Texas Tech QB Behren Morton connected with wide receiCoy Eakin on a 33-yard touchdown pass to snag the lead in the Big 12 Football Championship game. Eakin and a BYU defensive back contested for the ball, but it was the wide receiver who came out on top.However, college football analyst David Pollack believes that the touchdown shouldn't have stood. Pollack wrote on X (formerly Twitter),"We saw all those replays of the clear touchdown but didn't see one to see the extremely clear 2 handed shove by the TT WR? Should have been Offensive Pass Interference and it wasn't debatable."The referee initially called the play short, but upon a review, ruled it as the first touchdown of the contest. It's Coy Eakin's fifth touchdown of the campaign. The pacey wide receiver is in his fourth season with the Red Raiders, and he’s looking to close out his college football career with a deep postseason run and potentially a national championship.Texas Tech Red Raiders lead BYU Cougars at halftimeThe Red Raiders have the upper hand in this contest of 11-1 teams.
