Jaden Craig led TCU to a 31-7 victory over Arkansas State on Saturday night, throwing for 337 yards and three touchdowns. The Red Frogs (2-1) overcame a sluggish performance, with Craig's 8-yard scoring pass to Ka Morreun Pimpton in the third quarter sealing a 99-yard drive and setting up the final score. Ed Small had a career-high 164 receiving yards, including a 17-yard touchdown, which kicked off the 99-yard drive that tied a 99-yarder against Kansas five years ago.

Trey Owens' 34-yard keeper on third-and-1 also played a crucial role in getting TCU inside the Red Wolves' 10-yard line. Arkansas State had a chance to extend the lead late in the game, but missed a fourth-down conversion. The Horned Frogs will face UCF next Saturday in their Big 12 opener, while Arkansas State travels to face Kennesaw State.
