LUBBOCK, Texas — Texas Tech coach Spike Dykes, who made a career out of upsetting rivals Texas and Texas A&M on the way to becoming the Red Raiders' winningest coach, announced his retirement after Saturday's 38-28 win against Oklahoma.

Dykes: Refires as Texas Tech's win-

The announcement came after a week of rumors that Tech already was hunting for a new coach.
"There really wasn't any pres sure put on me," Dykes, 61, said.
The Associated Press
Texas Tech went 6-5 this season and was 82-67-1 under Dykes, who joined the school in 1901.
Dykes offered no specific reason for his retirement, but said, "It was time for a bit of fresh air."
"This is something that I've been thinking about for a long time."
Raiders recently have gained notoriety for playing spoiler to Texas A&M, beating the Aggies this season 21-19 while they were ranked No. 5.
Dykes posted victories against Texas A&M six times, including three of the last four and also beat Texas six times. He led Tech to four straight bowl

victories this season against Texas A&M, Colorado and Oklahoma, the Red Raiders were upset by Missouri, Oklahoma State and North
Texas, and were embarrassed last week by Texas. Postseason losses like last year's 38-18 beating by Mississippi in the Independence Bowl also spawned a sense among many Texas Tech fans that the team wasn't living up to its potential.
Locally, Dykes was best known for his good-natured coaching style and friendly disposition.
"I think you coach because you love kids," Dykes had said previously. "And if you do that, every day is rewarding. That way you never get your priorities out of perspective."
Freshman leads Virginia Tech Penn State falls against 15th-ranked Michigan St
PHILADELPHIA — Michael Vick's fleet feet could have carried him all the way to New Orleans.
Vick, No. 2 Virginia Tech's dazzling freshman quarterback, ran for a season-high 134 yards and two touchdowns and passed for two more as the Hokies allowed a brief early lead by Temple before storming back for a 62-7
How fast is Vick?
"He's just a special player, and I'm glad he's with us," coach Frank Beamer said. "He's faster than the guys chasing him."
The victory clinched at least a share of the Big East Conference championship for the Hokies (10-0.
6-0). More importantly, it bolstered their bid for a berth in the national championship game at the Sugar Bowl in New Orleans.
With a win against No. 25 Boston College next Friday, they can finish the regular season undefeated for the first time since going 8-0-1 in 1954.
The Hokies can thank Vick for putting them in that position. He burned the Owls' porous defense with touchdown runs of 53 and 75 yards and got out of other jams by using his mobility to buy time outside the pocket.
Virginia Tech hopes their impressive win against Temple (2-8, 2-4) will strengthen their position in the Bowl Championship Series standings, where they are second.
Top-ranked Florida State all but clinched a spot in the Sugar Bowl, beating No. 3 Florida 30-23 Saturday.
The Hokies also avenged a 28-24 loss to Temple last year in Blacksburg when the Owls were a 35-point underdog.
Vick was a one-man wrecking crew against Temple's poor-tackling defense. He completed 7-of-10 passes for 171 yards and two long touchdowns to Andre Davis besides his two
His most impressive score came early in the third quarter. Under pressure in the pocket at his own 25, Vick eluded a couple tackles, reversed field, then raced 75 yards into the end zone giving the Hokies a 34-7 lead.
"Eighty-five to 95 percent of the other quarterbacks would have been sacked. He goes for two long touchdowns," Temple coach
Bobby Wallace said
Andre Kendrick added two rushing scores, and Larry Austin had a 31-yard interception return for the Hokies. Tech outgained Temple in total yardage (511-224) and first downs (20-10).
For the first five minutes at least, the Owls played like they could pull off another unlikely unset.
Off the opening kickoff, Scott led Temple's offense to a surprisingly easy scoring drive. Five plays after finding Jamal Wallace down the sideline for a 62-yard completion to the Tech 15, Marcus Godfrey rushed for a 2-yard score to give Temple a 7-1 lead 3:10 into the game.
On the ensuing drive, Vick got out of trouble in the pocket and dashed 53 yards untouched into the end zone for his first touchdown and tied the score at 7 with 10:49 left in the first quarter.
The Hokies were stopped on their next two drives deep in Temple territory, coming away with only Shayne Graham's field goal at the end of the first quarter.
After Austin's interception return, Vick threw two sloppy passes intercepted by Temple's Kevin Harvey on consecutive possessions, and it looked like the Owls may have another shot for an upset.
It only delayed the inevitable.
Vick found Davis for a 65-year touchdown pass after Harvey missed a tackle with 2:25 left in the first half. The two connected for a 30-yard touchdown that put Tech up 41-7 in the third quarter.

EAST LANSING, Mich. — It took Penn State three weeks to go from No. 2 in the country to No. 4 in the Big Ten Conference.
The 13th-ranked Nittany Lions lost their third-
straight game Saturday, falling to No. 15 Michigan State 35-28 after overcoming a 21-point halftime deficit.
T. J. Duckett ran for four touchdowns for the Spartans (9-2, 6-2). He carried 22 times for 159 yards, including the winning touchdown on an 11-vard run up the middle with 2
Penn State trailed 28-7 at the half, but dominated the third quarter, scoring 10 points drawing to within 28-17.
Eddie Drummond caught a 23-yard scoring pass from Kevin Thompson capping a 16-play, 86-yard scoring drive. Travis Forney then kicked a 21-yard field goal.
The Nittany Lions tied the score in the fourth quarter as Drummond caught a 12-yard touchdown pass, and Forney kicked a 30-yard field goal.
Michigan State safety Richard Newsome set up Duckett's winning touchdown, recovering a fumble by John Gilmore on the Penn State 39-yard line.
T. J. Turner made his second interception of the game, which stopped stop Penn State's next drive. But Paul Edinger missed a 38-yard field goal with 37 seconds left that would have put the game away.
But the Nittany Lions couldn't score as the Spartans held on.
"When you play a good football team, you've got to play with heart, but you've got to play with poise," said Penn State coach Joe Paterno. "We had the opportunity to win at the end, but we made a couple of mistakes."
