LINCOLN, Neb. (AP) - Cody Hodges tossed a 10-yard touchdown pass to Joel Filani with 12 seconds left, lifting No. 15 Texas Tech to a 34-31 victory over Nebraska on Saturday. The Red Raiders (5-0, 2-0 Big 12) squandered a three-touchdown lead and then had to rely on good fortune to have a chance to score the winning touchdown.
Le Kevin Smith intercepted Hodges near the goal line with 1:11 left, but fumbled on the return. Danny Amendola recovered for Tech, setting up the Raiders at the Nebraska 18.
On fourth-and-2 from the 10, and with Titus Adams and Wali Muhammad in his face, Hodges threw into end zone, where a diving Filani pulled in the ball for the winning touchdown.
