Ricky Williams ran for 156 yards and three touchdowns to help No. 23 Texas break a two-game losing streak with a 71-14 victory over Oklahoma State on Saturday night at Austin, Texas.

The Longhorns (3-2, 2-0) finished with 624 yards, second most in school history, and racked up their highest point total since beating Rice, 72-15, in 1977.

Oklahoma State (3-2, 0-2) was led by David Thompson, who gained 153 yards in 20 carries.

Texas Tech 45, Baylor 24--Byron Hanspard rushed for a school-record 287 yards and the Red Raiders gained 624 yards at Lubbock, Texas.

Hanspard’s fifth consecutive 200-yard game helped Texas Tech (3-2, 2-1) built a 17-0 lead.

Baylor is 3-1, 0-1.

Kansas 52, Oklahoma 24--The Jayhawks used a 100-yard kickoff return by Eric Vann and a school-record 94-yard punt return by Isaac Byrd to score the most points ever against the Sooners at Norman, Okla.

The long returns were two of many mistakes in the kicking game that helped doom the Sooners (0-4, 0-1). They are in the midst of a school-record seven-game losing streak and are off to their worst start since going 0-5 in 1961.

Kansas is 3-1, 1-0.

Texas A&M; 63, Louisana Tech 13--D’Andre Hardeman ran for three touchdowns and the Aggies scored 42 consecutive points in a nonconference game at College Station, Texas.

Texas A&M; (2-3) scored touchdowns on six of seven first-half possessions for a 42-3 halftime lead over the Bulldogs (3-3).
