On November 11, Texas Tech played Centenary to a scoreless tie in a game in which the two teams combined for an NCAA-record 77 punts.
[1] [8] at Centenary College Stadium, Shreveport, LA The game was played in a torrential downpour that led to muddy field conditions that prevented either team from effectively running or passing the ball.
To cope with the poor conditions, the teams resorted to punting in hopes of recovering a turnover on the other end of the field.
42 punts were returned, 19 went out of bounds, 10 were downed, 1 went into the end zone for a touchback, 4 were blocked, and 1 was fair caught.
[9] Texas Tech punter Charlie Calhoun punted the ball 36 times for 1,318 yards, both of which still stand as NCAA records.
