The Horned Frogs held their opponent to single digits in scoring for the sixth time in nine games this season as TCU beat down a bad UNLV team 48-6 last night in Las Vegas. I don’t have a lot of time, so let’s break this one down quickly…
- Andy Dalton was 16-of-23 for 252 yards and 2 TD’s. He also had 30 yards and a touchdown on the ground as well. It was a typical day for Dalton.
- Colin Jones’ 30-yard second-quarter interception return for a touchdown was TCU’s third pick returned for a score this season.
- I'm starting to sound like a broken record, but the defense was outstanding once again. TCU limited UNLV to 197 yards of total offense. The Horned Frogs have held their opponent to fewer than 200 yards five times this season, including four times in its five MWC contests.
- TCU allowed 128 yards passing and remains the only team in the nation to surrender less than 200 yards in the air in every game this season.
- Josh Boyce continues to impress me. Boyce had a 54 yard touchdown reception which is his fourth of the season.
- Tank Carder and Colin Jones both tied a career-high in tackles. Carder had a team-best 10 stops, while Jones totaled nine tackles.
- What is going on with all the fumble??? Matthew Tucker lost one and probably should have lost another. Ed Wesley fumbled once and Dalton let the ball hit the ground. This problem HAS to be resolved by next weekend.
I don’t know if I am going to be able to make it through this week. The anticipation for Utah is already building. As you saw in my earlier post, ESPN College Gameday WILL be in Salt Lake City for the game, and it should be a great one! Utah looked very beatable against Air Force.
Go Frogs!!!
