FORT WORTH, Texas -- Patrick Mahomes and Texas Tech can certainly pile up the points and the yards. That doesnt always translate to wins.The Red Raiders are coming off a game in which Mahomes completed 52 of 88 passes and matched an FBS record with 734 yards passing, while breaking a record with 819 total yards. And they lost 66-59 .Texas Tech (3-4, 1/3 Big 12) takes a three-game losing skid into Saturdays game at TCU (4-3, 2-2), which has won the last two games in the series with some big numbers of its own.That home game last week against 16th-ranked Oklahoma was Texas Techs fourth loss since the start of last season when scoring more than 50 points. The first was 55-52 in the Big 12 opener last year against TCU, which scored on a fourth-down pass in the final minute.I usually get past losses, Mahomes said, referring to the last game against the Horned Frogs. But with that one ... you fought to the very end, and they got a tipped pass touchdown and it changed the whole dynamic of the season.Tech lost five of seven games after its 3-0 start last year.When the Red Raiders last visited Fort Worth two years ago, TCU set schl and Big 12 scoring records in an 82-27 victory . In their first meeting as Big 12 foes in 2012, Texas Tech won 56-53 in triple overtime.First-year Horned Frogs quarterback Kenny Hill is second in the Big 12 with 357.1 total yards a game -- 150 yards behind Mahomes national-leading 507.1 yards per game.But Hill has only 394 total yards combined the last two games. The 34-10 setback at West Virginia last week was TCUs most-lopsided loss in five Big 12 seasons.I dont think just the quarterback, I think we need to play with more swagger, TCU coach Gary Patterson said. Hes got to have more people to throw to. Young players hit the grind. ... Kenny, hes got a little bit of confidence back. Sometimes on throws its not always the quarterbacks fault. But hes the one that gets blamed.Some other things to know when the Horned Frogs and Red Raiders play:RETURN OF TURPSix weeks after injuring his left knee, TCU receiver and returner KaVontae Turpin is expected to be back for the Horned Frogs on Saturday. He got hurt Sept. 17 against Iowa State. He had gone into that game as the national leader with 236 all-purpose yards per game, and was TCUs leading receiver after seven catches in each of the first two games.STILL HEALINGMahomes still doesnt feel like he has the same zip on the ball as he did before spraining a joint in his throwing shoulder against Kansas on Sept. 29, exactly a month ago Saturday. But hes improving. Its actually feeling the best its felt so far since Ive had the injury, said Mahomes, who got hurt when tackled against the Jayhawks. Im going to keep rehabbing and keep getting out there and practicing and it will get better every day.KNOWING KENNYTexas Tech coach Kliff Kingsbury was previously the offensive crdinator at Texas A&M, where he was involved in the recruitment of Hill. Hes a guy who I thought was going to be a star, and hes heading that way, Kingsbury said. You watch him play, hes still learning their system, still getting comfortable, but the sky is the limit on his potential.BOTH SIDES OF BLOWOUTSTCU co-offensive crdinator Sonny Cumbie has been in some scoring history in the series. He was with the Horned Frogs for that 82-point game in 2014. The most points allowed by TCU under Patterson came 10 years before that, when Cumbie was the starting quarterback for the Red Raiders in a 70-35 win.MORE THAN BIG 12This is only the fifth game as Big 12 rivals for Texas Tech and TCU -- they are 2-2 in those games, 1-1 at each teams stadium. They were previously in the Southwest Conference together, and the Red Raiders lead the overall series 30-25-3.---More AP college ftball: tball.ap.org" target="_blank">www.collegeftball.ap.org Kris Bryant Jersey .

BOSTON -- Mkie Betts wasnt pleased with his recent swings at the plate.A little tweaking and he joined elite company in Red Sox history.Betts hit three home runs and drove in a career-best eight runs, joining Hall of Famer Ted Williams as the only Red Sox players in over 100 years with a pair of three-homer games in a season and powering Boston over the Arizona Diamondbacks 16-2 Sunday.These last couple of days I was off, Betts said. I basically just swung my way out of it.The Red Sox said Betts joined Williams, who had two three-homer games in 1957, as the only Red Sox players since 1913 to accomplish the feat.It makes you feel pretty gd anytime your names said with his. It means youve done something well, said Betts, who matched David Ortiz with the club lead with 26 homers.Dustin Pedroia had five hits and Jackie Bradley Jr. hit a two-run homer for Boston.Rick Porcello (16-3) became the first Red Sox pitcher in 70 years to open a season 12-0 at Fenway Park as Boston completed a three-game sweep of Arizona.Zack Greinke (11-4) was chased in the second inning.The guys swung the bats tremendous today against one of the best pitchers in the game, Porcello said. I threw strikes to get us back in the dugout as quick as possible.Betts had two chances to hit a record-tying fourth homer, but lined out to right and then grounded out in the eighth. The crowd chanted `Lets Go Mkie! before his final at-bat.His teammates wanted to see him become the 17th player in major league history with four homers in a game.They told me try and swing for it, Betts said.Betts other three-homer game came against Baltimore on May 31.What was billed as a marquee pitching matchup turned into a rout early when Greinke was tagged for three homers and nine runs in 1 2/3 innings.It just seemed like my stuff was really flat today, he said. Most times, guys dont hit my off-speed very gd, but they hit all my off-speed pitches today.Porcello allowed one run on three hits over seven innnings and became the first Boston pitcher since Dave B Ferriss to begin a year by winning his first 12 decisions in Fenway.ddddddddddddBetts two-run homer in the first cleared the Green Monster and made it 2-0.His second, a three-run shot into the first row of Monster seats, keyed a seven-run second.

They had won four straight before being swept.It was the second-most runs Greinke has allowed in his career.
