(AP) - A late comeback effort by the Red Raiders 2011 BIG 12 STANDINGS wasn’t enough, as Texas Tech fell short against Missouri on Saturday TEAM CONFERENCE OVERALL STREAK night. Oklahoma State 7-1 10-1 L1 Missouri’s James Franklin accounted for four touchdowns and got the Kansas State 6-2 9-2 W2 go-ahead score on a 9-yard run with 2:22 remaining as Missouri rallied Oklahoma 5-2 8-2 L1 past Texas Tech. Baylor 4-3 7-3 W3 Franklin rushed for a career-best 152 yards with two touchdowns to Texas A&M 4-4 6-5 W1 help the Tigers (6-5, 4-4 Big 12) overcome Henry Josey’s season-ending Missouri 4-4 6-5 W2 knee injury last week. He was 13 for 20 for 172 yards and two more 3-4 6-4 W3 touchdowns, including a 7-yarder to Marcus Lucas earlier in the fourth Iowa State Texas 3-4 6-4 L2 that cut Texas Tech’s lead to three. 2-6 5-6 L4 Texas Tech threatened late, driving to the Missouri 6, before Domi- Texas Tech Kansas 0-8 2-9 L9 nique Hamilton tipped a pass from Seth Doege and Michael Sam intercepted at the 4. Doege threw for one touchdown and ran for another for Texas Tech (5-6, 2-6), which has lost four in a row and must beat Baylor next week to become bowl eligible for the 12th straight season. This was a major improvement for the Red Raiders, who have lost by an average of 42 points the previous three games and absorbed the worst loss in school history last week in a 66-6 rout against Oklahoma State. Missouri trailed entering the fourth quarter for the seventh time, and won for the second time under those circumstances. A week after trailing 49-0 at halftime in a 66-6 loss to Oklahoma State, Texas Tech started fast, playing with the wind on a gusty day, and led 17-10 at the break, fueled by touchdowns on two of the first three possessions - a 1-yard run by Bradley Marquez out of the wildcat formation and Doege’s 3-yard run. It was only the third time Tech had led at the break all season. Michael Egnew’s first touchdown catch in five games came on a leaping grab in the back of the end zone to cut Missouri’s deficit to 20-17 with 4:43 to go in the third quarter. It was the first touchdown in the third quarter in five games for the Tigers, who have totaled 40 points in that quarter all year.
