  "account": "Austin, Texas (AP) — Texas defensive end Colin Simmons received credit for an additional half-sack in Monday's game against Tennessee, raising his game total to 5 1/2 and establishing a new school record.\n\nIn Texas' 20-17 victory, Simmons dominated the line of scrimmage, contributing to the Longhorns' 10 1/2 sacks. During the fourth-quarter play, both Simmons and defensive lineman Hero Kanu tackled Tennessee quarterback Faizon Brandon for a sack. However, after the play, Simmons faced penalties for a vulgar celebration, mimicking using the restroom.\n\nSimmons' new school record, shared previously with Shane Dronett, was set in a game against Texas Tech in 1990, when Dronett also had five sacks.",
