AUSTIN, Texas, Oct. 10 (UPI) -- Jordan Shipley scored on a 75-yard punt return and caught 11 passes for 147 yards and another TD Saturday, keying a 38-14 victory by No. 2 Texas over Colorado.

The Longhorns (5-0, 2-0 Big 12) trailed at the half before pulling away as a result of two special teams scores and Earl Thomas's interception return for a touchdown in the second half.

Colt McCoy threw an interception and lost a fumble but completed 32-of-39 passes for 265 yards and a touchdown for Texas.

The Texas defense held Colorado (1-4, 0-1) to 127 total yards. Cody Hawkins threw two touchdowns and two interceptions before being pulled in the fourth quarter.
