#TBT - The 2014 Iowa State Game
November 17, 2016 | Football
AMES, Iowa (AP) - In his first-career road start, freshman Patrick Mahomes passed for 328 yards and four touchdowns, the last a 44-yard fourth-quarter toss to Kenny Williams that lifted Texas Tech to a 34-31 victory over Iowa State on Nov. 22, 2014.
Iowa State led 31-27 lead on Aaron Wimberly's 3-yard touchdown run early the fourth quarter, but missed a chance to extend the lead when Cole Netten's 42-yard field goal attempt hooked left.
Tech then marched 75 yards in seven plays for the game-winner, which came when Mahomes found Williams all alone in the right flat and the 228-pounder rumbled untouched to the end zone with 4:07 left to end the Red Raiders' three-game losing streak.
Iowa State drove into Tech territory after Williams' touchdown but gave up the ball on downs when quarterback Sam Richardson was stopped just short of converting at the Red Raiders' 31.
This year's contest against Iowa State will take place this Saturday, at 2:30 p.m., in Ames. The game will be televised on FS1, and fans can hear it on one of the more than 40 radio affiliates of the Texas Tech Sports Network.
