Hampton was unable to find an answer for Johnson County on Monday evening.
The Bulldogs dropped a 41-8 decision to the Longhorns at JC Campbell in a game that was resumed after being suspended on Friday night due to weather.
Hampton falls to 0-2 on the season, while the Longhorns improve to 2-0 on the year. The win snapped a five-game Hampton winning streak in the series.
Prior before the storm moved in on Friday, Johnson County took a 6-0 lead on the opening drive as Juan Mejia scored on a two-yard run. Before the ensuing kickoff, play was stopped due to weather, and the decision was made shortly after to suspend the game.
On Monday, the defenses traded possessions to open the game before Hampton took advantage of an errant snap on a Johnson County punt as Dominique Burleson jumped on the ball in the endzone for a Hampton touchdown.
