Social media reacts to Texas’ upset loss to Texas Tech
One step forward, two steps back for Texas football.
The Longhorns are making the trip home from Lubbock with a loss after a 37-34 overtime affair with Texas Tech.
Holding on to double-digit leads continues to be an issue for this Texas program. The Red Raiders took advantage of a sluggish second half from Texas to rally back from a 31-17 third-quarter deficit.
The teams traded field goals in the final 30 seconds of the game to force an overtime period tied at 34-34.
Overtime did not go as planned for Steve Sarkisian’s squad. Star running back Bijan Robinson fumbled the first carry of overtime to set Texas Tech up in a great position to win the game.
Texas Tech kicker Trey Wolff hit a 20-yard game-winning field goal as Texas drops to 2-2 on the season.
Here is how social media reacted to Texas’ overtime loss at the hands of Texas Tech. It is safe to say the Texas faithful are not happy.

Do y’all think Gary Patterson is going to magically make our edges better at rushing the passer over night? I agree PK didn’t have a good day but damn

Shocking to see Bijan Robinson fumble in that situation.

This sucks, but brothers in the locker room need to take control immediately and not let this shit spiral like last year. Fanbase gonna be nuts right now, but y’all have 8 conference games left & must lock in, coaches & their gameplans included.
