J’Koby Williams in a 53-25 Big 12 victory Saturday over Arizona State at Lubbock, Texas.<\/p>\n
Hammond completed 18 of 26 pass attempts for 232 yards with one touchdown and no interceptions.<\/p>\n
Williams rushed for a career-high 165 yards on 11 carries with two touchdowns, which tied a career-high.<\/p>\n
Kenny Johnson had seven receptions for a career-high 120 yards for Texas Tech (6-0, 3-0 Big 12).<\/p>\n
The Red Raiders won their 12th straight home game, the longest stretch since 2007 to 2009.<\/p>\n
After beating Hawai’i last week at home, Arizona State (3-3, 1-2) has failed to win consecutive games this season.<\/p>\n
The game pitted the last two Big 12 champions against each other.<\/p>\n
Arizona State handed Texas Tech its lone loss in the regular season last season when the Red Raiders captured the conference championship and finished 12-2 after losing to Oregon in the CFP quarterfinals.<\/p>\n
Arizona State starting quarterback Cutter Boley, a transfer from Kentucky, was benched after halftime after the Sun Devils trailed 43-10.<\/p>\n
Boley had one touchdown and two interceptions while completing 5 of 10 passes for 124 yards.<\/p>\n
Mikey Keene, formerly of UCF, Fresno State and Michigan, played in the second half and completed 25 of 34 pass attempts for 256 yards with two touchdowns and no interceptions.<\/p>\n
The Sun Devils’ running game mustered only 35 yards on 28 carries.<\/p>\n
Texas Tech produced six sacks for a loss of 61 yards.<\/p>\n
Arizona State’s first three possessions ended with an interception by Boley that was returned 24 yards for a touchdown by Ben Roberts, a turnover on downs and a punt.<\/p>\n
Texas Tech converted the turnover on downs into a 9-yard touchdown run by Will Hammond and the punt into a 62-yard touchdown run by Williams.<\/p>\n
The Red Raiders led 21-0 at that point with 3:17 left in the first quarter.<\/p>\n
Boley connected with Raiden Vines-Bright on a 74-yard touchdown pass on Arizona State’s next possession.<\/p>\n
Texas Tech pulled away in the second quarter behind three field goals by Stone Harrington, including a 37-yard field goal as time expired, a 38-yard touchdown run by Williams and an 11-yard scoring strike from Hammond to Coy Eakin.<\/p>\n
