The Frogs' Comeback: A Victory to Remember

In a thrilling display of grit and perseverance, TCU Horned Frogs clinched their 60th all-time victory over rival Baylor with a 42-36 win on Saturday. This match was not only a test of skill but also one of resilience, marked by three significant lightning delays that added nearly three hours to the game's already intense atmosphere. As they head to Morgantown for their next challenge, TCU is hoping to build on this momentum and secure their first conference road win of the season against West Virginia.

The Road Ahead: TCU’s Season Goals

Currently sitting at 5-2, TCU is looking to flip their fortunes on the road after a previous rocky outing at Kansas State. Their recent victory over Baylor demonstrated a revived commitment to their running game, spearheaded by standout performances from players like Kevorian Barnes, who rushed for over 100 yards and scored two touchdowns. With the offense finally performing optimally, coupled with a strong defense, TCU believes they have what it takes to confront their next adversaries.

Building a Winning Culture

This victory holds even greater significance for TCU beyond the numbers; it represents the hard work and resilience fostered under the guidance of their coaching staff. Offensive Coordinator Kendal Briles’ strategic shift towards a more committed running game has proven beneficial.
