Hammond Returns as Texas Tech Wins | Texas Tech Red Raiders Football News

Texas Tech opens the season with a statement win, as returning QB Will Hammond dazzles for 298 yards and a TD after missing last year with a knee injury—culminating in a jaw-dropping 64-yard bomb to Malcolm Simmons. The Red Raiders also got field goals from Stone Harrington and touchdowns from Quinten Joyner and JKoby Williams, while their stout defense held firm against Abilene Christian’s late-game kickoff return TD. With a record 12-win campaign and Big 12 title last year behind them, Texas Tech looks poised for another run—even without former QB Brendan Sorsby, who’s now gone following legal troubles. Next up: a road test against Oregon State. Listen in comfort:Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
