4GENERALTCU is ready to embark upon its 112th year of Horned Frog football. Through all the years, with the ex cep tion of 1900, Purple ballclubs have com pet ed on an or ga nized basis. Even during the war years, as well as through the Great Depres sion, each fall Horned Frog football squads have done bat tle on the gridiron each fall.
4BEGINNINGSThe newfangled game of foot ball, created in the East, made a quiet and un of cial ap pear ance on the TCU campus (AddRan Col lege as it was then known and locat ed in Waco, Tex as, or nearby Thorp Spring) in the fall of 1896. It was then that sev er al of the col lege’s more ro bust stu dents, along with the en thu si as tic sup port of a cou ple of young “profs,” Addison Clark, Jr., and A.C. Easley, band ed to gether to form a team. Three games were ac tu al ly played that season ... all af ter Thanks giv ing. The first con test was an 86 vic to ry over Toby’s Busi ness College of Waco and the other two games were with the Houston Heavy weights, a town team.
By 1897 the new sport had progressed and AddRan enlisted its first coach, Joe J. Field, to direct the team. Field’s ballclub won three games that autumn, including a first victory over Texas A&M. The only loss was to the Univer si ty of Tex as, 1810. Those games with the Aggies and Longhorns launched foot ball feuds that car ried forth for 99 years. In 1899, the first game with Baylor was played to launch still an oth er tra di tion al ri val ry. By 1902, the name of the school had been changed to Texas Chris tian Uni versi ty. The nick name, “Horned Frogs,” had been added a few years earlier because “of the abun dance of those crea tures around campus.”
4TIAA ERAIn 1909, the uni ver si ty be came a member of the old TIAA (Tex as In ter col le giate Ath let ic As so ci a tion). Sev er al TCU teams re cord ed outstanding records, in clud ing the 1912 Horned Frog unit, which had an 81 mark with the lone loss coming against Tex as, a team that the Frogs did not beat until 1929.
In 1920, a postWorld War I team produced TCU’s best record to date, win ning nine straight games in the regular sea son. How ev er, a post season bowl (the Dixie Bowl) con test was booked in Fort Worth with the famed “Prayin’ Colonels” of Centre Col lege. That proved to be a mis take as Centre trounced the Pur ples, 637. L.R. (Dutch) Meyer was an end on that TCU grid elev en.
4SWC EARLY YEARSIn 1923, TCU was ad mit ted to the stillin fant Southwest Ath let ic Con fer ence, a league which was des tined to become the ma jor collegiate league of the South west. In their ini tial sea son in the SWC, the Horned Frogs played three games and posted a record of two wins and one loss.
Though a young mem ber of the SWC, over the next few years the Horned Frogs still of ered some ex cel lent re sults. In 1924, they won one and lost five games to fin ish in the cel lar for the only time until 1953. In 1929, under the late Francis Schmidt, TCU claimed its first SWC title. Led by a bril liant young quar ter back, Howard Grubbs, who later became the ex ec u tive sec re tary of the South west Conference and the Horned Frogs’ first in a line of great passers, TCU won four straight league games.
The Frogs clinched their first ti tle with a 77 tie against SMU in the final contest of ‘29. During Schmidt’s re gime, which last ed through the 1933 campaign, the Frogs were dou ble tough. They fin ished third in 1930, sec ond in ‘31 and won the SWC title again in 1932 with a perfect 60 record. It was the first time that one Southwest Con fer ence team had de feat ed all the oth ers, since a round robin had not been played in any of the previous seasons.
4THE 1970sThe decade of the 1970s was, for the most part, one of disappointment for the fans of TCU football. Fred Taylor, the suc ces sor to Abe Martin in 1966, guided Horned Frog teams through four seasons, with the best record being a modest 46. Jim Pittman was hired from a successful bowl campaign at Tulane, but tragedy struck mid way through the 1971 season when Pittman was felled by a fatal heart attack during the Baylor game. His chief aide, Billy Tohill, took over and pi lot ed TCU through the 1973 sea son. Then another former Frog great, Jim Shofner, returned from the NFL and led the Horned Frogs until 1977. The coaching door then swung open for F. A. Dry, who brought some impressive credentials from Tulsa. Dry’s TCU teams became known for hardball defense and im pres sive aerial dis plays, but a 38 mark in 1982 proved to be Dry’s best in six seasons and yet another change of direction was mandated.
Similarly, the increase of 11,062 folks per game (a 42.5 percent increase) was one of the nation’s best in 1994. Sullivan resigned in November 1997 after six seasons at the Horned Frog grid helm.
4THE WAC YEARSTCU Football in 1996 was almost a doubledose of euphoria. Not only did it mark the 100thyear celebration for the sport, but the University ofcially became a new
member of the expanded Western Athletic Conference as well. The Horned Frog program joined teams from Rice, SMU and Tulsa to form Quadrant 1 of the Mountain Division. Quadrant 2 members were Air Force, UNLV, Colorado State and Wyoming. Pacific Division members of the WAC were New Mexico, UTEP, BYU, along with Fresno State, San Jose State, Hawai’i and San Diego State.
4CONFERENCE USAThe Frogs took on a new look in 2001 as they made the move into Conference USA. The 11member football league included Army, Cincinnati, East Carolina, Houston, Louisville, Memphis, Southern Miss, South Florida, Tulane and UAB. Despite the change in leagues, TCU continued its strong run with a school record six consecutive bowl game appearances and backtoback top 25 finishes for the first time since the 1950s.
4MOUNTAIN WEST CONFERENCETCU began Mountain West Conference play in 2005 and immediately posted a recordbreaking campaign.The Frogs, picked to finish sixth, went 80 in their debut season to claim their first outright conference title since 1958. TCU became just the third team in MWC history to go undefeated and the first to be 80. The Frogs are 186 in their opening three seasons of MWC play, which ranks second among all league teams.
TCU FOOTBALL THROUGH THE AGES
Slingin’ Sammy Baugh (No. 45) led TCU to its first of two national championships in the 1930s under Head Coach Dutch Meyer.

4DUTCH MEYER ERAIn 1934, with Schmidt being lured to Ohio State, Leo R. (Dutch) Meyer be came the Horned Frog grid coach. For the next 19 years, Meyer turned out top teams and pro duced a bevy of in di vid u al standouts, in clud ing Sammy Baugh, Davey O’Brien, Ki Aldrich, Darrell Lester and many oth ers.During Baugh’s college days, the Frogs won 12, lost one in 1935; and won nine, lost two and tied a pair in 1936. As a junior, Baugh led TCU to a 32 victory in the Sugar Bowl and a national title, but was never able to help the Frogs claim a SWC title.
His successor, Davey O’Brien, took over lead er ship of the Frogs for the 1937 and 1938 sea sons, and during his senior year, paced the Purples to their best record in history. That mag nifi cent ‘38 ballclub was con sid ered one of the South west Con fer ence’s finest some 50 years later. That fall, Meyer’s Horned Frogs rolled to 11 straight wins, includ ing a 157 tri umph over Carnegie Tech in the Sugar Bowl. The club outscored its op po nents – 269 to 60 – and never found it self be hind, ex cept briefly in the Sugar Bowl en coun ter. After the Sugar Bowl, the Frogs were crowned national cham pi ons.
In 1941, TCU fin ished a solid sec ond place in the SWC and won another cham pi on ship in ‘44. The Dutchman’s final league crown came in 1951, two years be fore he became fulltime athletics di rec tor (Meyer would later re tire as TCU’s A.D. in 1963).
4ABE MARTIN ERAWhen Meyer retired from coaching in 1953, his backfield as sis tant, Othol (Abe) Mar tin, took over the coach ing reins. Abe in stalled the popular Tformation, and in just three short years had found the cham pi on ship for mula. His 1955 TCU ballclub, led by AllAmer i can Jim Swink, waltzed to nine vic to ries in 10 games, the only loss be ing to Tex as A&M. In 1958, Martin found the vic to ry for mu la again with good quarterbacking and defense. In 1959, the Frogs disproved the crit ics to tie Texas and Ar kan sas for the crown, post ing a 51 league record.
During his 14year re gime, Mar tin com piled a 76647 mark in Frogland, di rect ed the Pur ples to five postseason bowl games, and pro duced seven AllAmer i cans.
4JIM WACkER ERAFrom 1983 through 1991, Horned Frog grid fortunes were in the hands of former NCAA Division II coach ing leg end Jim Wacker, who left opulent marks as well as two pairs of national cham pi on ship trophies at both South west Texas State and Texas Lutheran. Wacker’s first cam paign at TCU produced only 182 re sults, but he steered the Horned Frogs to a dramatic 84 turn around in 1984 en route to a Blue b on net Bowl date. Several na tion al, as well as Southwest Conference Coach of the Year honors, ul ti mate ly were awarded to the bubbly Wacker. However, an NCAA probation for discovered infractions in 1985 afected the Frogs’ rise over the next several sea sons.
4PAT SULLIvAN ERAOn January 2, 1992, Pat Sullivan was introduced as the 27th head coach in TCU football history. Sullivan prob ably is best re mem bered as a college quarterbacking great at Au burn, where he won the Heisman Trophy in 1971. Sullivan instilled confidence along with an ap pre ci a tion for selfdiscipline into the TCU grid makeup during his initial cam paign with the Horned Frogs.
Though the Sullivan influence on TCU’s program was obvious from the outset, tangible proof of his impact in Frogland became somewhat pronounced during 1994. For the Horned Frog faithful it was a campaign of sweet memories and bona fide successes beginning in early fall with the ofcial dedication of TCU’s Walsh Complex, an ultraimpressive athletic training and weightconditioning center. Powered by the most prolific ofense in the Southwest Conference, an attack spearheaded by quarterback Max Knake and tailback Andre Davis, the Frogs fashioned a 74 regularseason mark. En route, they captured a share of the school’s ninth SWC football championship, along with an invitation to the Poulan/WeedEater Independence Bowl in Shreveport, La.
Further, thanks largely to Fort Worth’s Committee of 100, TCU’s homegame attendance records were shattered. The pergame home average of 37,174 far exceeded any previous mark.

4DENNIS FRANCHIONE ERAIn three seasons under Dennis Franchione, the TCU football program took a giant leap forward. In his first season, Fran led the Frogs to a 75 record, which included an upset win over USC in the Sun Bowl.
The Frogs, who were 110 in 1997 under Pat Sullivan, tied Louisville for the biggest turnaround in the country with the sixwin improvement in 1998. Although many believed the Frogs stood no chance, Franchione guided the Frogs to a 2819 win over the vaunted Trojans. The victory was the first bowl win since 1957, when TCU defeated Syracuse in the Cotton Bowl.
Then in 1999, TCU claimed a share of the WAC title, earning a trip to the inaugural Mobile Alabama Bowl, where TCU knocked of East Carolina, 2814. Tailback LaDainian Tomlinson led the country in rushing in 1999, averaging over 168 yards per game for a season total of 1,850 yards.The Frogs came back with one of the best seasons in school history as the new millennium got underway. Moving as high in the polls as No. 9 and carrying the nation’s longest winning streak for a stretch, the Frogs put together a 102 campaign. Tomlinson again led the nation in rushing, this time with over 2,000 yards, en route to the Doak Walker Award. Following the season he was the fifth player selected in the NFL Draft.
4GARY PATTERSON ERAGary Patterson has posted four 10win seasons in the last six years, including three 11win campaigns since 2003. No other head coach in TCU history has reached 10 victories more than twice.
In just seven years, Patterson has a 6225 record to place third on the Horned Frogs’ career victory chart. His .713 winning percentage is fourth alltime among TCU coaches with more than 20 games under their belt. Patterson has had TCU ranked in the final Top 25 in four of his seven campaigns, including a No. 9 position in 2005 for the Frogs’ highest appearance in a seasonending poll since 1959.
In his tenure, Patterson has coached 75 AllConference selections, five AllAmericans, seven Freshman AllAmericans and one Academic AllAmerican. He has had 16 players drafted with 36 in NFL camps. Patterson was the 2002 Conference USA and 2005 Mountain West Conference Coach of the Year. He was also a 2003 finalist for Bobby Dodd and Eddie Robinson National Coach of the Year honors. He appeared on the 2006 Bobby Dodd Watch List.
TCU has garnered national attention in nearly every season. The 2003 Frogs won their opening 10 games in making a BCS run, while the 2005 squad opened the campaign with a 1710 victory at No. 5 Oklahoma. The Frogs are 51 versus Big 12 opponents the last two seasons. TCU has recorded victories in the 2002 Liberty Bowl, 2005 Houston Bowl, 2006 Poinsettia Bowl and 2007 Texas Bowl.

1929 (No. 7)TCU’s first Southwest Conference championship team, led by halfback Cy Leland, quarterback Howard Grubbs and AllAmerica guard Mike Brumbelow, finished the season undefeated (901) and was placed No. 7 in the nation in an unofcial AP ranking. The familiar AP poll of today was not originated until 1936.
1932 (No. 4)The undefeated Horned Frogs (1001) rose to true national prominence in ‘32 as they romped through the Southwest Conference race with ease and wound up No. 4 in the country in the final rankings of Illustrated Football magazine, the game’s leading authority of the era. Six members of the starting line, anchored by AllAmerica guard Johnny Vaught, were named allconference, as were both halfbacks, Blanard Spearman and Red Oliver. When Pittsburgh was invited to the Rose Bowl over TCU, the Frogs tried to arrange a postseason game against Tulane, another highly regarded team, but nothing came of it.
1933 (No. 9)Coach Francis Schmidt produced three teams in the nation’s Top 10 during his five seasons at TCU. The 1933 squad was the third. Paced by halfback Charlie Casper, the Frogs rolled to a 921 record but closed fast with stunning victories over Texas (300), Rice (263) and SMU (266). This finish impressed the syndicated sportswriter Grantland Rice so much he put TCU No. 9 in the final national rankings of his popular annual ratings service known as Grantland Rice’s Cities Service Football Guide.
1935 (No. 1 • NatioNal ChampioNs)As a TCU lineup produced two AllAmericans for the first time – quarterback Sammy Baugh and center Darrell Lester – the Christians reached the zenith of a national championship in the thrilling season of ‘35. The Frogs were tabbed No. 1 after the bowl games by the Williamson Rating System, the most authoritative poll in the land at the time. TCU wound up No. 1 after its 32 victory over powerful LSU in the Sugar Bowl. The Frogs’ only loss had been a narrow one (2014) to SMU in “The Game of the Century.” But when the Mustangs were upset by Stanford 70 in the Rose Bowl on New Year’s Day, the same afternoon that the Purple whipped LSU in New Orleans, Williamson crowned TCU No. 1.
1936 (No. 5)Injuries, freaky upsets and a couple of foulweather scoreless ties couldn’t keep Sammy Baugh from repeating as an AllAmerican and leading the Frogs to No. 5 in the nation in the final Williamson Rating System. Along the way, Baugh knocked of conference champion Arkansas, rudely upset the nation’s last remaining perfectrecord team, Santa Clara, and then won a duel with Marquette in the inaugural Cotton Bowl Classic. All of that left the Frogs with a 922 record.
1938 (No. 1 • NatioNal ChampioNs)A dream season. This incredible Frog team handily went 110, including the 157 victory over No. 5 Carnegie Tech in the Sugar Bowl. TCU captured every meaningful No. 1 ranking – AP, Williamson, Helms – turned out eight allconference players on various selections, and three AllAmericans, quarterback Davey O’Brien, center Ki Aldrich, and tackle I.B. Hale. To say nothing of O’Brien winning the Heisman, Maxwell and Camp trophies. As the true national champions, the Frogs outpolled three other undefeated elevens in ‘38 – Tennessee, Oklahoma and Duke.
1941 (No. 10)Quarterback cohorts Kyle Gillespie and Emery Nix led the Frogs to a 721 record with the aid of AllAmerica tackle Derrell Palmer and allconference end Bruce Alford. Their only losses were to Top 10 teams, No. 6 Fordham and No. 9 Texas A&M. But later, Nix sparked TCU to a memorable 147 upset of No. 1ranked Texas, the Life century team. Ultimately, at the end of the regular season, the Williamson Rating System thought highly enough of the Frogs to rank them No. 10 in the nation. They became the first Southwest Conference team to play in the Orange Bowl, where they lost a wild one to Georgia, 4026.
1951 (No. 10)Sophomore Ray McKown, running and passing out of the old Dutch Meyer spread formation, carried the Frogs to their most surprising conference title with only a 64 record. Still, these Frogs were ranked No. 10 in the nation in the UPI poll at the season’s end. In so doing, McKown earned AllAmerica honors, as did Keith Flowers and tackle Doug Conaway. In the Cotton Bowl game, TCU outgained Bear Bryant’s Kentucky team by a huge margin, but saw no fewer than five drives stall inside Kentucky’s 10yard line, and were outscored 207.
1955 (No. 5) Jim Swink set rushing and scoring records galore as the Frogs loitered the whole season among the nation’s elite and won the Southwest Conference championship. In the end, with a 91 regular season record, they were ranked No. 3 by the Litkenhouse System, No. 5 by UPI, and No. 6 by AP. Swink was a unanimous AllAmerica halfback and runnerup for the Heisman Trophy and center Hugh Pitts also made AllAmerica.
1958 (No. 9) The Frogs breezed to an 82 record and the conference crown behind the passing of Hunter Enis, the running of Jack Spikes and Marvin Lasater, and the line play of AllAmerica tackle Don Floyd. TCU was ranked No. 9 in the final UPI poll and No. 10 by the AP. In the Cotton Bowl game they fought undefeated and No. 6ranked Air Force to a 00 tie.
1959 (No. 7) These Frogs basically put three AllAmericas on the field with fullback Jack Spikes and tackles Don Floyd, a repeat selection, and Bob Lilly, who would be a unanimous choice in ‘60. They bruised their way to another 82 record, tying Texas and Arkansas for the conference title. When all the votes were in from the final polls, TCU was ranked No. 7 by AP and No. 8 by UPI.
2000 (No. 18 ESPN/USA TODAY COACHES; No. 21 AP) LaDainian Tomlinson became one of college football’s greatest ball carriers – only the second player in history to rush for more than 2,000 yards in a season and more than 5,000 in a career. Behind “LT,” the Frogs sped to a 102 season record and the WAC championship. This performance enticed the Dunkel Index, one of the eight selectors for the Bowl Championship Series, to rate the Frogs No. 7 in the nation, their highest ranking in 40 seasons.
2002 (No. 22 ESPN/USA TODAY COACHES; No. 23 AP) After a seasonopening overtime loss at Cincinnati, the Frogs reeled of 10 wins in their next 11 games. The Frogs gained a share of the Conference USA title and posted an AXA Liberty Bowl win over Colorado State. Linebacker LaMarcus McDonald, the league’s Defensive Player of the Year, led a squad that ranked first in the nation in both total defense and in stopping the run.
2003 (No. 24 ESPN/USA TODAY COACHES; No. 25 AP) The Frogs reeled of 10 straight wins to open the season, climbing as high as number 10 in the national rankings. Their success, which included five threepoint wins, caught the attention of the nation, as they moved to sixth in the BCS Standings, the highest ranking ever for a school from a nonBCS conference. A late season loss at Southern Miss kept the Frogs from winning their second straight conference title. The Horned Frogs hosted nationallyranked Boise State in the inaugural PlainsCapital Fort Worth Bowl and dropped an exciting 3431 contest. Nick Browne was the Conference USA Special Teams Player of the Year and earned AllAmerica accolades. Defensive end Bo Schobel set a school record for sacks while earning secondteam AllAmerica honors from the Associated Press. Head coach Gary Patterson was one of three finalists for the Eddie Robinson Coach of the Year honors.
2005 (No. 9 USA TODAY COACHES; No. 11 AP) TCU (111, 80) closed the season ranked ninth by USA Today for its highest appearance in a final poll since finishing seventh in the 1959 campaign. The Frogs, one of just seven teams in the nation with 11 wins, concluded the year with 10 straight victories. It was the secondlongest winning streak in the nation behind only national champion Texas (20). TCU opened and closed 2005 with victories over Big 12 bowl teams, winning at Oklahoma and then defeating Iowa State. Overall, the Frogs were 50 against bowl teams. TCU led the nation in interceptions (26), takeaways (40) and turnover margin (1.75, +21). TCU set a singleseason school record with 50 touchdowns, while its 398 points scored ranked second in Frog history. TCU, in its first season of Mountain West Conference play, became just the third team in league history to post an undefeated record (80). In the process, TCU captured its first outright league championship since sweeping through the Southwest Conference en route to the 1938 national title. TCU paced the Mountain West Conference with 18 allconference selections with Cory Rodgers a consensus AllAmerican at kick returner. Gary Patterson was the MWC Coach of the Year with tailback Aaron Brown named Freshman of the Year. Linebacker Jason Phillips and defensive end Tommy Blake were Freshman and Sophomore AllAmericans, respectively. Phillips, a secondteam selection, became the first freshman defensive player in league history to be first or secondteam AllMWC.
2006 (No. 21 USA TODAY COACHES; No. 22 AP) TCU (112, 62) posted its fourth 10win season in the last five years. The Frogs became one of only five teams in the nation to reach 11 victories three times in the last four campaigns. With victories over Baylor and Texas Tech, TCU improved to 40 against Big 12 opponents in the last two seasons and 81 in its past nine games against teams from BCS conferences. The Frogs closed the year by winning their final eight games for the fourthlongest current streak in the nation. Earlier in the season, in a carryover from 2005, TCU won 13 in a row for the longest winning streak in the country. The Frogs finished the campaign ranked 21st by the Associated Press and 22nd in the USA Today poll. It represented the fifth time in the past seven years that TCU closed the season in the top 25. The Frogs ranked second nationally in total defense (234.9 yards per game) and run defense (60.8 yards per game) while placing third in scoring defense (12.3 points per game). TCU was one of three teams nationally to not allow a 100yard rushing game by an opposing running back. Ofensively, the Frogs were ninth nationally in rushing (194.6 yards per game) and 17th in total ofense (408.5 yards per game). Thirteen Frogs combined for a total of 14 AllMWC selections. Safety Brian Bonner was a firstteam pick as a return specialist and a secondteam choice on defense. TCU placed four players on the firstteam defense, including unanimous selection Tommy Blake at defensive end.

1935NATIONAL CHAMPIONSHIPS
TCU was tabbed No. 1 in the nation by the Williamson System, the only rating organization to publish a list after the New Year’s Day Bowl contest, and ranked among the top five teams in the country by all rating services at the conclusion of the regular season. Featuring stars Sammy Baugh and Darrell Lester, the Frogs won 10 straight games before falling to SWC Champion SMU in the nexttolast game of the regular season. The Horned Frogs later defeated LSU, 32, in the 1936 Sugar Bowl. TCU ended the year with a record of 121.
This remarkable Frog combine was ranked No. 1 by all the rating systems. TCU’s only undefeated and untied team won the SWC Championship, then followed that feat with a Sugar Bowl victory over Carnegie Tech, 157. The 1938 lineup included three AllAmericans – Davey O’Brien, who was the first footballer to win the Walter Camp, Heisman and Maxwell trophies the same year, plus Ki Aldrich and I.B. Hale.

4THE IRON SkILLET: TCU-SMU SERIES
During the postWorld War II college football boom, the TCU and SMU student body created a traveling trophy called the Iron Skillet that was presented to the winner of the annual football game between the rivals. The tradition eventually died, and the skillet was lost. In 1993, the tradition was revived as SMU defeated TCU, 2115. The skillet is presented to the winning team after each game.

NEW ORLEANS, La. — Bernie Moore, coach of the LSU foot ball team, was skep ti cal that TCU’s 3 to 2 vic to ry in the Sug ar Bowl game was a con clu sive test of the squads. “My con clu sion of the game was that the slippery field elim i nat ed at least 30 percent of the ofensive power of both teams,” he said. Dutch Meyer, coach of TCU, said he thought the contest before a capacity crowd of 35,000 was the “finest I’ve ever seen played in the rain.”
Yesterday’s “baseball score” game was a thriller which kept the spectators in their seats despite a slow rain which fell through out the second half ... LSU scored in the sec ond quarter after passes and runs brought the ball to the TCU twoinch line where it changed hands on downs. When (Sammy) Baugh at tempt ed to pass from behind the goal line he stepped over the end zone, automatically giving LSU a safety for a twopoint lead. The Texans came back in the same period to recover a Louisiana fumble on the Loui si ana 40 and pushed down to the LSU 16. Taldon Manton then kicked a field goal from the Tiger 26. From that point on the game was a battle of mighty defensives..
TCU played most of the game minus the services of three of her brightest stars — Left Halfback George Kline, AllAmerican Cen ter Darrell Lester and Halfback Rex Clark ... Clark played only one down and that was by the cour te sy of Coach Meyer who wanted the injured senior star to be able to say he played in the 1936 Sugar Bowl game ... Baugh made the longest run of the day — a 44yard gallop.

DALLAS — With a slingback attack that whipped over a field goal and two touch downs in the first 25 min utes of play and with a stur dy de fense that piled up the Marquette Golden Av a lanche, TCU cap tured a spectacular football game here this New Year’s Day. The score in the Cotton Bowl classic was 166.
So sudden, sharp and dazzling was the sweep of action of the battle that 15,000 spec ta tors, who braved threat en ing weather, forgot the gray gloom of the afternoon. Led by Sammy Baugh, who outpassed and outplayed “Buzz” Buivid to cinch his claim to the title of the greatest passer of the season, the Texans uncorked an ofense that flared into long gains both on the ground and in the air. Although it was Baugh who paced the attack and won the attention of the crowd, it was L.D. Meyer who did the real damage..
He scored all of TCU’s 16 points. He kicked a 33yard field goal for the first three points in the opening minutes. Before the first quarter had ended, Meyer col lab o rat ed with Sambo on a 55yard passandrun gain for the first Frog TD, and in the second quarter he took an 18yard heave from Vic Mont gom ery for the last score. Meyer even converted after the first touchdown.
A 60yard punt return by Art Guepe in the first quarter accounted for all of Marquette’s points.

1937 COTTON BOWLTCU 16, Marquette 6 ∙ Jan. 1, 1937
NEW ORLEANS, La. — It was with pow er, passes and kick ing that the Chris tians made the two touch downs and one field goal that enabled them to win, 157. Carnegie’s most consistent method of at tack was a bristling, quickstart ing and hardhitting ofense, but it was with a brilliant 38yard pass in the last seconds of the first half that the Skibos scored ... The second half started with the Pittsburghers lead ing, 76. The first time they got possession of the hoghide, the Frogs proved irresistible. Moving with giant strides, they went 80 yards and a touchdown on five plays.
TCU punted one time. That fact alone indicates ac cu rate ly how fearfully efective was the groundgain ing ma neuvers of the big whiteshirted representatives ... The one punt figured in making TCU’s first touchdown ... When the Skibos punted out, the TCU regulars took over and went 48 yards on 11 plays to take a 60 lead ...
Carnegie took the next kickof and went to town with big, fast and tough George Muha doing most of the dirty work ... Earl Clark in ter cept ed a pass and ran 25 yards to the Carnegie 35 yardline, but Durward Horner, a TCU end, had been ofsides so the play was called back ... It was on fourth down of this series of plays that Petey Moroz cut loose with his long fine pass for the Carnegie touchdown ...
The third quar ter (Davey) O’Brien passed to Horner down the middle ... The big end caught the ball between two Skibos, but evaded both of them and ran 24 yards across the goal line.

BOWL HISTORY
MIAMI, Fla. — In the wildest, weird est football battle ever waged in this cor ner of the country, the Geor gia Bull dogs outscored the cou rageous TCU Horned Frogs 4026 ... Coach Wally Butts’ fast team, wellequipped on ground and in the air, almost chased the Frogs of the field for 35 minutes... The score mounted to 407 with only a few minutes played in the second half.
But the Frogs are not quitters ... Everything was against them. They couldn’t hold the enemy, they couldn’t move them selves and they were battered and weary from their emptyhanded eforts. But there was too much tradition behind those purple shirts. Sud den ly, almost as if a fresh wind had blown into the stadium, the tide turned. They knocked over three touch downs in rapid order. They turned back every Georgia thrust. The great come back in the last 25 minutes saved the Frogs from humiliation.
Bruce Alford was the Frog star ... He blocked a punt, he made two great catches for touch downs... After the rest period, Texas sup port ers hoped for a rally. But Georgia stepped out and banged 80 yards for still another touchdown that promised to make it a rout ... From that moment to the final gun it was the Bulldogs who held on and the Frogs who ripped.

DALLAS — With speed, spirit and spiraling passes, the Cow boys of Okla ho ma A&M complete ly outclassed the TCU Horned Frogs in the ninth annual Cot ton Bowl football game here this crys tal clear New Year’s af ter noon to win, 340. Except for the second quarter when they staved of repeated threats, the Frogs were never able to cope with the doublepronged attack ... The first touch down, scored in the fifth minute, climaxed a 59yard advance. The second whirled 61 yards, the third 62 yards, the fourth 40 yards and the fifth 66 yards .
The Frogs moved on the ground sev er al times when in their own territory, but after cross ing the 50yard line they were always thwarted by the bulling tactics of the burly Cowboy line ... Only once did the Frogs get inside the A&M 35yard line and that was on a pass in ter cep tion.
Bob Ruf was the only TCU back who was able to gain with any consistency, although Jesse Mason did some good work for a short time.
Coach Dutch Meyer tried all kinds of defenses against the Aggies, including a sevenman line which moved fullback Cox into the line. None of them worked for more than a few minutes at a time. The Aggies were too good in too many diferent ways.

MEMPHIS, Tenn. — Trail ing a hardtrying TCU team by nine points, the great Charley Conerly sud den ly soared to the dra mat ic heights of football throw ing expected of him. In just five min utes his rifle arm ac count ed for two touch downs as the Con fed er ates bested the Chris tians, 139, in the first Delta Bowl game.
In the closing minutes of the third period, Conerly launched a passing flurry that carried exactly 80 yards in eight plays ... The Frogs, still going strong, marched right back to the Rebel 37 where an intercepted pass sat Conerly up in business again. This time he threw only two passes...and they ate up just 63 yards to win the ball game.
In more ways than one, it was a tough game for the Frogs to lose... But they fumbled badly, losing the ball twice at crucial moments.
There were nine minutes yet to play and the Frogs gave the enemy fans a heart attack by holding the leather. Just six of them from their oneyard line, where Otis Kelvey was dropped on the kickof, the Chris tians powered right up field for 59 yards... But the last threat died when Knox’s pass was batted up and intercepted by the Ole Miss linebacker on the Reb 38.

DALLAS — TCU, distress ing ly flat except for one mag nifi cent minuteandhalf surge late in the third quarter, suc ceed ed only in making it a masterpiece of frustration. And so the fourtimesbeat en Wild cats from the Blue grass State thorough ly trounced the South west Con fer ence cham pi ons before a capacity throng of 75,349 ... 207. Ken tucky scored on two surges of 52 and 57 yards in the first and second quarters to post its 130 halftime lead.
Frogs, who had bogged down once on the four, wasted another 59yard push to the 24 early in the second quarter. Here, Clark in ter cept ed a Mal Fowler pass returned to the Kentucky 43 and the Wildcats tromped on from here for 57 yards and another touch down in 11 plays ... TCU made its 48yard move to the five after this and came back later in the quarter with its 51yard march to the one all for nothing ... (Gilbert) Bartosh drew his first chance of the game ... Here Bartosh called a direct snap — back Bobby Jack Floyd went 43 yards for touchdown on the longest run of the day.
Against the wind in the fourth Bartosh guided the Frogs 40 yards ... The TCU com mand sent in McKown to punt and he obliged with his neat kickout on the 8. But here, where holding ’em was imperative for TCU, Tom Fillion broke loose for 17 yards on a thirddownseventogoplay ... Ken tucky held the ball, put TCU in the hole with the kick and Bartosh was spilled for losses.

DALLAS — The Uni versi ty of Mis sis sip pi Rebels, cham pi ons of the Southeast ern Con fer ence, spot ted the TCU Horned Frogs, cham pi ons of the South west Con fer ence, 13 points in the 20th annual Cotton Bowl football game be fore 75,000 spectators here this warm and sun ny Mon day af ter noon and then swung back to win by the margin of a single point, 1413 ... (TCU) ac tu al ly lost the game for being in motion on a conversion efort.
They made the 14th point on the first try, but because a player was in motion, they had to try again from five yards farther back, and missed. They probably lost the game on the opening kickof when quarterback Chuck Curtis made the mistake of re ceiv ing and run ning with the ball. He was so badly injured when tackled that he never returned to action ... In spite of the handicap, the Horned Frogs scored a touch down in the first quarter and count ed in the second to lead 130 before the Rebels got their first touchdown to make it 137 at the half ... Mississippi won the game in the 11th minute of the fourth quarter ... Billy Lott scored on a fiveyard gallop around his right wing. The Rebs’ winning move traveled exactly the same distance as their first touchdown pa rade: 66 yards ... The Frogs went 44 and 75 yards for their touch downs.

DALLAS — Harold Pollard’s fourforfour con ver sions and the block ing of Syr a cuse’s third pointaf tertouchdown at tempt by (Chico) Mendoza pro duced a 2827 Cotton Bowl victory for TCU after 18 years of wait ing. The Frogs had dropped five suc ces sive bowl appear anc es and had not recorded a postseason triumph since 1939. It was a moving of en sive show all the way with the TCU passing providing a balance Syracuse couldn’t stop and the Saltine Warriors riding pow er ful ly on a running game spear head ed by the AllAmerica halfback, Jim Brown. He gained 132 yards and was voted the game’s out stand ing back. The Frogs’ AllAmerican tackle, Norman Hamilton, was the one defender who came nearest to stop ping Brown con sis tent ly and he was chosen as the game’s outstand ing lineman.
Syr a cuse scored in the last two min utes to give the game its touch of such hairbreadth close ness. For much of the afternoon it was TCU’s game and a couple of times seemed on the verge of turning decisive.
There was a unique twist to the firsthalf scoring in that each team intercepted passes and then drove 70 yards to score and each recovered fumbles and pushed out short yardage for the second touchdowns.

DALLAS — The gentle men operating the scoreboard had the easiest occupation in all land as the South west Con fer ence champions (TCU) and the future gener als (Air Force Academy) from Col o rado Springs played the sec ond 00 dead lock in the 23year history of the New Year’s Day clas sic ... It was the fourth tie game ever unreeled before a Cotton Bowl assemblage ... It was a dis ap point ing final for both clubs. The Horned Frogs took the field bearing an 82 record. The Falcons were unbeaten in 10 games and had their season immaculate but for a tie with Iowa. The Frogs fum bled the ball on eight occasions and on three of these wasted possession. One of these came early in the final period and surely tried the composure of Coach Abe Martin as he saw the Falcons reclaim a bobble just eight steps from the Air Force Academy’s end zone.
The field, covered by tarpaulin during the snow fall earlier in the week, was damp and contributed to the uneasy handling of the ball. The visiting Falcons also had difculty retaining the sphere and lost control on three of their five fumbles. Jack Spikes attempted both of TCU’s field goals, the first early in the opening period ... The Airmen ofered their severest threat midway of the second quarter ... It was here that the Frog line gave its best performance, restraining the Silver and Blue on the six, the spot from where George Pupich missed a field goal.

HOUSTON — The Frogs were drowned, 237, by a dead ly sprin kle of Clemson pass es in a sev enminute pe ri od of the final quarter ... The sud den Clemson scoring flood washed away a 73 lead TCU carried into the fatal final period. A narrow margin, but one that, at the time, appeared enough to send the luckless Tigers down to their fourth straight bowl defeat ... Neither team had threat ened se rious ly after Clemson’s second quar ter 22yard field goal by Lon Armstrong, and TCU’s lone touch down, a 19yard pass from Jack Redding to Harry Moreland with 5:45 left in the first half. Clemson had completed only one gaining pass all af ter noon, that a 5yard throw from Tiger quar ter back Harvey White.
White must have spotted the silver lining in the gath er ing dark ness for Tiger hopes. He took plenty of time behind the mam moth line and arched a long, high shot toward right end Gary Barnes, racing past TCU’s Larry Dawson at the Frog 35. Armstrong added the extra point ... Two plays after the kickof, Armstrong las soed a pass from TCU quarter back Donald George ... From there, Lowndes Shingler, over whelm ing ly voted out stand ing back, came back to guide the Tigers for the final slap on the cheek to a proud TCU team which had gained wide respect as the class of the Southwest Con fer ence, winning seven games to finish in a 3way tie for the title.

EL PASO, Texas. — The Min ers sulked of the field with a 10point deficit at the in ter mission, but then pumped up Billy Stevens’ arm and Joe Cook’s foot and even tu al ly de flat ed the Frogs, 1312. Stevens, who gained sec ond rank among the nation’s passers this season, proved his stardom to TCU by racking up 208 yards on 21 pass completions, the most ever against an Abe Martin team. The skinny sophomore had only seven strikes in the first half as the ballcon trol ling Frogs rammed into a 100 lead. Stevens made the 31st annual post season game a vastly diferent story in the second half.
Stevens shot a 34yard touchdown pass to 165pound flanker Chuck Hughes and a star tling comeback was begun ... The Miners drove 70 yards for a tying 21yard field goal by Cook... Texas Western, a raging de fen sive team by this time, hopped on a TCU fumble at the Frog 29.
Cook kicked an 18yard threepointer FG four plays deep in the final period to boot the Miners into a 1310 cushion. TCU’s final two points were a gift. With 43 seconds left in the game ... The Miner quarterback raced back in his end zone for a safety ... The Frogs got their last chance. They could get only eight yards before the clock ran out.
Although Stevens won the great air race in the end, TCU’s senior quar ter back, Kent Nix got a head start.
David Smith hauling in Nix’s 11yard pass for the score ... The Frogs had another scoring op por tu ni ty in the first period ... (Bruce) Alford missed a kick from the 28.

HOUSTON — What had promise of being the ex cit ing fin ish to an “unbelievable” season turned clos er to a nightmare ... at least un til TCU’s dramatic, fourthquarter come back restored some de gree of re spect to the out come in the 25th edition of the Blue b on net Bowl. The final score was West Virginia 31, TCU 14. But for the Horned Frogs there were lots of dips and swerves along the way. For starters, a 21point West Virginia blitz during a 14minute span of the first half had some what of a sobering efect on the Purples. So did the loss of AllAmerican running back Kenneth Davis, to a knee injury, in the early moments of the postseason classic.
After being shoved up and down the field by the Mountaineers’ ofense (355 yards), while countering with little punch themselves (148 yards) during the first 30 minutes, the Horned Frogs did make a contest of it after the in ter mis sion, scoring the only touchdown of the second half while mount ing a couple of other drives which nearly resulted in points. Much of TCU’s second half turnaround was due to the passing arm of senior Anthony Gulley who finished with 150 yards passing in clud ing TD tosses to Dan Sharp and Keith Burnett. Senior re ceiv er James Maness caught five passes for 90 yards but was no match sta tis tical ly for the sixcatch, 152yard performance of WVU light ning bug.

The Frogs most ly slipped however, as they trudged and muddied them selves on the raindrenched field of In de pen dence Stadium... Some 27,242 fans – a ma jor i ty of them TCU sup port ers – withstood the temptation to stay home ... The view be came pains tak ing ly clear no mat ter the van tage point ... Vir gin ia proved too good for these up start Frogs and captured its first bowl tri umph in five attempts since 1987 with the 2010 victory ... “We can’t use the field as an excuse in any way,” TCU coach Pat Sullivan said. “I couldn’t be more proud of our foot ball team, but we weren’t quite good enough in a couple of ways.”
The 15thranked Cav a liers (93) dom i nat ed at the point of attack, where so many games will be won or lost ... The Frogs and their South west Con fer enceleading ofense, which av er aged 411.6 yards per game dur ing the regular season, sus tained nothing on this chilly, wet night. Vir gin ia, which en tered the con test with the na tion’s No. 1ranked defensive unit against the run, surrendered only 191 yards and 11 first downs to the Frogs.
The running of junior tailback Andre Davis, who rushed for 97 yards on 24 carries, failed to provide enough ofense on a night when (quarterback Max) Knake struggled. “The truth of it is I played terrible,” said Knake. “If I could have played better, there may have been a diferent outcome.”

1994 INDEPENDENCE BOWLVirginia 20, TCU 10 ∙ Dec. 28, 1994
EL PASO, Texas — With only six wins, many thought TCU was not worthy of a bowl appearance. But, the Horned Frogs proved their critics wrong in a big way.
Basil Mitchell rushed for 185 yards and two touchdowns on only 19 carries as TCU earned its first bowl victory in 41 years with a 2819 win over USC in the 65th Sun Bowl.
Quarterback Patrick Batteaux added 94 yards and two scores for TCU, which recorded its first postseason win since defeating Syracuse in the 1957 Cotton Bowl.
TCU (75) dominated the line of scrimmage, rushing for 314 yards while holding USC to a Sun Bowl record minus23, breaking by two yards the mark set by Florida State in 1951. The Trojans (85) also posted the lowest rushing total in school history, eclipsing the previous record of minus11 yards against Iowa in 1976.
Mitchell fell just short of Charles Alexander’s Sun Bowl rushing record of 197 yards. He opened the scoring with a threeyard run 7:07 into the first quarter.

MOBILE, Ala. — LaDainian Tomlinson ran for 124 yards and two touchdowns to lead TCU to a 2814 victory over No. 20 East Carolina in the inaugural Mobile Alabama Bowl.
It was the second consecutive bowl upset for TCU (84). East Carolina (93) entered the game as sixpoint favorites. That didn’t bother the Horned Frogs, who completely shut down the Pirates’ running game, holding them to minus16 yards.
East Carolina went into the game focusing on stopping Tomlinson, whose 1,850 yards edged Heisman Trophy winner Ron Dayne for the NCAA Division I rushing title.
TCU, which alternated between quarterbacks Casey Printers and Patrick Batteaux, made it impossible for the Pirates to adjust.
Early in the first quarter, Printers gained seven yards on an option run to move TCU to the 2. Batteaux, a senior who runs the option better than Printers, came in on the next play and pitched the ball to Tomlinson, who ran in for the touchdown. That tied the game at 7 and TCU slowly pulled away from there.
East Carolina, which couldn’t run the ball at all against TCU, had to go to the air in the second half.
It initially worked, but early in the fourth quarter, Russell Gary intercepted Garrard’s pass and returned it 32 yards for a touchdown. That gave TCU a 2814 lead with 14:04 to play.

TCU 28, East Carolina 14 ∙ Dec. 22, 1999MOBILE, Ala. — Jef Kelly’s 28yard touchdown pass to freshman Kenny Johnson with eight seconds left lifted Southern Miss to a 2821 victory over No. 13 TCU in the Mobile Alabama Bowl.
In the first major bowl game of the season, TCU tailback LaDainian Tomlinson ran for 118 yards, his lowest total of the season. The Heisman Trophy finalist carried 28 times and scored two TDs in the third quarter.
Southern Miss (84) got a second chance after a fourth missed field goal, and trusted their senior quarterback instead of the shaky kicking game.
With 33 seconds left, they took over at the TCU 43yard line after Mobile native Etric Pruitt got a hand on John Braziel’s punt. Kelly threw two incompletions, then scrambled 14 yards for a first down. On the next play, he lofted a perfect strike over the middle just above safety LaVar Veale’s outstretched arm, victimizing the nation’s top defense.
The Horned Frogs (102) endured a December coaching change and uncertainty over who would lead them into the game. In the end, former defensive coordinator Gary Patterson replaced Dennis Franchione on the sidelines. Franchione left for Alabama Dec. 1 and was initially expected to coach the bowl game. TCU ofcials decided late last week to allow the Patterson era to begin a season early.

Southern Miss 28, TCU 21 ∙ Dec. 20, 2000HOUSTON — Byron Jones intercepted three passes in his first start and Joe Weber scored two touchdowns, helping Texas A&M end a fourgame bowl losing streak with a 289 victory over TCU (66) in the galleryfurniture .com Bowl.
The Aggies (84) beat their former Southwest Conference rivals for the 24th straight time.
Weber, voted ofensive player of the game, broke a 77 secondquarter tie with a 2yard touchdown run and added a 14yard run that put the Aggies in control with 1:14 left in the third quarter.
TCU’s Casey Printers was intercepted four times.
Jones earned MVP honors and also was the defensive player of the game with three tackles. Starting in place of injured Sean Weston, Jones had only two brokenup passes on his defensive chart in 11 games before he returned his first interception 62 yards in the first quarter to the Frog 35.
The Aggies couldn’t score on that chance but Jones had a 15yard interception to the TCU 1yard line in the second quarter, setting up Mark Farris’ quarterback keeper for the score.
Charlie Owens scooped up a fumble by A&M running back Derek Farmer and returned it 89 yards for a TCU touchdown with four minutes left in the half for a 77 tie. It was the second longest fumble return in school history.

MEMPHIS, Tenn. — TCU figured out how to stop Colorado State standout Cecil Sapp after just two runs in the Liberty Bowl.
Sapp reeled of big gains of 59 and 25 yards on the Rams’ first two possessions, but had 22 yards the rest of the game, and TCU tailback Ricky Madison stole the show with 111 yards rushing and a touchdown as the Horned Frogs beat No. 23 Colorado State 173 Tuesday.
It was the Horned Frogs’ 500th victory in school history.
Madison ran for 107 of his yards in the rainy second half as TCU’s ofense came alive after a sloppy opening by both teams.
In the first half, the teams combined for three lost fumbles, two interceptions, a missed field goal and an unsuccessful faked field goal. Their sloppy play made for the lowest scoring first half of a Liberty Bowl since Penn State led Tulane 60 in 1979.
TCU (102) finally put together a sevenplay, 62yard scoring drive led by Lonta Hobbs in the closing minutes of the second quarter. The freshman ran for 39 yards in the drive, capped when Sean Stilley threw a 15yard touchdown pass to LaTarence Dunbar with 1:21 remaining to put TCU up 70 at the break.
The Rams were held to 89 yards rushing compared with 197 for TCU for their lowest total of the season. TCU also outgained Colorado State 338149.

TCU 17, Colorado State 3 ∙ Dec. 31, 2002FORT WORTH — Ryan Dinwiddie, who ended his career as the most efcient passer in college football, threw for 325 yards and three touchdowns to lead the No. 18 Broncos (131) to a 3431 win Tuesday night over No. 19 TCU in the inaugural Fort Worth Bowl.
Their bowl win on TCU’s campus wasn’t secured until sophomore Mike Wynn was well short on a 51yard field goal attempt, the first kick in his college career, with 7 seconds left.
TCU (112) had its schoolrecord 13game home winning streak snapped. The Frogs had been in contention for a Bowl Championship Series spot until their only regularseason loss Nov. 20 and then turned down an invitation to last week’s GMAC Bowl because it conflicted with exams.
Dinwiddie hit 19 of 35 passes with two interceptions, but his last touchdown was an 18yarder to Derek Schouman for the winning score with 12:43 left.
“I thought we beat them on both sides of the football. Three big plays beat us,” TCU coach Gary Patterson said. “There’s a reason they’ve won a lot of games.”

Boise State 34, TCU 31 ∙ Dec. 22, 2003HOUSTON — Peter LoCoco hit a 44yard field goal with 5:25 left in the game to put TCU on top 2724 and the Frogs’ defense held Iowa State in check on the ensuing drive for the victory at Reliant Stadium.
The TCU defense forced four Iowa State turnovers and Robert Merrill reached the century mark in rushing yards for the 10th time in his career as he ran for 109 yards on 11 carries with a touchdown to help lead the Frogs to the win.
TCU scored on its opening two possessions for a 140 lead just 6:36 into the contest. The two touchdowns came in a 1:55 span.
The Horned Frogs took the opening kickof and drove 80 yards in 12 plays, capped by a 20yard Merrill touchdown run.
On the second play of Iowa State’s ensuing possession, Jeremy Modkins forced a fumble that was recovered by Drew Coleman, giving the Frogs possession at the Cyclone 21. Three plays later, an Aaron Brown 7yard scoring run extended TCU’s lead to 140.
Iowa State scored 17 points in a 4:30 stretch of the second quarter to take a 1714 lead with 10:30 left in the first half.
The Cyclones’ third turnover of the first half, a fumble recovery by David Roach, led to the Frogs going back on top. The first snap of TCU’s ensuing series saw Jef Ballard connect on an 84yard touchdown pass to Michael DePriest to give the Frogs a 2117 lead with 4:05 left in the half.

SAN DIEGO — Penned in by a bunch of tough Horned Frogs, Garrett Wolfe had nowhere to run.
The national rushing leader was held to 28 yards, a whopping 130 below his average, and No. 25 TCU won a Poinsettia Bowl mismatch against Northern Illinois 377.
While Wolfe was repeatedly stufed by one of the nation’s best defenses, led by end Tommy Blake, Horned Frogs quarterback Jef Ballard ran for three touchdowns and threw for another.
Ballard looked like more of a running back as he scored on runs of 10, 1 and 6 yards. He threw a 6yard TD pass to tight end Brent Hecht and finished with 258 passing yards.
TCU’s Lonta Hobbs rushed for 114 yards and one TD.
Wolfe came in leading the nation with an average of 158.3 yards rushing and 178.9 allpurpose yards.
The Horned Frogs, though, were fourth nationally in run defense after allowing only 67.6 yards per game. TCU kept alive its string of not allowing a 100yard rusher, one of only four teams to do so this year.
Wolfe, who carried 20 times, came dangerously close to his careerlow of 24 yards set in his first game, the 2004 season opener. The Huskies had only five first downs and 60 yards of total ofense, compared to 23 first downs and 456 yards for TCU.

#25 TCU 37, No. Illinois 7 ∙ Dec. 19, 2006HOUSTON — Justin Watts had scored exactly one touchdown in his career at TCU before the Texas Bowl.
TD No. 2 marked the goahead touchdown early in the fourth quarter to help TCU to a 2013 win over Houston.
The junior wove through the defense and danced into the end zone for an 8yard touchdown run that made it 1710 and gave TCU (85) its first lead of the game against its old Southwest Conference rival.
He and Ryan Christian split carries against Houston (85) after starter Joseph Turner injured his knee in the first quarter and didn’t return.
Quarterback Andy Dalton also ran for a touchdown for TCU. Dalton was 21of30 for 249 yards with one interception. Watts and Christian combined for 88 yards rushing on 12 carries.
A 15yard leaping reception by Jimmy Young on third down kept the drive that ended in Watts’ touchdown going. Young outjumped Carson Blackmon to grab the ball and managed to keep his left leg in bounds as he landed.It was initially ruled an incomplete pass, but the call was overturned after a review by ofcials.
The Cougars had a chance to tie it with less than 30 seconds to play but Case Keenum’s pass sailed just beyond the fingertips of Jeron Harvey in the end zone. He had two more shots at the end zone, but the ball fell short on the first one and Chase Ortiz hit him as he threw the second one to end the game.

4TCU QB SHATTERS RECORD BOOkIt was a recordsetting day for TCU when the Horned Frogs stood toetotoe with the 1990 Houston Cougars, who had one of the most prolific ofenses ever in college football.
Houston eventually rolled past TCU, 5635, but not before countless records – school, conference and NCAA – were broken.
Frogs’ quarterback Matt Vogler helped account for nine of those shattered marks.
His 690 yards passing set new school, conference and NCAA records. He also helped the Frogs set the most yards ofense by a losing team (736). Along with his Cougar counterpart, David Klingler, Vogler helped set records for combined total ofense (1,563) and most yards passing by opposing teams (1,253) – both SWC and NCAA marks.
Vogler still holds three TCU records for passing – all were set in that 1990 game at The Astrodome.
The previous NCAA mark for passing yards in a game was held by Utah’s Scott Mitchell when he threw for 631 yards against Air Force in 1988. Houston’s Andre Ware held the conference record with 517yard performance against SMU in 1989.
Vogler connected with eight diferent receivers, but Steven Shipley carried most of the load. He finished with 11 receptions and 154 yards – both career bests.
Vogler had two big strikes against Houston. He had an 80yard TD pass in the first quarter and an 88yard touchdown toss in the second quarter.
Vogler, who also holds the secondmost passing yards in a game with 419, is 282 yards in front of No. 3 on the alltime list, Steve Stamp.
4OLIvER SETS RECEIvING RECORDTwo big air strikes accounted for 151 of Jimmy Oliver’s 206 yards in TCU’s Southwest Conference showdown with Texas Tech in 1994, but it was his other five catches for a modest 55 yards that catapulted him into the Horned Frog record book.
Late in the fourth quarter, Oliver – who already had touchdown receptions of 89 and 62 yards – caught a twoyard pass from quarterback Max Knake to move ahead of Vernon Wells for the school’s record for most receiving yards in a game.
Oliver’s recordsetting day, which was 12th best in the SWC at the time, helped lead TCU past Texas Tech, 2417.
The 18yearold record came under attack in the second quarter when Knake hit Oliver in stride at the Frogs’ 30yard line. The sprinter from Adamson High School in Dallas did the rest. He raced 89 yards to complete the oneplay, 11second drive.
That score gave TCU an early 100 advantage.
Oliver, who was well known for his blazing speed, was a Southwest Conference indoor 55meter and 55meter hurdles champion. There was a rumor that he clocked a 4.15 in the 40yard dash on one occasion.
His speed showed up again in the third quarter, when Oliver and Knake teamed up for a 62yard strike down the middle of the Red Raider defense.
Oliver’s second touchdown put TCU in front of Texas Tech, 1614, but the Frogs had to rally again in the fourth quarter to defeat the Red Raiders in front of 43,219.
Before Wells set the record of 204 yards in 1976 versus Tennessee, TCU’s receiving record was 37 years old. Earl Clark held the mark that Wells broke, 177 yards on 10 catches, since 1939. He set the record against Temple.
4LT RUNS LOOSE AGAINST MINERSLaDainian Tomlinson broke the NCAA Division IA rushing record, gaining 406 yards and scoring six touchdowns in TCU’s 5224 victory over TexasEl Paso.
Tomlinson carried 43 times and topped the record held by Tony Sands of Kansas, who rushed for 396 yards on 58 carries against Missouri on Nov. 23, 1991.
“All the credit goes to the ofensive line. They’ve done a great job of creating holes all season,” Tomlinson said. “I need to buy them a couple of steaks.”
While Tomlinson is the first majorcollege rusher to gain 400 yards in a game, he is the sixth overall in the NCAA. The record is 441 yards by Dante Brown of Division III Marietta College in 1996.
Touchdown runs of 70 and 63 yards on consecutive carrries in the fourth quarter got Tomlinson close to the record. So even with a 4525 lead, TCU sent him back out for its final drive of the game, and he broke the 400yard barrier with a sevenyard carry.
“If he’s so close to something like that, you’ve got to let him finish it of,” said TCU coach Dennis Franchione. “After three firsthalf turnovers, I was a little punchy about what to call in the second half. The smart thing to do was to give the ball to No. 5.”
