AUSTIN, Texas — Late in Texas’ 38-27 victory Friday over Baylor, the crowd that remained at Royal-Memorial Stadium offered a spontaneous salute.
“Bijan, Bijan, Bijan,” the crowd chanted, wanting one more touchdown from Bijan Robinson. Actually, it was the only thing that the junior running back didn’t deliver in what might have been his final home game.
Robinson ran for 179 yards and two touchdowns on 29 carries as No. 23 Texas (8-4, 6-3 Big 12) kept alive its hopes of a trip to the Big 12 championship game Dec. 3 at AT&T Stadium. Robinson’s performance included 150 yards on 22 carries in the second-half alone.
