TCU football isn’t having its best season, but this win will please fans

TCU football is currently on a 3-4 season, according to the latest Wire report, but a recent victory over the Kansas Jayhawks has fans feeling optimistic about their coach. In the Week 8 matchup at Amon G. Carter Stadium, the Horned Frogs started poorly, trailing the Jayhawks by 13 points at halftime. However, they fought back with 14 points in the third quarter, eventually taking a 22-16 lead into the final quarter.

Quarterback Jaden Craig, known for his dual threat abilities, was instrumental in TCU's comeback. Despite an inefficient passing performance, Craig secured a crucial 20-16 lead late in the fourth quarter with a remarkable touchdown run. Following the game, Craig finished with 13-of-29 completions for 141 passing yards and 87 rushing yards, punctuated by a touchdown on the ground.

Kansas quarterback Cole Ballard, who completed 20-of-35 passes for 285 yards, one touchdown, and one interception, failed to even out TCU's record of 2-3. The Horned Frogs have climbed higher in the Big 12 Conference, but Dykes is no stranger to pressure. Fans are relishing this win and are hopeful for TCU's future, as the season winds down.
