Doege, who played most of the game, went 23 for 33. He threw two touchdown passes for 20 yards and one for 10. Eric Stephens ran for two touchdowns - one a 46-yarder where he went untouched up the middle to put the Red Raiders up 23-10. He finished with 118 yards on 21 carries. Darrin Moore, Doege’s favorite target, caught 12 passes for 221 yards. The Bobcats (0-1) started off solid with an option-type ground game that gave Texas Tech’s defense fits. Three of the Bobcats’ four fumbles, by quarterback Shaun Rutherford and running backs Marcus Curry and Terrence Franks, led to touchdowns for the Red Raiders (0-1). Once Texas Tech’s offense got on track they moved easily down the field, mixing its pass-heavy offense with the run. The Red Raiders actually ran more than they passed but got more yards in the air. Texas Tech got 157 yards on 33 carries.
