Texas Tech Quarterback Patrick Mahomes was named the Big 12 Offensive Player of the Week for the second consecutive time this season.

Mahomes, a sophomore from Whitehouse, Texas, earned his third such honor in his career after leading the Red Raiders to a 69-20 whipping of UTEP this past Saturday, completing 18 of 33 passes for 363 yards in the victory.

In his six starts for the Red Raiders, Mahomes has thrown for 2,214 yards and 22 touchdowns with only three interceptions.

Texas Tech will travel this Saturday for their first road game of the season against the Arkansas Razorbacks in a 6 p.m. game on ESPN 2. The Razorbacks defeated the Red Raiders last season in Lubbock 49-28.
