Thursday’s games

Texas Tech 17, TCU 14

FORT WORTH, TEXAS

Jett Duffey scored on a 38-yard quarterback draw with seven minutes left, holding on to the ball just long enough for the go-ahead score in Texas Tech’s victory over TCU. Duffey took off on the first play after a punt, and the touchdown stood after a replay review. The ball rolled forward through the end zone after defender Trevon Moehrig-Woodard knocked it loose right at the goal line. It was the third time the Red Raiders (4-2, 2-1 Big 12) won in their last four trips to Fort Worth. TCU (3-3, 1-2) had its final drive ended when Shawn Robinson desperately scrambled from one side of the field to the other on fourth-and-1 before the ball appeared to slip out of his hands and was intercepted by Adrian Frye in the final minute. Duffey finished 13-of-24 passing for 190 yards, including a 62-yard touchdown in the third quarter to Ja’Deion High, who was wide open at the 30 and ran the rest of the way. Duffey also had 16 carries for 83 yards.

Georgia Southern 15, Texas State 13

SAN MARCOS, TEXAS

Wesley Fields rushed for 93 yards and a touchdown, helping Georgia Southern beat Texas State. Georgia Southern led 15-0 before Texas State’s second-half comeback. Texas State got on the board with 59 seconds left in the third quarter. Keenen Brown ran for 61 yards before getting tripped up at the 4 and he punched it in on second-and-goal to pull to 15-7. Jeremiah Haydel caught a 29-yard pass in the corner of the end zone to make it 15-13 with 2:20 left, but the Bobcats’ 2-point conversion attempt fell incomplete.
