Cameron Dickey rushed for a career-high 263 yards that included touchdown runs of 71 and 55 yards in No. 9 Texas Tech's 42-17 victory over Kansas in a Big 12 game on Saturday night at Lubbock, Texas.

Dickey, a sophomore, did not rush for more than 100 yards in any of his 12 previous games with the Red Raiders.

Texas Tech quarterback Behren Morton exited the game with 6:40 left in the second quarter after suffering a right lower-leg injury.

Morton was 7 of 12 for 91 yards with a touchdown.

Will Hammond replaced him for the rest of the game and completed seven of 16 pass attempts for 42 yards with one interception.

The Red Raiders recorded 505 yards of offense (133 passing, 372 rushing), to a 319 total for the Jayhawks, who had 74 on the ground.

Texas Tech (6-0, 3-0 Big 12) scored on its first four possessions, building a 21-0 lead with a 11:03 left in the second quarter.

Dickey busted free for a 71-yard touchdown on Texas Tech's first offensive play after the defense forced Kansas (4-3, 2-2) to punt at the end of the Jayhawks' possession that started the game.

On Kansas' first play of its next drive, Cole Ballard fumbled on a quarterback keeper and Texas Tech's David Bailey recovered the ball at the Kansas 36.

Five plays later, Morton completed a 21-yard touchdown pass to Terrance Carter Jr.

Following a successful two-point conversion run by Johncarlos Miller II, Texas Tech led 15-0 with 8:39 left in the first quarter.

Field goals by Upton Bellenfant of 25 yards and Stone Harrington of 40 yards built the lead to 21-0.

Kansas closed the first half by scoring on three of its last four possessions, including Jalon Daniels completing touchdown passes of 10 yards to Leshon Williams and 24 yards to Boden Groen.

Daniels completed 27 of 33 pass attempts for 228 yards with two touchdowns.

A 55-yard field goal by Laith Marjan as time expired cut Texas Tech's lead to 21-17 at halftime.

Texas Tech endured three possessions that ended with a punt or an interception thrown by Morton after taking the 21-0 lead early in the second quarter.

The Red Raiders returned to scoring on Hammond's 20-yard run with 7:28 left in the third quarter, increasing the lead to 28-17.
