LUBBOCK, Texas — The Texas Tech-Texas rivalry has heated up as of late with all the drama surrounding the men's basketball programs, and now, baseball is adding to the fire.
In the bottom of the 10th inning on Friday, tied at 4-4, Red Raiders utility man Kurt Wilson stole home in walk-off fashion to take down the No. 2 Texas Longhorns. Pandemonium set in at Rip Griffin Park after Wilson went head first into home plate safely.
There weren't any minced words from the Red Raiders, either. Following the win, Texas Tech intentionally celebrated in front of the Longhorns' dugout.
The Longhorns have two more games to get revenge as they close out the three-game series on Saturday and Sunday in Lubbock.
