Tahj Brooks set a school season record with his 11th 100-yard rushing game to lead Texas Tech to a 52-15 victory Saturday over West Virginia in Lubbock, Texas, to conclude the regular season.

The Red Raiders (8-4, 6-3 Big 12) reached eight wins in the regular season for the first time since 2009.

Brooks finished with 188 yards and three touchdowns on 23 carries.

Behren Morton completed 28 of 41 pass attempts for 359 yards with two touchdowns and an interception.

West Virginia (6-6, 5-4) failed in its bid to finish unbeaten in Big 12 road games this season. The Mountaineers won their first three conference road games.

Garrett Greene was 29 of 39 for 265 yards with a touchdown and two interceptions.

Jahiem White gained 124 yards and a touchdown on 14 carries.

Brooks rushed for 93 yards on 10 carries, including three touchdowns, in the first half as Texas Tech built a 35-3 lead.

Morton passed for 242 yards and a touchdown while completing 20 of 28 pass attempts in the half.

West Virginia was limited to 125 yards of total offense in the first half while Texas Tech amassed 339.

The Mountaineers had only 27 yards on the ground, mostly because Garrett Greene was sacked four times, twice by linebacker Terrell Tilmon.

The Red Raiders scored on all six of their six possessions in the first half, two field goals followed by four touchdowns.

Brooks’ touchdown runs occurred on quick possessions of 2:11, 1:05 and 38 seconds.

The last two occurred after turnovers.

After CJ Baskerville intercepted a pass from Greene at the West Virginia 32, Brooks scored on a 37-yard run with 1:35 left in the half.

Greene was then sacked Tilmon, who forced a fumble that was recovered by Brenden Jordan at the Mountaineers’ 35.

A 30-yard pass from Morton to Brooks set up Brooks’ 2-yard touchdown run with nine seconds left before halftime.

Texas Tech continued the scoring barrage in the second half, going 75 yards on nine plays in the first possession.

Morton’s 31-yard pass to Caleb Douglas capped the drive, increasing the lead to 42-3.

The Red Raiders’ streak of scoring possessions ended at seven when Anthony Wilson Jr. intercepted a pass from Morton with 8:07 left in the third quarter.
