TCU FOOTBALL

MVP, MVP 4Trevone Boykin, last season’s Chick-fil-A Peach Bowl Offensive Most Valuable Player, is looking to become TCU’s first two-time bowl game MVP since Andy Dalton was a three-time recipient (2007 Texas Bowl, 2008 Poinsettia Bowl, 2011 Rose Bowl). REMEMBER WHEN 4TCU’s last bowl game versus a Pac-12 opponent provided one of the signature victories during head coach Gary Patterson’s 18 years on campus. 4In his first year at TCU, as the defensive coordinator, Patterson helped lead the 1998 Horned Frogs to a 6-5 record. It was a dramatic turnaround from the previous year’s 1-10 mark. TCU thought its season was over, before being extended a late invitation to the Sun Bowl to face USC. 4The heavy underdog Horned Frogs sacked USC quarterback Carson Palmer six times en route to a 28-19 victory in El Paso. Basil Mitchell, TCU’s starting tailback ahead of LaDainian Tomlinson, rushed for 185 yards and two touchdowns as the Horned Frogs posted their first bowl win in 41 years. INDOOR FOOTBALL 4TCU is playing its second straight bowl game in a dome and fourth in its last eight bowl trips. 4This year’s Valero Alamo Bowl in the Alamodome comes on the heels of last year’s 42-3 Chick-fil-A Peach Bowl win over Ole Miss in the Georgia Dome. The Horned Frogs also had recent indoor games versus Boise State in the 2010 Fiesta Bowl and Houston in the 2007 Texas Bowl. SUPER BOWL SITES 4This year’s Valero Alamo Bowl snaps a streak of nine straight TCU bowl games in stadiums that have hosted a Super Bowl: Year Bowl 2005 Houston 2006 Poinsettia 2007 Texas 2008 Poinsettia 2010 Fiesta 2011 Rose 2011 Poinsettia 2012 Buffalo Wild Wings 2014 CFA Peach Super Bowl XI XIV XVII XXI XXII XXVII XXVIII XXX XXXII XXXIV XXXVII XXXVIII XLII XLIX

BOWL FIXTURES 4TCU is one of 20 schools to make at least 13 bowl appearances in the last 15 seasons. The others are Florida State (15), Georgia (15), LSU (15), Virginia Tech (15), Boise State (14), Clemson (14), Florida (14), Georgia Tech (14), Oregon (14), Wisconsin (14), Alabama (13), Auburn (13), Iowa (13), Nebraska (13), Ohio State (13), Oklahoma State (13), Texas (13), USC (13) and West Virginia (13).


QUICK STARTS 4 TCU has scored a first-quarter touchdown in a nation’s best 25 consecutive games, a mark that has set TCU and Big 12 records. Over the last 20 seasons, since 1996, it ties for the nation’s longest streak (Stanford, 25, 2009-11). HISTORY MADE 4 For the first time in its history, TCU has a 3,000yard passer (Trevone Boykin, 3,575), a 1,000-yard rusher (Aaron Green, 1,171) and 1,000-yard receiver (Josh Doctson, 1,327). 4 The Horned Frogs have a 1,000-yard rusher (Green) and 1,000-yard receiver (Doctson) for the first time since 2003, when Robert Merrill ran for 1,107 yards and Reggie Harrell had 1,012 yards receiving. CHASING TCU HISTORY 4For the second straight season, since the arrival of co-offensive coordinators Doug Meacham and Sonny Cumbie, TCU is on pace to set single-season school records in several major statistical categories:

Category Number Projection Record (Year) First Downs 331 359 331 (2014) Offensive Plays 984 1,066 1,038 (2014) Passing Yards 4,146 4,492 4,240 (2014) Total Offense 6,772 7,336 6,929 (2014) Points 500 542 604 (2014)

4 At its current mark of 41.7 points per game, TCU is projected to finish with 542 points scored. It would rank second for a season in school history. MOVING THE STICKS 4 TCU is tied for second nationally with seven games this year of at least 600 yards of offense. In the last 20 seasons, only Texas Tech (8, 2015) and Houston (8, 2011) have had more. 4 Earlier this season, TCU had at least 300 yards passing and 150 rushing in eight straight games for the longest streak by an FBS team since 1996. MR. OFFENSE 4 Trevone Boykin is second in the nation in total offense at 380.6 yards per game, trailing only Texas Tech’s Patrick Mahomes (397.3). 4 Entering the Kansas game, in which he left with a first-quarter injury, Boykin’s average of 441.1 yards per game was on pace to rank third in FBS history: Name Total Offense David Klingler, Houston, 1990 474.6 B.J. Symons, Texas Tech, 2003 459.7 Trevone Boykin, TCU, 2015 441.1 GAME ON THE LINE 4 In two of his last four road games, Trevone Boykin led the Horned Frogs on a game-winning drive on their final possession: Opponent Comp.

4 On the series prior to his game-winning drive at Kansas State, Boykin had a career-long 69-yard touchdown run to give TCU a 45-42 lead. K-State then answered with a field goal to tie the score. THE STREAK 4Trevone Boykin’s TCU record and nation’s-best streak of 24 games with a touchdown pass came to an end against Kansas. The previous TCU mark of 21 was held by Andy Dalton and culminated with the 2011 Rose Bowl win over Wisconsin. THE NATION’S LEADER 4Since 2012, Trevone Boykin tops all players nationally in percentage (55.8) of his team’s offense (12,777/22,891). No one else is above 50 percent. 4Boykin leads all active players nationally, who have been at the FBS level their entire careers, in total offense:

Name Total Offense Trevone Boykin, TCU 12,777 Brandon Doughty, Western Kentucky 12,124 Jared Goff, California 11,635

4Boykin ranks 24th in FBS history in total offense. At his current pace, he’d finish 16th with 13,158 yards. 4Against Baylor, Boykin moved past the likes of Robert Griffin III (12,620) and Drew Bees (12,692). Among those he could pass in the Oregon game are Marcus Mariota (13,033) and Russell Wilson (13,141). 4Boykin is one of eight quarterbacks in FBS history with at least 10,000 yards passing and 1,500 rushing. With Andy Dalton included, TCU is the only school to have two players.

TACKLES FOR LOSS

4Baylor was held to seven points over the final three quarters in regulation and two overtimes, compiling just 215 yards of offense in that stretch.

4Derrick Kindred has been the lone starter from last year’s defense who did not graduate, depart for the NFL or been sidelined in 2015, and he’s playing hurt.

4TCU held Baylor to a season-low 21 points and its lowest total in a game since 2013. The Horned Frogs also limited the Bears to 62 yards passing (7-of-24), their lowest total since 2002.

A TCU TRADITION 4Since the NCAA began tracking statistics in 1937, TCU trails only Alabama for the most times leading the nation in total defense. The Crimson Tide have been No. 1 six times, while all five No. 1 rankings for the Horned Frogs are in the last 15 seasons. 4In 2010, TCU became just the third program in NCAA history to top the nation in total defense in three consecutive seasons (2008-10). The others are Toledo (1969-71) and Oklahoma (1985-87).

SACKING THE QB 4TCU’s two sacks against Baylor extended its school record to 29 consecutive games with at least one sack, a mark that is second in the nation:

23 TACKLES! 4Ty Summers’ 23 tackles against Baylor, including the stop on a fourth-and-1 run in the second overtime to end the game, were the most by a Horned Frog in the 15 seasons with Gary Patterson as head coach. It tied for sixth for a single game in TCU history. 4Summers’ 23 tackles were TCU’s most in a game since Scott Taft tied a single-game school record with 30 stops versus UTEP in 1997. It also tied for the most by a Big 12 player since the start of the 2000 season. 4Summers’ effort earned him Walter Camp National Defensive Player of the Week honors as well as Big 12 Defensive Player of the Week. CAREER-GAMES 4In addition to Ty Summers (23 tackles), TCU had career-high tackle totals in the Baylor game by Travin Howard (19), Davion Pierson (13) and Denzel Johnson (10). 4Pierson totaled a career-best 3 1/2 tackles for loss, including a sack. MAKING THE STOPS 4With his team-high 92 stops, Travin Howard is on pace to make it nine straight seasons that a linebacker has led TCU in tackles. The last non-linebacker to top the Horned Frogs in stops was safety Marvin White with 86 in 2006. GETTING OFF THE FIELD 4The Horned Frogs are third nationally in forcing an average of 5.6 3-and-outs per game. 4TCU opponents have gone 3-and-out on 38.1 percent (67-of-176) of their possessions this season:

A YOUTHFUL GROUP 4TCU entered 2015 season as the only school in the nation whose linebackers had no career starts. 4In the 15-year tenure of head coach Gary Patterson, the first true freshmen linebackers to start came in the opening two games this season: Mike Freeze at Minnesota and Montrel Wilson versus Stephen F. Austin. 4Travin Howard and Wilson, who have started the most games at linebacker, began fall camp this season as backup safeties. 4Ty Summers, who had 23 tackles against Baylor, was a quarterback in high school.

HEAD COACH GARY PAT TERSON

GARY PAT TERSON HEAD COACH

KANSAS STATE, 1983 15th Season as TCU Head Coach 18th Season Overall at TCU Since taking over the helm of the Horned Frogs in December 2000, Gary Patterson has become synonymous with TCU football and Fort Worth. Patterson, the Horned Frogs’ all-time winningest coach with 142 victories, led TCU to a 2014 Big 12 championship in just its third season in the conference. TCU won its sixth conference championship, in three different leagues, under Patterson. The Horned Frogs have won at least 11 games in eight of the last 13 seasons, including a 12-1 mark in 2014. Patterson received honorable-mention Big 12 Coach of the Year recognition in 2015. Despite having 20 starters sidelined at different points in the season and playing a total of 30 freshmen, which ranked second nationally, TCU still posted a 10-2 record for its sixth 10-win campaign in the past 14 seasons. Prior to Patterson’s arrival on campus in 1998, TCU had just four 10-win seasons in its history. Patterson received 10 National Coach of the Year honors in 2014. He was honored by the Walter Camp Football Foundation, AFCA, Associated Press, Home Depot, ESPN.com, CBSSports.com and Scout.com. He also received the Eddie Robinson Award, Paul “Bear” Bryant Award and Woody Hayes Award. Patterson has won a total of 20 National Coach of the Year honors in his 15-year head coaching tenure at TCU. Patterson’s .751 winning percentage (142-47) ranks fifth among active coaches nationally (minimum 10 years). He is also one of just four active coaches with at least 142 victories at their current schools. TCU is 38-4 as a top-10 team under Patterson, including 27-2 when in the Associated Press or USA Today Top 5. Since 2000, TCU’s 25-2 record (.926) as an AP Top 5 team is the best mark nationally. The Horned Frogs had a 22-game winning streak as an AP Top 5 squad snapped Nov. 7, 2015, at Oklahoma State. The fifth-longest tenured head coach in the nation, Patterson became TCU’s career leader in wins with a 56-0 victory over Grambling State in the 2012 season opener, a game that also marked the debut of the new Amon G. Carter Stadium. The previous TCU mark of 109 wins was held by Dutch Meyer (193452). The success of the program under his leadership was key in TCU securing an invitation to the Big 12 Conference and the $164 million rebuild of Amon G. Carter Stadium. In August 2011, Patterson was named the nation’s top coach by Sports Illustrated and ESPN The Magazine. Sporting News tabbed him in January 2012 as the nation’s third-best coach. In leading TCU to back-to-back BCS appearances in the 2009 and 2010 seasons, including a 2011 Rose Bowl championship, Patterson received 10 National Coach of the Year honors. The Horned Frogs have won eight conference titles with Patterson on staff in addition to posting 11 of the school’s 15 10-win seasons. The Horned Frogs have won at least 10 games in 10 of the last 14 years. During his 18 years on campus, including three seasons as defensive coordinator (1998-00), Patterson has seen TCU make 16 bowl appearances. From 2005-08, Patterson led the Horned Frogs to four straight bowl victories for the first time in school history. During that stretch, TCU was one of just seven schools nationally to have an active bowl game winning streak of at least four in a row. TCU is 10-5 in bowl games with Patterson on its coaching staff and 8-5 with him as head coach. Prior to Patterson’s arrival on campus in 1998, the Horned Frogs had just four bowl wins in their history. In 15 seasons as a head coach, Patterson has coached 188 AllConference selections, 16 first-team All-Americans, 17 Freshman All-Americans and two Academic All-Americans. As TCU’s head coach, Patterson has had 36 players drafted with a total of 82 in NFL camps.

TCU FOOTBALL

Patterson’s success on the gridiron is also mirrored in the classroom for his players. In each of the last eight seasons, TCU has been recognized by the American Football Coaches Association (AFCA) as one of the nation’s leaders in its graduation rate for student-athletes. TCU was one of just a few schools to achieve a graduation rate of 90 percent or better for its football student-athletes who entered as freshmen in 2005. TCU was also one of just four programs to finish in the top 25 in the final 2010 polls and in the Academic Progress Rate (APR). Since the NCAA began tracking statistics in 1937, TCU trails only Alabama for the most times leading the nation in total defense. The Crimson Tide have been No. 1 six times, while all five No. 1 rankings (2000, 2002, 2008, 2009, 2010) for the Horned Frogs are in the last 14 seasons under Patterson. From 2008-10, TCU became just the third program in NCAA history to lead the nation in total defense in three consecutive seasons. TCU’s winning record in its first season in the Big 12 in 2012 came with the Horned Frogs fielding one of the youngest teams in the country. TCU tied for the national lead in most true freshmen played (16) as well as total freshmen (28) seeing the field. Nearly 70 percent of Horned Frogs who received playing time in 2012 were either freshmen or sophomores. TCU led the Big 12 in total defense with just one senior on its defensive depth chart. In its first year in the Big 12, TCU had 18 players recognized with all-conference honors. The list included true freshman defensive end Devonte Fields, who was named the Associated Press Big 12 Defensive Player of the Year. Cornerback Jason Verrett was the 2013 Co-Big 12 Defensive Player of the Year. Despite losing 26 seniors to graduation off his Rose Bowl championship team, Patterson led a 2011 TCU squad to a third consecutive Mountain West championship. It was the first time the Horned Frogs won a conference title in three straight seasons. TCU was also the first team in MW history to win the league championship in three consecutive campaigns. The 2011campaign saw TCU record its fourth straight 11-win season and become the only program nationally to reach 11 victories six times in a seven-year span (2005-11). In 2010, Patterson guided the Horned Frogs to an undefeated season and Rose Bowl championship. TCU finished second in the final polls with a 13-0 record, its first perfect campaign since winning the national championship in 1938. Patterson was named American Football Monthly’s 2010 Coach of the Year as he led TCU to its second straight BCS game. Other honors for Patterson included the Exchange Club of Fort Worth recognizing him as Fort Worth’s Outstanding Citizen for 2010, while the National Football Foundation’s Gridiron Club of Dallas selected him for its 2011 Distinguished Texan Award. Patterson also received the 2010 TCU Chancellor’s Staff Award for Outstanding Service. In 2009, Patterson was selected for nine national coaching honors after leading TCU to a 12-1 record, No. 6 ranking and Fiesta Bowl appearance. Patterson was named National Coach of the Year by the Walter Camp Football Foundation, Associated Press, American Football Coaches Association and Sporting News while also receiving the Bobby Dodd Award, Eddie Robinson Award, Liberty Mutual Coach of the Year Award, George Munger Award and Woody Hayes Award. Despite losing two starters in the first two rounds of the National Football League draft and a pair of four-year starters at cornerback, TCU topped the nation in total defense in 2010. In six of its seven seasons in the Mountain West, TCU set the pace on the all-conference teams. The Horned Frogs had a schoolrecord 20 selections in 2009, 19 in 2011, 18 in 2005 and 2008, 17 in 2010, 14 in 2006 and 11 in 2007. The No. 6 spot in the polls in 2009 was TCU’s highest seasonending ranking since 1955, when it was also sixth. The Horned

2002 season earned him Conference USA Coach of the Year accolades. The Horned Frogs finished the season ranked 22nd in the USA Today/ESPN Coaches Poll and 23rd in the Associated Press poll. Eleven of Patterson’s career wins came in the Horned Frogs’ 2003 campaign, when TCU climbed as high as sixth in the BCS rankings - the highest ranking at that time for a school from a nonautomatic qualifying conference. Under Patterson’s guidance, the Horned Frogs got off to a 10-0 start after opening the season ranked 25th in the Associated Press poll. They finished the season 11-2 and ranked in the top 25 for the second year in a row - the first time that had happened at TCU since the 1950s. His leadership of the 2003 squad made him a finalist for both the Eddie Robinson and Bobby Dodd Coach of the Year honors. He was also named an assistant coach for the Hula Bowl. Patterson amassed 18 years as an assistant coach, including three with the Horned Frogs, before taking the torch from Dennis Franchione prior to the 2000 GMAC Mobile Alabama Bowl. In 1998, Patterson’s first season at TCU, the Horned Frogs scored a school-record six defensive touchdowns, intercepted 12 passes and allowed only 19.6 points per game - the fewest points per game in over 30 years. It was accomplished by a team that was 1-10 the previous season. Patterson’s 1999 TCU defense ended the season ranked fifth in the country in total defense. The Horned Frogs posted two shutouts and led the Western Athletic Conference in every major defensive category. In 2000, the Horned Frogs allowed only 245.0 total yards and 9.6 points per game, ranking first in the nation in both categories. Five of Patterson’s players earned first-team all-conference recognition and he was a finalist for the Frank Broyles National Assistant Coach of the Year award. Prior to his arrival in Fort Worth, Patterson spent two seasons as the defensive coordinator and safeties coach at New Mexico. The Lobos collected 22 total takeaways and three defensive touchdowns in 1996. The next year, in Patterson style, New Mexico improved its total takeaways to 29, including 16 interceptions. A true defensive specialist, Patterson had a similar impact at Navy. In just one season as the Midshipmen’s secondary coach in 1995, he helped elevate the defense in the national rankings. Navy finished 18th in total defense, 17th in scoring defense and 28th in pass defense efficiency. Patterson’s defensive acumen dates back to his playing days at Kansas State, where he played strong safety and outside linebacker for the Wildcats in 1980 and 1981. He served as a graduate assistant in 1982 and received his bachelor’s degree in physical education in 1983. He took the linebacker coaching position at Tennessee Tech while earning a master’s degree in educational administration in 1984. Patterson has been part of 19 bowl staffs, including one each with Kansas State, Utah State and New Mexico. The other 16 have come at TCU. Aside from being an accomplished head coach, Patterson is also a skilled guitar player. On several occasions, Patterson has entertained TCU fans with his guitar skills at pep rallies around the Fort Worth area. A native of Rozel, Kansas, Patterson is married to the former Kelsey Hayes. He has three sons: Josh, Cade and Blake.

VAL E RO AL AMO BOWL

HEAD COACH GARY PAT TERSON Frogs had their first undefeated regular season since their 1938 national championship campaign. Despite losing seven starters to graduation, including three to the NFL, off 2008’s No. 1 defense, the Horned Frogs led the nation in 2009 by allowing just 239.7 yards per game. TCU and Florida were the only schools in 2009 to rank in the top 10 nationally in total offense and defense. The Horned Frogs were seventh offensively at 456.7 yards per game. In 2008, Patterson was one of 15 semifinalists for the George Munger National Coach of the Year Award by the Maxwell Football Club. He was also named to the Paul “Bear” Bryant Watch List for the College Football Coach of the Year. Patterson guided TCU to an 11-2 record and a No. 7 ranking in the final AP and USA Today polls. It was the Horned Frogs’ highest season-ending appearance in the polls since 1959. Included in the win total were victories over then-undefeated, top-10 teams BYU and Boise State. It was the first time since 1961 that TCU beat two top-10 opponents in the same season. TCU led the nation in total defense (217.8 yards per game) in 2008 for the third time in nine seasons. No other school in the country has finished first in that category as many times as TCU in that span. The Horned Frogs were also first in run defense (47.1 yards), fewest first downs allowed per game (12.1) and time of possession (35:10). TCU was second in scoring defense (11.3 points per game). Patterson became the fastest TCU coach to reach 50 victories (70 games) with a 27-21 win at New Mexico on Nov. 11, 2006. He was also the quickest to 100 wins (129 contests) after a 38-17 victory over Louisiana-Monroe on Sept. 17, 2011. Patterson was the 2002 Conference USA and 2005 Mountain West Conference Coach of the Year. He was a 2003 finalist for Eddie Robinson and Bobby Dodd National Coach of the Year honors. He also appeared on the 2006 Bobby Dodd Watch List. An 11-2 record in 2006 included wins over Big 12 opponents Baylor and Texas Tech as well as a 37-7 victory over Northern Illinois in the Poinsettia Bowl. The Horned Frogs’ defense ranked second nationally in run defense (60.8 yards per game) and total defense (234.9 yards per game) while placing third in scoring defense (12.3 points per game). TCU won its last eight games in 2006 for the fourth-best winning streak at the time in the nation, trailing only Boise State (13), BYU (10) and Wisconsin (9). The Horned Frogs’ eight consecutive wins were by an average margin of 24.4 points. During that stretch, the TCU defense allowed per game marks of 10.8 points, 59.6 yards rushing and 185.1 in total offense. In 2005, Patterson led the Horned Frogs to the Mountain West Conference championship in their first season of league play. It was also TCU’s first outright conference championship since 1958. The Horned Frogs posted an 11-1 record for just the fourth 11-win season in school history and the second in three years. TCU also recorded its first undefeated league mark (8-0) dating back to 1938. The Horned Frogs opened and closed the 2005 season with victories over Big 12 teams. Following a 27-24 EV1.net Houston Bowl win over Iowa State, Patterson saw TCU climb to ninth in the USA Today poll and 11th in the Associated Press poll. It was TCU’s highest season-ending ranking since 1959. TCU, picked to finish sixth in 2005 preseason MW polls, opened the campaign with a 17-10 victory at No. 5 Oklahoma. It was TCU’s first win against an opponent ranked that high since a 6-0 victory over No. 1 Texas in 1961. Patterson’s success in 2005 was achieved while playing a total of 21 redshirt or true freshmen, tying for fourth nationally in that category. The 2005 Horned Frog defense led the nation in turnover margin (+21), interceptions (26) and takeaways (40). The offense set a single-season school record with 50 touchdowns while its 398 points scored ranked second all-time at TCU. Setting the pace nationally in defensive categories is nothing new for Patterson. His teams also led the country in defense during the 2000 and 2002 campaigns. In 2002, the Horned Frogs allowed only 64.8 rushing yards per game - ranking first in that category. In his first full season as head coach with the Horned Frogs in 2001, Patterson was one of only eight coaches with no previous Division I head coaching experience to lead their teams to bowl appearances. He proceeded to take the Horned Frogs to a bowl in each of his first three years. Patterson’s 10-2 record and conference championship in the

ASSISTANT COACHES

DOUG MEACHAM CO-OFFENSIVE COORDINATOR/ INSIDE WIDE RECEIVERS 2nd Season at TCU Oklahoma State, 1988 Doug Meacham joined the TCU football staff as offensive coordinator in December 2013. In each of his two seasons, the Horned Frogs’ offensive attack has ranked among the nation’s best. In 2015, for the second straight year, TCU is on pace to set single-season school records in several major statistical categories. Additionally, the Horned Frogs enter the Valero Alamo Bowl ranking third nationally in total offense (564.3 yards per game). Meacham has also been instrumental in the TCU offense producing a pair of All-Americans in quarterback Trevone Boykin and wide receiver Josh Doctson. Boykin is a two-time finalist (2014-15) for the Davey O’Brien Award, while Doctson was a 2015 Biletnikoff Award finalist. In his first season at TCU, Meacham helped the Horned Frogs become the nation’s most improved offense in total yards (+188.2 ypg) and scoring (+21.4 ppg). TCU’s 21.4 points per game improvement broke the Big 12 record of 19.1 set by Oklahoma in 1999 (35.8; 16.7, 1998) and was the largest improvement by any team since Northwestern went up 24.0 points between 1999-00. The 2014 Horned Frogs ranked second in the nation in scoring (46.5 ppg) and tied for fifth in total offense (533.0 ypg). TCU set 26 school records for offense in winning its first Big 12 championship as well as the Chick-fil-A Peach Bowl. Meacham was a 2014 finalist for the Broyles Award, recognizing the nation’s top assistant coach. Meacham came to the Horned Frogs after serving as cooffensive coordinator and quarterbacks coach at the University of Houston in the 2013 season. TCU marks the sixth school that Meacham has been an offensive coordinator. In addition to his role at Houston, Meacham coordinated offenses at Samford (2002-04), Henderson State (1999-00), Jacksonville State (1997-99) and Georgia Military (199496). Prior to arriving at Houston, Meacham spent eight seasons (2005-12) as the tight ends/inside receivers coach at Oklahoma

State. He was the Cowboys’ passing game coordinator in the 200809 campaigns. Meacham was part of two of the most successful eras in Oklahoma State football history, first as a student-athlete (1984-87) and then during his tenure as an assistant coach. As a student-athlete, Meacham was teammates with TCU wide receivers coach Curtis Luper. The Cowboys ranked in the top 10 nationally in offense and averaged at least 40 points in five of Meacham’s last six seasons in Stillwater. Oklahoma State was in the top five in the country in total offense in the 2010-12 campaigns, when it scored more than 50 points 15 times, broke the 60-point mark in seven contests, 70 points twice and the 80-point plateau once. Meacham coached 2012 first-team All-Big 12 receiver Josh Stewart into one of the best sophomore seasons in OSU history with 101catches for 1,210 yards and seven touchdowns. Stewart’s 101 receptions were the fourth-most in school history and his 1,210 receiving yards trailed only Justin Blackmon (Jacksonville Jaguars) and Dez Bryant (Dallas Cowboys) on the all-time OSU list for sophomore wideouts. Inside receiver Josh Cooper (Cleveland Browns) and tight end Brandon Pettigrew (Detroit Lions) were among other OSU standouts coached directly by Meacham. Meacham was instrumental in establishing a record-setting offense at Samford. He directed an attack in 2004 that set several school records, including passing yards (2,986), pass completions (256) and completion percentage (59.8). Prior to Samford, Meacham worked the same kind of magic at Henderson State, where he was offensive coordinator and offensive line coach. During the 2000 season, Meacham coached an offense that broke two Division II national passing and receiving records, four Gulf South Conference marks and nine school passing and receiving records. Meacham’s history of record-breaking offenses, however, began even before his stint at Henderson. Upon joining the staff at Jacksonville State in 1997, the Gamecocks went 7-4 and recorded the biggest turnaround in Division I-AA. During his tenure at Jacksonville State, Meacham’s offensive unit broke 21 school passing and receiving records. Meacham also spent three years as the offensive coordinator at Georgia Military College. He first joined the GMC staff in 1991 and served as offensive line and tight ends coach. In 1994, he was promoted to offensive coordinator and helped guide the school to an impressive 35-8 record during his tenure. During his playing days at Oklahoma State, Meacham was on teams that participated in four bowl games (1983 Bluebonnet, 1984 Gator, 1985 Gator and 1987 Sun). He was a three-year starter on the offensive line for the Cowboys and had a string of 35 consecutive starts. During his Oklahoma State playing career, the Cowboys fashioned an overall record of 34-9. Meacham earned all-Big Eight honors and was an honorable mention All-American as a senior. He was a captain of the 1987 Sun Bowl team that defeated West Virginia. Meacham blocked for both 1988 Heisman Trophy winner Barry Sanders and two-time Big Eight Player of the Year Thurman Thomas. In high school, Meacham was a three-year starter and two-time all-district selection at Arlington’s Sam Houston High School. Meacham is married to the former Kendall Deas and they have three children: Peyton, Cole and Brooks.

SONNY CUMBIE CO-OFFENSIVE COORDINATOR/ QUARTERBACKS 2nd Season at TCU Texas Tech, 2004 Sonny Cumbie joined the TCU football staff as co-offensive coordinator and quarterbacks coach in December 2013. In each of his two seasons, the Horned Frogs’ offensive attack has ranked among the nation’s best. In 2015, for the second straight year, TCU is on pace to set single-season school records in several major statistical categories. Additionally, the Horned Frogs enter the Valero Alamo Bowl ranked third nationally in total offense (564.3 yards per game). Cumbie has been instrumental in the development of Trevone Boykin into an All-American and two-time finalist for the Davey O’Brien Award. Boykin, who earned 2014 Big 12 Offensive Player of the Year honors, was fourth in Heisman Trophy voting as a junior while tying for ninth as a senior in 2015. In his first season at TCU, Cumbie helped the Horned Frogs become the nation’s most improved offense in total yards (+188.2 ypg) and scoring (+21.4 ppg). TCU’s 21.4 points per game improvement broke the Big 12 record of 19.1 set by Oklahoma in 1999 (35.8; 16.7, 1998) and was the largest improvement by any team since Northwestern went up 24.0 points between 1999-00. The 2014 Horned Frogs ranked second in the nation in scoring (46.5 ppg) and tied for fifth in total offense (533.0 ypg). TCU set 26 school records for offense in winning its first Big 12 championship as well as the Chick-fil-A Peach Bowl. Cumbie came to the Horned Frogs after serving four seasons as an assistant coach at Texas Tech. He was co-offensive coordinator and outside receivers coach in 2013. Cumbie stepped into a play-calling role as interim offensive coordinator when the Red Raiders totaled 429 yards in a 34-31 win over Minnesota in the 2012 Meineke Car Care Bowl. In 2012, Cumbie coached a pair of 1,000-yard receivers in Darrin Moore and Eric Ward. The 2011 Red Raiders featured the seventhbest passing offense in the nation with 4,145 yards. A total of 13 different receivers had 10 or more catches over the course of the

campaign. In Cumbie’s first season in 2010, the Red Raiders totaled 4,146 receiving yards and 39 touchdowns. During his years as a student-athlete at Texas Tech, Cumbie worked diligently and waited patiently for his chance to serve as a starting quarterback. That opportunity came in 2004, when he led the Red Raiders to an 8-4 record. Texas Tech twice reached the 70-point mark. Cumbie capped the season by passing for 520 yards and earning Holiday Bowl Most Valuable Player honors in a 45-31 victory over No. 4 California. The 520 yards remain a Holiday Bowl record. Cumbie finished the season with 4,472 yards passing, the fifth-best total in school history and seventh best all-time in the NCAA. Cumbie received All-Big 12 honors on the field and in the classroom. He has a bachelor’s degree in history. Following graduation, Cumbie went on to play for the Los Angeles Avengers of the Arena Football League. As a rookie in 2006, he started 12 games and set a franchise record for most passes attempted without an interception (252). He was named to the AFL All-Rookie Team and was a finalist for Rookie of the Year. Upon completion of the 2006 season, he was signed by the Baltimore Ravens. He was back in the AFL in 2007, passing for 83 touchdowns in leading the Avengers to their first playoff victory in franchise history. From 2005-09, during the AFL’s off seasons, Cumbie served on the Texas Tech Sports Network as an analyst. After the AFL ceased operations before the start of the 2009 season, Cumbie became the head coach and director of player personnel for the San Angelo Stampede of the Indoor Football League. Four games into the season, he added starting quarterback to his list of responsibilities. As he did with the Avengers, he led the Stampede to the playoffs and their first postseason win.

In each of his two seasons with the offensive line, the Horned Frogs’ attack has ranked among the nation’s best. In 2015, for the second straight year, TCU is on pace to set single-season school records in several major statistical categories. Additionally, the Horned Frogs enter the Valero Alamo Bowl ranked third nationally in total offense (564.3 yards per game). Center Joey Hunt and offensive tackle Halapoulivaati Vaitai received All-Big 12 recognition for the second consecutive campaign in 2015. In Anderson’s first season with the offensive line, tackle Tayo Fabuluje earned All-Big 12 recognition and was a sixth-round draft pick of the Chicago Bears. In February 2009, Anderson was promoted to co-offensive coordinator. He also became the running backs coach after serving as wide receivers coach the previous eight seasons (2001-08). Anderson helped mentor true freshman B.J. Catalon in 2012 into becoming TCU’s leading rusher with 582 yards. Catalon was also honorable mention for Big 12 Offensive Freshman of the Year. In both of Anderson’s first two seasons as a coordinator, TCU set single-season school records for touchdowns, points scored and first downs while also ranking among the nation’s most productive units. The Horned Frogs won 25 of 26 games and made back-to-back BCS appearances, including winning the 2011 Rose Bowl. With Anderson’s guidance in 2011, Ed Wesley, Matthew Tucker and Waymon James earned honorable mention All-Mountain West honors as all three rushed for more than 700 yards. In 2010, Anderson helped direct TCU to single-season school marks in touchdowns (73), points scored (541), total offense (6,199 yards) and first downs (327).

efficiency (166.9), 10th in rushing (247.4 yards per game) and 12th in total offense (476.9 yards per game). As a sophomore in 2010, Wesley ran for 1,078 yards to become TCU’s first 1,000-yard rusher since 2003. He was a first-team AllMountain West selection and one of 10 semifinalists for the Doak Walker Award as the nation’s top running back. Wesley, Tucker and James all recorded 100-yard games in the 2010 campaign. In 2009, the Horned Frogs established previous single-season school marks for points scored (498), total offense (5,937 yards), touchdowns (65) and first downs (311). TCU ranked fifth nationally in rushing offense (239.5 yards per game) and scoring (38.3 points per game) while placing seventh in total offense (456.7 yards per game) and eighth in passing efficiency (154.1).

Those totals represented the fifth- and sixth-best rushing totals by a freshman in TCU history. In 2008, Jimmy Young became the first TCU wide receiver to be named All-Mountain West Conference. Young had 988 yards receiving to narrowly miss just the second 1,000-yard season in TCU history. His 59 receptions tied for the fourth-best total on the Frogs’ single-season chart.

Adrian Madise and LaTarence Dunbar were selected in the fifth and sixth rounds in 2003 by Denver and Atlanta, respectively. All three finished their careers in the top 10 of various TCU receiving categories. Reggie Harrell, who signed as a free agent with Dallas, became TCU’s first 1,000-yard receiver in 2003. During his three-year career, Rodgers tied Mike Renfro’s career TCU mark of 17 receiving touchdowns. Both Harrell and Rodgers rank among the top 10 in school history in career receptions and yards while earning allconference recognition. In 2006, Quentily Harmon closed his career as TCU’s ninth-leading receiver with 111 catches. In addition, Michael DePriest was signed as a free-agent in 2007 by Indianapolis. Prior to assuming his current duties, Anderson served on the TCU coaching staff as a graduate assistant from 1998-00, working primarily with the Frogs’ offensive line.

CHAD GLASGOW CO-DEFENSIVE COORDINATOR/ SAFETIES 14th Season at TCU Oklahoma State, 1995 Chad Glasgow, a member of Gary Patterson’s first staff at TCU, returned in 2012 as the Horned Frogs’ safeties coach following a one-year stint as defensive coordinator at Texas Tech. Glasgow was promoted to co-defensive coordinator in February 2015. Glasgow has coached 23 all-conference selections at safety at TCU, including 2010 consensus first-team All-American and Jim Thorpe Award finalist Tejay Johnson. Sam Carter was a 2014 semifinalist for the Jim Thorpe Award. Nine safeties in Glasgow’s last nine years at TCU signed National Football League contracts. The 2015 season saw Derrick Kindred earn first-team All-Big 12 honors as well as being an SI.com honorable-mention AllAmerican. Denzel Johnson, in his first season as a starter, was also All-Big 12. In 2014, all three TCU safeties (Carter, Chris Hackett and Kindred) earned All-Big 12 honors. Hackett, a free-agent signee of the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, had seven interceptions to lead the Big 12 and tie for fourth nationally. Glasgow, a 2010 National Defensive Backs Coach of the Year by FootballScoop.com, was part of a TCU staff that helped the Horned Frogs lead the nation in total defense in each of the final three seasons (2008-10) of his first tenure with the program. Glasgow made an immediate impact upon his return to the Horned Frogs in 2012. TCU led the Big 12 in defense with all three starting safeties receiving postseason honors. Carter was second-team All-Big 12, Elisha Olabode was an honorable-mention selection and Hackett earned Freshman All-America accolades. Carter and Hackett received All-Big 12 recognition in 2013. The 2011 Rose Bowl champion and second-ranked Horned Frogs, who topped the country in six defensive categories, became just the third team in NCAA history to lead the nation in total defense in three consecutive seasons (Toledo, 1969-71; Oklahoma, 1985-87). Despite losing two starters in the first two rounds of the National Football League draft and a pair of four-year starters at cornerback, TCU’s total defensive numbers improved in 2010 from the previous season. The Horned Frogs allowed just 228.5 yards per game, 26.2 yards less than runner-up Boise State (254.7). In addition to total defense, TCU also led the nation in scoring defense (12.0 points), pass defense (128.8 yards), pass defense efficiency (94.9 rating), opponent third-down conversion

percentage (24.1) and fewest first downs allowed per game (12.0). TCU’s defense also topped the country in three-and-outs per game (6.0). Colin Jones was a sixth-round pick of the San Francisco 49ers in 2011 and a key special teams performer as the 49ers reached the NFC Championship game. Stephen Hodge, who led the nation in sacks by a defensive back with eight in 2007, was a sixth-round draft pick by the Dallas Cowboys in 2009. Hodge and David Roach earned All-Mountain West honors in 2007. Roach and Brian Bonner signed 2008 free-agent contracts with the New Orleans Saints and San Diego Chargers, respectively. In 2006, Marvin White was first-team All-MW and later a fourth-round draft pick of the Cincinnati Bengals. Bonner was a second-team All-MW selection. White and Jeremy Modkins, who signed with the Cleveland Browns as a free agent, were All-MW in 2005. Since arriving at TCU, Glasgow also tutored all-conference safeties Kenneth Hilliard, a free-agent signee with the Buffalo Bills, and Marvin Godbolt, who inked a professional contract in the Canadian Football League. Glasgow coached safeties, including 2000 Southland Conference Player of the Year C.J. Carroll, at Southwest Texas State from 1998-00. Prior to his stint at Southwest Texas State, Glasgow spent one year at Illinois State as the linebackers coach. Glasgow also had coaching stops as a graduate assistant at both Oklahoma State (1994-95) under Bob Simmons and New Mexico (1996) with Dennis Franchione. Patterson was the Lobos’ defensive coordinator that season. A three-year letterwinner, Glasgow played linebacker at Oklahoma State. He earned a bachelor’s degree from OSU in business administration in 1995. Glasgow and his wife, Maida, were married in March 2010. The couple has four sons: Brance, Colt, Dayne and Breck.

ASSISTANT COACHES

DAN SHARP DEFENSIVE LINE 22nd Season at TCU TCU, 1985

One of the more popular players to ever don the TCU uniform, Dan Sharp is in his 15th year during his second stint as a member of the football staff at his alma mater. Sharp was named defensive line coach in 2015 after serving as director of player personnel for special teams in 2014. In 2015, Sharp coached defensive end Josh Carraway and defensive tackle Davion Pierson to first-team All-Big 12 recognition. A 2005 inductee into the TCU Lettermen’s Hall of Fame, Sharp returned to the Horned Frogs’ staff in 2001. He previously coached nine seasons at TCU before heading to Tulsa in 1998. As special teams coordinator, Sharp guided true freshmen Jaden Oberkrom and Ethan Perry to Freshman All-America honors in 2012. Oberkrom was also a semifinalist for the Lou Groza Award, presented to the nation’s top place-kicker. Perry’s 44.5-yard average ranked 14th nationally and second for a single season in TCU history. Oberkrom was an honorable-mention All-Big 12 selection in 2013. In his first two seasons at TCU, he had two of the fourlongest field goals in school history while tying a Horned Frogs’ mark with 79 consecutive extra-points made. TCU returned two kickoffs for touchdowns in 2013, making it six out of seven seasons that the Horned Frogs had at least one return for a score. In 2011, TCU was second in the nation in kickoff return average with a 28.2-yard mark. The Horned Frogs returned three kickoffs for touchdowns with Greg McCoy receiving first-team AllAmerica accolades and being the Mountain West Special Teams Player of the Year. TCU had the first-team All-MW return specialist all seven seasons it was in the league (McCoy, 2011; Jeremy Kerley, 2008-10; Brian Bonner, 2006-07; Cory Rodgers, 2005). Under Sharp’s tutelage in 2010, Kerley received All-America honors and was one of three finalists for the Paul Hornung Award. He was also a 2011 fifth-round draft pick of the New York Jets. TCU topped the nation in 2009 in kickoff return average with a 29.2-yard mark. The Horned Frogs had three special teams touchdowns. Kerley returned two punts for scores and received All-America honors as a return specialist, while McCoy returned a kickoff 81 yards for a touchdown en route to setting a singleseason TCU record with a 35.9-yard average. Sharp coached place-kicker Ross Evans (2008-11) for four

seasons and saw him set eight TCU records and three MW marks. Chris Manfredini was 47-of-54 on field goals in being an All-MW selection the previous three seasons (2005-07). Place-kicker Nick Browne and punter Joey Biasatti were semifinalists for the Lou Groza and Ray Guy Awards, respectively, during the 2002 campaign. Browne earned All-America honors and was the Conference USA Special Teams Player of the Year in 2003. Three of Sharp’s tight ends (Chad Andrus, Brent Hecht, Shae Reagan) were inducted into the National Football Foundation’s Hampshire Honor Society for academic excellence. Under Sharp’s leadership, Matt Schobel was the second pick in the third round of the 2002 National Football League draft and the 67th player selected overall. In 2004, Cody McCarty garnered first-team all-league honors. Sharp previously coached at TCU (1991-97) under Jim Wacker and Pat Sullivan. He mentored the tight ends for five years and handled the defensive ends for two seasons. Before joining the TCU staff on a full-time basis, Sharp served as a graduate assistant under Wacker. Sharp was a tight end on TCU’s 1984 team which went 8-3 and earned a trip to the Bluebonnet Bowl. He had a key touchdown reception in a 32-31 win at Arkansas, the Frogs’ first victory in Fayetteville in 29 years. In addition to providing outstanding blocking for TCU’s vaunted running game, Sharp earned All-Southwest Conference honors in 1984 as he caught 42 passes for 596 yards and seven touchdowns. He spent two years in the NFL with the Atlanta Falcons before returning to TCU in 1988. He received his bachelor’s degree in secondary education from TCU in 1985 and his master’s in liberal arts in 1992. Sharp and his wife, Cindy, both natives of Boerne, Texas, are the parents of two daughters: Alexandra and Andrea.

Idaho, 1991

Nebraska, 1993

Eric Russell comes to TCU after spending the last three seasons as assistant head coach and special teams coordinator at Washington State University. Last season, Russell guided the special teams units to another year of improvement as the kickoff coverage team finished tied for first in the Pac-12 Conference and the punt return team was fourth in the conference in return average. The Cougars also blocked three kicks during the season including a USC field-goal attempt in the 10-7 victory over the Trojans in Los Angeles. Russell also saw senior kicker Andrew Furney close out his career earning All-Pac-12 accolades for the second straight season after recording the fifth-most points in WSU single-season history. In 2012, the Cougars’ special teams saw improvement across the board as WSU improved in three of four categories over 2011. Russell, who previously worked on Mike Leach’s staff at Texas Tech, had spent the previous two years as tight ends/special teams coach at Tennessee. In 2011 the Volunteers ranked in the upper half of the Southeast Conference in three of four special teams categories, ranking fourth in kickoff returns and sixth in both punt returns and kickoff coverage. During his first season in Knoxville, Russell sparked improvement in UT’s special teams units. The Vols successfully pulled off two fake punts for first downs and a kickoff reverse that sent true freshman Da’Rick Rogers on a 78-yard runback. The 44-year-old Russell has a reputation as one of the top special teams coaches in the country and was special teams coordinator at Texas Tech in 2009 under Leach. For his efforts, Russell was a nominee for the 2009 Frank Broyles Awards honoring the nation’s top assistant coaches. The St. Maries, Idaho, native arrived in Lubbock after two highly successful seasons in the same position at Louisiana Tech under Derek Dooley. In 2008, he helped make the Bulldogs the No. 1-ranked special teams unit in the nation in the accumulation of net punting, punt returns, kickoff return defense and kickoff returns. Prior to Texas Tech, Russell spent 13 seasons at North Texas, including five as the special teams coordinator. Prior to joining the North Texas staff in 1994, Russell served as a graduate assistant at New Mexico in 1993 and at Idaho in 1991. He earned his bachelor’s degree in public relations from Idaho in 1991. Russell is married to the former Shannon Cook of Tyler, Texas, and the couple has a son, Hayden, and a daughter, Hadleigh.

DR. VICTOR BOSCHINI JR. CHANCELLOR 12th Year at TCU Working to provide a world-class, values-centered University experience Texas Christian University is all about the students. That’s the message Chancellor Victor Boschini has emphasized since he arrived here in 2003. It’s how the Chancellor and TCU First Lady Megan Boschini set their priorities. It’s why the Chancellor teaches a freshman class every fall and works to ensure that students in this state and across the nation can benefit from a university education, particularly through state and federal financial aid. It’s why Mrs. Boschini is committed to enhancing the TCU experience for each student and facilitating the forward momentum of the University. It’s the reason the Boschinis entertain hundreds of students in the TCU Chancellor’s residence and attend scores of events annually. That is if they are not traveling across the state and country on behalf of the University, or attending a summer Frog Camp for incoming students. For the Boschinis, TCU is a family affair. Chancellor and Mrs. Boschini (Honorary TCU Alumna 2010) are parents four Horned Frogs: Margaret (Class of 2018), Edward (Class of 2016), Mary Catherine (Class of 2012) and Elizabeth (Class of 2009). The couple has had the privilege of being at TCU during a period of unprecedented support from alumni, parents and friends that has enabled the University to create a world-class, values-centered university experience for its approximately 10,000 students. Following the Vision in Action strategic process, the $434 million Campaign for TCU underwrote an impressive agenda: doubling of scholarship support for talented and deserving undergraduates, construction of more than a dozen facilities, establishment of the John V. Roach Honors College, creation of 11 new endowed faculty positions and a total, donor-funded renovation of the Amon G. Carter Stadium. Now the University is realizing the next phase of its longterm plans: Vision In Action: The Academy of Tomorrow. As part of this phase, TCU is building an Intellectual Commons on the east side of campus, adding residence halls to meet student demand, enhancing the academic profile of the student body as well as balancing the mix between male and female students, and continuing to increase the curricular and co-curricular opportunities available both on and off campus for our students. One of the most monumental initiatives recently announced is the academic collaboration between TCU and the University of North Texas Health Science Center (UNTHSC) to create a medical school in Fort Worth. Adding to the outstanding TCU schools and colleges, this proposed medical school will augment the academic profile and expand post-graduate education offerings as set forth in the university strategic plan. The first class is expected to matriculate in 2018.

Chancellor Boschini came to TCU from Illinois State University, where he served as president, vice president for student affairs and associate professor in the Department of Educational Administration and Foundations. Prior to that, he held administrative and teaching positions at Butler and Indiana universities. As a leader in higher education, the Chancellor has a high profile in organizations that benefit students — nationally and in the State of Texas. He recently completed his term as president of the Board of Directors of the Independent Colleges & Universities of Texas (ICUT). He also serves on the board of the Council for International Exchange of Scholars, the organization that works with the Fulbright Scholars program, and the President’s Council of The Washington Center, the largest independent, nonprofit academic internship program in the United States. Previously, he chaired the National Association of Independent Colleges & Universities (NAICU), which represents the interests of private colleges and universities across the country. In addition, Chancellor Boschini sits on the board of the State Farm Company Mutual Funds, as well as the boards of the Fort Worth Symphony Orchestra, the Van Cliburn Foundation and the Moncrief Cancer Institute. Megan Boschini is also involved in a variety of community activities and organizations in Fort Worth to improve the wellbeing of our campus and city. Currently she is serving a term as President of GILL Charity. Gill is a Fort Worth group committed to providing free medical and dental care to children in our community. In addition to civic engagement, Mrs. Boschini keeps a busy schedule as TCU First Lady by entertaining each year a countless number of TCU students, faculty/staff, alumni, and supporters in their home. Both Boschinis are committed to ensuring that they — and TCU — remain good citizens of the University’s hometown.

ATHLETICS ADMINISTRATION CHRIS DEL CONTE DIRECTOR OF INTERCOLLEGIATE ATHLETICS Seventh Year at TCU Leading TCU Horned Frogs Athletics toward a bright future Chris Del Conte was appointed TCU’s director of intercollegiate athletics in October 2009. Since his arrival on campus, Del Conte has overseen a series of historic moments in TCU’s athletics history that include the Horned Frogs’ July 1, 2012, entrance into the Big 12 and over $250 million in construction projects. A new $164 million Amon G. Carter Stadium opened in September 2012, while a $72 million renovation of TCU’s longtime basketball facility will see the opening of the Ed and Rae Schollmaier Arena for the 2015-16 season. Most recently, a $7.5 million project began in July 2015 for upgrades at Charles and Marie Lupton Baseball Stadium at Williams-Reilly Field. This will include a new locker room, classroom, team lounge, sports medicine center, equipment room, alumni locker room and coaches’ offices as well as a new video board. Almost $6 million combined contributed to the August 2010 opening of the Jane Justin Fieldhouse at Garvey-Rosenthal Soccer Stadium and the Fall 2014 completion of the G. Malcolm Louden Player Development Center for Baseball. Other facility projects under Del Conte include the Horned Frogs opening a new football locker room, sports medicine center and equipment room. Within the sports medicine center, TCU is the only school in the nation to have a cryo sauna. There was also a Spring 2011 expansion of baseball’s Lupton Stadium, the Fall 2011 debut of the Physical Performance Center and the Fall 2014 opening of the Alice and Brad Cunningham Nutrition Stand. For the third straight year, and just the third time ever, TCU covered its annual scholarship bill through donations to the Frog Club. A TCU record $12.1 million was raised in scholarship contributions. It was part of $39.2 million in cash giving for the 2015 fiscal year, ranking third all-time in TCU’s history for athletic fundraising ($47 million in fiscal year 2013; $40.4 million in fiscal year 2014). It maintained a four-year average of over $40 million in cash giving per year. This figure is the highest for all Big 12 members during that time period. The partnership between TCU, Fort Worth and the Metroplex has never been more evident. In 2015, football sold out of season tickets for the third time in four seasons with a new record total of 34,094. Football, baseball, men’s basketball, women’s basketball, soccer, men’s tennis, track and field and volleyball have set either season ticket or attendance records in the last three years. The success on the playing field has carried over to the classroom. In Spring 2015, TCU student-athletes posted their highest grade-point average over the last five years. Ninety-four student-athletes earned degrees in 2014-15, while football topped the Big 12 in Graduation Success Rate and Federal Graduation Rate. TCU’s momentum carried into the 2014-15 athletics season as it won its first Big 12 football championship in just its third season in the conference. The Horned Frogs finished third in seasonending polls after defeating Ole Miss, 42-3, in the Chick-fil-A Peach Bowl. The TCU baseball team captured the Big 12 regularseason championship and made its second straight College World Series appearance and third in six seasons. Men’s tennis reached the Final Four, rifle finished third in the nation and men’s golf was 10th at the NCAA Championships. Track and field’s Ronnie Baker won the NCAA indoor championship in the 60 meters, while the 4x100 outdoor relay team finished second in the nation. Twelve sports reached postseason play. Over the last six years, four TCU head coaches (Gary Patterson, football; Jim Schlossnagle, baseball; Karen Monez, rifle; David Roditi, men’s tennis) have been named National Coach of the Year in their respective sports. Since Del Conte’s arrival on campus, TCU twice established a single-season school record with six conference championships.

TCU FOOTBALL

During that stretch, nine sports have won league titles (baseball, women’s basketball, football, women’s golf, men’s swimming and diving, men’s tennis, women’s tennis, women’s indoor and outdoor track and field). Sixteen sports have been represented in NCAA postseason play with 12 teams nationally ranked. In 2013-14, TCU totaled six team or individual Big 12 championships in addition to track and field’s Lorraine Ugen winning the NCAA indoor title in the women’s long jump. TCU captured three national championships in 2012-13. Rifle won the NCAA smallbore title, while Ugen (women’s long jump) and Charles Silmon (men’s 100 meters) were individual winners at the NCAA Outdoor Track and Field Championships. In Del Conte’s first two years at TCU, the Horned Frogs’ football program made two straight BCS appearances, including a 21-19 win over Wisconsin in the 2011 Rose Bowl. Additionally, the Horned Frog baseball team reached the College World Series for the first time in program history in 2010, and the rifle team won the 2010 and 2012 NCAA national championship. In 2009-10, TCU was the only school in the nation to play in a BCS game and win at least one game at the CWS. Del Conte was the recipient of a 2015 NACDA Under Armour AD of the Year Award and the 2010 Bobby Dodd Division I-A Athletic Director’s Award. In February 2015, he was named to the Division I Baseball Committee. During his tenure at Rice, Del Conte had responsibility for 16 intercollegiate programs, 350 student-athletes, along with coaches and staff. Del Conte also designed, developed and managed the Rice Vision for the Second Century Campaign, which raised over $90 million. The Second Century Campaign included athletic facilities such as the Tudor Fieldhouse and Youngkin Center for Student-Athlete Excellence as well as upgrades to the football stadium. Del Conte also secured a marketing sponsorship and broadcast rights contract for Rice and maintained a focus on student-athlete academic achievement, resulting in numerous public recognition awards from the NCAA for the academic progress rate of student-athletes. Prior to Rice, Del Conte was the senior associate athletics director for external operations and sports programs at the University of Arizona (2000-06). In that role, Del Conte had responsibility for the planning, management and oversight of the day-to-day operation for the department of intercollegiate athletics. He also functioned as the chief financial officer; managed external operations; had oversight and management of all contracts, ticket sales, broadcast rights fees, corporate sponsorships, and trademarks and licensing; and oversight of all facility construction. Del Conte also served as an assistant athletics director for external operations at both Washington State (1998-99) and Cal Poly (1994-98). Del Conte served on the North Texas Super Bowl XLV Host Committee and currently assists with the Davey O’Brien Foundation Board, the National Sports Marketing Network Board and the Collegiate Sports Summit. His other professional committee involvement and associations include the Division I-A Athletics Directors Association and the National Association of Collegiate Directors of Athletics. Del Conte received a bachelor’s of arts degree in sociology from UC Santa Barbara, where he was a track & field studentathlete, and a master’s of education, administration and supervision from Washington State. Del Conte is married to Dr. Robin Ward and has two daughters.

MINNESOTA 17 MINNEAPOLIS, Minn - The second-ranked Horned Frogs entered this season with high aspirations, and the Golden Gophers showed them just how difficult that pursuit is going to be. Trevone Boykin threw for 246 yards, completing 26 of 42 passes, and a touchdown and ran for 92 yards and another score to help the Horned Frogs outlast Minnesota 23-17 on Thursday night. Jaden Oberkrom made three field goals, including a 53-yarder, and Josh Doctson had eight catches for 74 yards and a touchdown for TCU. Mitch Leidner was 19 for 35 for 197 yards for Minnesota. His touchdown pass to K.J. Maye with 1:32 left pulled the Gophers within a touchdown, but Doctson recovered the ensuing onside kick to enable TCU to hang on. Boykin showed just enough flashes of electricity to walk out a winner, especially when he dusted a Golden Gopher with a nifty juke to turn a keeper into a 19-yard touchdown run in the third quarter that gave TCU a 17-3 lead. The Gophers opened the game with five punts and a fumble by Leidner on a sack from Terrell Lathan that set up Boykin’s 11-yard TD pass to Doctson. The Horned Frogs’ biggest question entering the season was on defense after losing six of their top seven tacklers from last year’s unit. They also were missing sack leader James McFarland and senior defensive tackle Davion Pierson, who did not play due to injuries. The inexperienced defense responded by forcing five punts in the first six possessions. SCORE BY QUARTERS TCU MINNESOTA

FORT WORTH, Texas - TCU built a 35-0 lead early in the second quarter and rolled to a 70-7 win over Stephen F. Austin in the home opener for TCU. The Horned Frogs (2-0) won their 14th straight home opener under Gary Patterson. Kolby Listenbee had six catches for 142 yards, including a 51-yarder on a deep throw from Trevone Boykin that set up the first score - one of two short touchdown runs by Aaron Green, who had all five of his carries for 20 yards in the first quarter. Boykin, who was 18 of 27, extended his nation-leading streak to 17 consecutive games with a touchdown pass on a 60-yarder to Listenbee, who caught the ball in stride on a deep crossing pattern and ran untouched to the end zone for a 21-0 lead late in the first quarter. Stephen F. Austin had a chance to score late in the second quarter. The Lumberjacks went for it again on fourth down in field goal range trailing 350, and Zach Conque’s pass was intercepted by Michael Downing. Boykin played one series in the second half, leaving after a 3-yard scoring pass to Emanuel Porter that put TCU up 42-0. Conque had 11completions, but for just 9 yards, and was sacked four times before leaving in the third quarter. A TCU defense missing two starters at linebacker and a pair of key linemen held the Lumberjacks to 167 total yards - 75 of those coming on a touchdown run by Loren Easly early in the fourth quarter that avoided the shutout.

FORT WORTH, Texas - TCU quarterback Trevone Boykin threw for 454 yards and five touchdowns, the last a 42-yard strike to Josh Doctson with 6 1/2 minutes left after SMU had gotten within five points, and TCU held on for a 56-37 victory. The Frogs rolled up 720 total yards on 71 plays. TCU (3-0) won its 11th consecutive game, a winning streak second only to the 16 in a row by top-ranked defending national champion Ohio State. TCU was up 42-17 when Boykin threw a 31-yard TD pass to Kolby Listenbee on the first series after halftime before SMU, with its own dualthreat quarterback in Matt Davis, had its surge. Doctson had five catches for 171 yards and two touchdowns. Aaron Green ran 21 times for 164 yards with two scores, including a 1-yarder in the final minute. SCORE BY QUARTERS SMU TCU

LUBBOCK, Texas - Aaron Green made it sound so simple. He was just following the ball as he had been told. He ended up in perfect position, too, catching a tipped pass in the back of the end zone with 23 seconds left to give the No. 3 Horned Frogs a 55-52 victory over Texas Tech on Saturday. On fourth-and-goal from the 4 in the Big 12 opener for both teams, Trevone Boykin’s pass was high to Doctson, but he got a hand on it and Green grabbed the ball as he fell out of the end zone. Boykin threw four touchdown passes and finished with a career-high 509 yards for TCU (4-0, 1-0). He completed 34 of 54 passes and ran for 42 yards on 14 carries. Doctson caught three touchdown passes and had 267 yards on 18 catches - all career highs. TCU went ahead 48-45 on Kyle Hicks’ 21-yard run with 8:22 left. Texas Tech answered after two clutch third-down plays when Mahomes found Justin Stockton on a 50-yard scoring pass with 5:55 to go. On the final play of the game - after time expired and a defensive penalty on TCU - Mahomes found DeAndre Washington for a 24-yard gain. He pitched it to a lineman, who pitched it to a receiver who got the ball to Jakeem Grant. He was pushed out of bounds at the TCU 10 to end the game.

FORT WORTH, Texas - Trevone Boykin threw five touchdown passes, including four to freshman KaVontae Turpin, and No. 3 TCU rode a 30-point first quarter to a 50-7 rout of Texas and its 13th straight win. Boykin threw for 332 yards without playing in the fourth quarter, and his 74 career TD passes are three more than Cincinnati Bengals quarterback Andy Dalton had from 2007-10. Two of them were to Josh Doctson, the latter breaking Josh Boyce’s TCU career record of 22 from 2010-12. The Horned Frogs had a 220-1 lead in total yards late in the first quarter after receiver Shaun Nixon threw a 29-yard scoring pass to Doctson on a trick play for a 30-0 lead.

MANHATTAN, Kan. - Trevone Boykin threw for 301 yards and two touchdowns, the second a 55-yard strike to Josh Doctson with 1:10 remaining in the game, and TCU nipped the Wildcats 52-45 to remain unbeaten. The Horned Frogs (6-0, 3-0 Big 12) trailed 35-17 at the break, but Boykin showed the poise of a Heisman Trophy candidate. He added 124 yards and two TDs on the ground, while Aaron Green ran for 121 yards and two more scores and Doctson caught eight passes for 155 yards and two touchdowns. Boykin had runs of 14 and 69 yards in the fourth quarter for touchdowns. Green’s 86-yard scoring run, TCU’s longest carry from scrimmage since LaDainian Tomlinson in 2000, came on the game’s opening snap. It was the second straight Big 12 road game that Boykin led TCU to a game-winning drive on its final possession.

AMES, Iowa - Trevone Boykin threw for 436 yards and four touchdowns and TCU rolled past Iowa State 45-21 on Saturday night for its third road win in four weeks. Josh Doctson had 190 yards receiving and two TDs for the Horned Frogs (7-0, 4-0 Big 12), who went on a 31-0 run after another sluggish start. ‘’We have to quit playing tentative when we go on the road...once we get them settled down and get into rhythm, then it’s been ok,’’ TCU coach Gary Patterson said. Once again, Boykin led the way. His 3-yard touchdown run with 14:36 left put TCU ahead 38-21, and he and Doctson made it a rout by hooking up for a 42-yard scoring strike 6 six minutes later. Boykin finished with 510 yards of offense and five total touchdowns in leading TCU to a school-record 15th straight win dating to 2014. Sam Richardson had 251 yards passing for Iowa State (2-4, 1-2), which stoked its hopes for an upset by taking a 21-14 lead in the first. TCU dashed their dreams with a pair of long drives and a suddenly stout defense. The Horned Frogs went 86 yards to open the second half, and a 13-yard touchdown run by Kyle Hicks made it 31-21. Nick Orr forced a fumble on a blind side blitz to kill an Iowa State drive, and Boykin’s touchdown run capped an 85-yard drive that put Iowa State behind by 17. Freshman Mike Warren had just 78 yards rushing for Iowa State. Warren had averaged 182 yards over his three previous starts.

FORT WORTH, Texas - Trevone Boykin leaped over defenders and threw from the hip for touchdowns, breaking TCU’s career record for total offense while leading the third-ranked Horned Frogs past West Virginia 40-10 for their 16th consecutive victory. Boykin was 33 of 48 for 389 yards and three touchdowns and ran 11 times for 84 yards, with a 2-yard keeper for a score when he hurdled a defender at the goal line and several nifty scrambles that left the Mountaineers tackling at air. When Boykin avoided a sack late in the third quarter, making a move that had linebacker Jared Barber flailing to the ground, he gained 11 yards before running out of bounds on the West Virginia sideline and slapping hands with coach Dana Holgorsen. The Mountaineers coach could only smile and was shaking his head when he appeared to say, ‘’I’ve never seen ...’’ before the television shot cut away. ‘’I can’t get No. 2 out of my mind making everybody on the field miss,’’ Holgorsen said after the game. TCU (8-0, 5-0 Big 12) made quite an impression on the night, as did Boykin and Josh Doctson (12 catches for 184 yards and two touchdowns) on Heisman Trophy voters tuning into a midweek game. Jaden Oberkrom kicked four field goals, including a 57-yarder to end the first half and put TCU up 23-10.

STILLWATER, Okla. - Trevone Boykin passed for 445 yards and ran for 73 yards and two touchdowns in TCU’s first loss of the season, 49-29 at Oklahoma State. TCU (8-1, 5-1, No. 8 CFP) gained 663 yards, but the Horned Frogs were held scoreless in the red zone twice as their 16-game win streak was snapped. TCU’s Josh Doctson, the nation’s leader in receiving yards, left the game in the second quarter due to injury and did not return. Shaun Nixon had career highs of nine catches and 146 yards, and KaVontae Turpin added seven catches for 107 yards for the Horned Frogs. After stopping TCU on fourth down in the red zone, Oklahoma State struck quickly. Mason Rudolph connected with Marcell Ateman for an 83yard touchdown pass to put the Cowboys up 28-9. TCU’s defense stiffened in the second half, holding Oklahoma State to just two first downs and 122 yards of offense. The Horned Frogs ran 110 plays from scrimmage, compared to just 53 for the Cowboys.

FORT WORTH, Texas - KaVontae Turpin’s zigzagging 49-punt return to open the scoring and strong play from Aaron Green helped TCU post a 23-17 win over Kansas. After Trevone Boykin was injured early in the game, Bram Kohlhausen and Foster Sawyer handled the quarterback duties for the Horned Frogs. With TCU leading 13-10, Shaun Nixon was open over the middle and turned Sawyer’s completion into a 42-yard touchdown, breaking a tackle on the catch-and-run score early in the fourth quarter. The only other TD for the Horned Frogs was Turpin’s flashy return, when he stopped and changed directions twice for a 7-0 lead in the first quarter. The Horned Frogs also leaned on the running game as Green had a career-high 177 yards. TCU still managed 487 yards without much from Boykin and an injured Josh Doctson, including 279 on the ground. Nixon had seven catches for 78 yards. Ryan Willis threw for 203 yards, including a 10-yard score to Tyler Patrick on fourth down to get Kansas within 23-17 with 6:19 remaining. The TCU defense then came through with three straight stops, including an interception by Ty Summers and Terrell Lathan’s clinching fourth-down sack of Willis in the final 2 minutes.

NORMAN, Okla. - Bram Kohlhausen’s 2-point conversion attempt was batted away by Oklahoma’s Steven Parker with less than a minute left and No. 11 TCU fell to No. 7 Oklahoma 30-29 on Saturday night. After trailing 30-13 in the fourth quarter, TCU had a chance to tie the game after Kohlhausen’s 14-yard touchdown pass to Emanuel Porter with 51 seconds remaining. Instead, the Horned Frogs went for the win by attempting the 2-point conversion but were turned away by Parker’s late play. Samaje Perine ran for 188 yards and a touchdown and Heisman Trophy contender Baker Mayfield completed 9 of 20 passes for 127 yards and two touchdowns for Oklahoma (10-1, 7-1 Big 12, No. 7 CFP) before leaving with an apparent head injury after the first half. Without offensive stars Trevone Boykin and Josh Doctson, the Horned Frogs (9-2, 6-2, No. 18 CFP) turned the ball over four times, leading to 24 Oklahoma points.

FORT WORTH, Texas - Trevone Boykin threw an 8-yard touchdown pass to KaVontae Turpin in the second overtime and No. 19 TCU beat No. 7 Baylor 28-21 on a rainy Friday night. Boykin, playing with a heavily taped ankle after missing a game, threw for 148 yards and two touchdowns, and ran for a 1-yard score in the first overtime. Josh Carraway returned a fumble 56 yards for a touchdown for the Horned Frogs (10-2, 7-2 Big 12). After Boykin’s pass to freshman Turpin to start the second overtime, Baylor had fourth-and-1 from the 16 when quarterback Chris Johnson took the snap and plunged forward. It would have been close, but there was never a measurement because coach Art Briles was calling for a timeout from the sideline before the snap. When Baylor lined back up, DEVIN Chafin took the handoff and ran into TCU defenders Julius Lewis and Ty Summers, the last of Summers’ 23 tackles.

FORT WORTH, Texas — The Centre eleven sprang something new to Southwestern football when they appeared on the field with their eyes black to keep the sun out of their eyes. All of the backfield men and ends were fixed in this manner to keep the glare out when going down on passes. Centre College of Danville, Ky., the “team of a thousand titles” swamped Texas Christian University New Year’s Day at Panther Park, the home of the Southwest’s baseball champions, by the score of 63 to 7. But in winning by such an apparently lopsided score, they didn’t take one bit of glory from the Texas gridders who gave 7,000 spectators a great thrill by putting across the first score and playing with such vim throughout that but few persons left the field until the shades of night had enveloped the players on both sides and made their movements almost a matter of guesswork. Probably the greatest attraction of the majority of the 7,000 was the fact that “Bo” McMillin, football player extraordinary, was in the fray. There were others there, too—Rowson and Douglass; and Jackson, who became a hero overnight in the first few moments of the game by grabbing a forward pass and dashing almost the full length of the field to a touchdown.

NEW ORLEANS, La. — Bernie Moore, coach of the LSU foot­ball team, was skep­ti­cal that TCU’s 3 to 2 vic­to­ry in the Sug­ar Bowl game was a con­clu­sive test of the squads. “My con­clu­sion of the game was that the slippery field elim­i­nat­ed at least 30 percent of the offensive 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 through­out the second half ... LSU scored in the sec­ond quarter after passes and runs brought the ball to the TCU two-inch line where it changed hands on downs. When (Sammy) Baugh at­tempt­ed to pass from behind the goal line he stepped over the end zone, automatically giving LSU a safety for a two-point lead. The Texans came back in the same period to recover a Louisiana fumble on the Lou­i­si­ana 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, All-American Cen­ter Darrell Lester and Halfback Rex Clark ... Clark played only one down and that was by the cour­te­sy 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 44-yard gallop.

DALLAS — With a sling-back attack that whipped over a field goal and two touch­downs in the first 25 min­utes of play and with a stur­dy de­fense that piled up the Marquette Golden Av­a­lanche, TCU cap­tured a spectacular football game here this New Year’s Day. The score in the Cotton Bowl classic was 16-6. So sudden, sharp and dazzling was the sweep of action of the battle that 15,000 spec­ta­tors, who braved threat­en­ing weather, forgot the gray gloom of the afternoon. Led by Sammy Baugh, who out-passed and outplayed “Buzz” Buivid to cinch his claim to the title of the greatest passer of the season, the Texans uncorked an offense 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 33-yard field goal for the first three points in the opening minutes. Before the first quarter had ended, Meyer col­lab­o­rat­ed with Sambo on a 55-yard pass-and-run gain for the first Frog TD, and in the second quarter he took an 18-yard heave from Vic Mont­gom­ery for the last score. Meyer even converted after the first touchdown. A 60-yard punt return by Art Guepe in the first quarter accounted for all of Marquette’s points.

NEW ORLEANS, La. — It was with pow­er, passes and kick­ing that the Chris­tians made the two touch­downs and one field goal that en­abled them to win, 15-7. Carnegie’s most consis­tent method of at­ tack was a bristling, quickstart­ing and hard-hitting offense, but it was with a brilliant 38-yard pass in the last seconds of the first half that the Skibos scored ... The second half started with the Pittsburghers lead­ing, 7-6. 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 cu­rate­ly how fearfully effective was the ground-gain­ing ma­neu­vers of the big white-shirted 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 6-0 lead ... Carnegie took the next kickoff and went to town with big, fast and tough George Muha doing most of the dirty work ... Earl Clark in­ter­cept­ed a pass and ran 25 yards to the Carnegie 35 yard-line, but Durward Horner, a TCU end, had been offsides 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 quar­ter (Davey) O’Brien passed to Horner down the middle ... The end caught the ball between two Skibos, but evaded both of them and ran 24 yards across the goal line.

MIAMI, Fla. — In the wildest, weird­est foot­ball battle ever waged in this cor­ner of the coun­try, the Geor­gia Bull­dogs outscored the cou­ra­geous TCU Horned Frogs 40-26 ... Coach Wally Butts’ fast team, well-equipped on ground and in the air, almost chased the Frogs off the field for 35 minutes... The score mounted to 40-7 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 them­selves and they were battered and weary from their empty-handed efforts. But there was too much tradition behind those purple shirts. Sud­den­ly, almost as if a fresh wind had blown into the stadium, the tide turned. They knocked over three touch­downs in rapid order. They turned back every Georgia thrust. The great come­back 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 touch­downs... After the rest period, Texas sup­port­ers 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 Cow­boys of Okla­ho­ma A&M com­plete­ly outclassed the TCU Horned Frogs in the ninth annual Cot­ton Bowl football game here this crys­tal clear New Year’s af­ter­noon to win, 34-0. Except for the second quarter when they staved off repeated threats, the Frogs were never able to cope with the double-pronged attack ... The first touch­down, scored in the fifth minute, climaxed a 59-yard 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 sev­er­al times when in their own territory, but after cross­ing the 50-yard line they were always thwarted by the bulling tactics of the burly Cowboy line ... Only once did the Frogs get inside the A&M 35-yard line and that was on a pass in­ter­cep­tion. Bob Ruff 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 seven-man 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 different ways.

MEMPHIS, Tenn. — Trail­ing a hard-trying TCU team by nine points, the great Charley Conerly sud­den­ly soared to the dra­mat­ic heights of foot­ ball throw­ing expected of him. In just five min­utes his rifle arm ac­count­ed for two touch­downs as the Con­fed­er­ates bested the Chris­tians, 13-9, 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 one-yard line, where Otis Kelvey was dropped on the kickoff, the Chris­tians 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, dis­tress­ing­ly flat except for one mag­nif­i­cent minute-and-half surge late in the third quarter, suc­ ceed­ed only in making it a mas­terpiece of frustration. And so the four-timesbeat­en Wild­cats from the Blue­grass State thor­ough­ly trounced the South­west Con­fer­ence cham­pi­ons before a capacity throng of 75,349 ... 20-7. Ken­tucky scored on two surges of 52 and 57 yards in the first and second quarters to post its 13-0 halftime lead. Frogs, who had bogged down once on the four, wasted another 59-yard push to the 24 early in the second quarter. Here, Clark in­ter­cept­ed a Mal Fowler pass returned to the Kentucky 43 and the Wildcats tromped on from here for 57 yards and another touch­down in 11 plays ... TCU made its 48-yard move to the five after this and came back later in the quarter with its 51-yard 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 com­mand sent in McKown to punt and he obliged with his neat kick-out on the 8. But here, where holding ’em was imperative for TCU, Tom Fillion broke loose for 17 yards on a third-down-seven-to-go-play ... Ken­tucky held the ball, put TCU in the hole with the kick and Bartosh was spilled for losses.

(TCU) ac­tu­ al­ly lost the game for being in motion on a conversion effort. 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 kickoff when quarterback Chuck Curtis made the mistake of re­ceiv­ing and run­ning 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 touch­down in the first quarter and count­ed in the second to lead 13-0 before the Rebels got their first touchdown to make it 13-7 at the half ... Mississippi won the game in the 11th minute of the fourth quarter ... Billy Lott scored on a five-yard gallop around his right wing. The Rebs’ winning move traveled exactly the same distance as their first touchdown pa­rade: 66 yards ... The Frogs went 44 and 75 yards for their touch­downs. – Fort Worth Star-Telegram

DALLAS — Harold Pollard’s four-for-four con­ ver­sions and the block­ing of Syr­a­cuse’s third pointaf­ter-touch­down at­tempt by (Chico) Mendoza pro­ duced a 28-27 Cotton Bowl victory for TCU after 18 years of wait­ing. The Frogs had dropped five suc­ces­ sive bowl ap­pear­anc­es and had not recorded a post-season triumph since 1939. It was a moving of­fen­sive show all the way with the TCU passing providing a balance Syracuse couldn’t stop and the Saltine Warriors riding pow­er­ful­ly on a running game spear­head­ ed by the All-America halfback, Jim Brown. He gained 132 yards and was voted the game’s out­stand­ing back. The Frogs’ All-American tackle, Norman Hamilton, was the one defender who came nearest to stop­ping Brown con­sis­tent­ly and he was chosen as the game’s out­stand­ing lineman. Syr­a­cuse scored in the last two min­utes to give the game its touch of such hair-breadth close­ness. 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 first-half 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 gen­tle­men operating the scoreboard had the easiest occupation in all land as the South­west Con­fer­ence champions (TCU) and the future gen­er­als (Air Force Academy) from Col­o­rado Springs played the sec­ond 0-0 dead­lock in the 23-year history of the New Year’s Day clas­sic ... It was the fourth tie game ever unreeled before a Cotton Bowl assemblage ... It was a dis­ap­point­ing final for both clubs. The Horned Frogs took the field bearing an 8-2 record. The Falcons were unbeaten in 10 games and had their season immaculate but for a tie with Iowa. The Frogs fum­bled 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 difficulty 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 offered 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, 23-7, by a dead­ly sprin­kle of Clemson pass­es in a sev­en-minute pe­ri­od of the final quarter ... The sud­den Clemson scor­ing flood washed away a 7-3 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 se­ri­ous­ly after Clemson’s second quar­ter 22-yard field goal by Lon Armstrong, and TCU’s lone touch­down, a 19-yard pass from Jack Redding to Harry Moreland with 5:45 left in the first half. Clemson had completed only one gaining pass all af­ter­noon, that a 5-yard throw from Tiger quar­ter­back Harvey White. White must have spotted the silver lining in the gath­er­ ing dark­ness for Tiger hopes. He took plenty of time behind the mam­moth 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 kickoff, Armstrong las­soed a pass from TCU quar­ ter­back Donald George ... From there, Lowndes Shingler, over­whelm­ing­ly voted out­stand­ing 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 Con­fer­ence, winning seven games to finish in a 3-way tie for the title.

EL PASO, Texas. — The Min­ers sulked off the field with a 10-point deficit at the in­ter­mis­sion, but then pumped up Billy Stevens’ arm and Joe Cook’s foot and even­tu­al­ly de­flat­ed the Frogs, 13-12. Stevens, who gained sec­ond 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 ball-con­trol­ling Frogs rammed into a 10-0 lead. Stevens made the 31st annual post season game a vastly different story in the second half. Stevens shot a 34-yard touchdown pass to 165-pound flanker Chuck Hughes and a star­tling comeback was be­gun ... The Miners drove 70 yards for a tying 21-yard field goal by Cook... Texas Western, a raging de­fen­sive team by this time, hopped on a TCU fumble at the Frog 29. Cook kicked an 18-yard three-pointer FG four plays deep in the final period to boot the Miners into a 13-10 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 quar­ter­back, Kent Nix got a head start. David Smith hauling in Nix’s 11-yard pass for the score ... The Frogs had another scoring op­por­tu­ni­ty in the first period ... (Bruce) Alford missed a kick from the 28.

HOUSTON — What had promise of being the ex­cit­ing fin­ish to an “unbelievable” season turned clos­er to a nightmare ... at least un­til TCU’s dramatic, fourth-quarter come­back restored some de­gree of re­spect to the out­come in the 25th edition of the Blue­b­on­net 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 21-point West Virginia blitz during a 14-minute span of the first half had some­what of a sobering effect on the Purples. So did the loss of All-American 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’ offense (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 in­ter­mis­sion, scoring the only touchdown of the second half while mount­ing 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 in­clud­ing TD tosses to Dan Sharp and Keith Burnett. Senior re­ceiv­er James Maness caught five passes for 90 yards but was no match sta­tis­ tical­ly for the six-catch, 152-yard performance of WVU light­ning bug.

SHREVEPORT, La. — A de­cade slipped by before TCU’s Horned Frogs re­sur­faced from obliv­i­on into the post-season... The Frogs most­ly slipped however, as they trudged and muddied them­selves on the rain-drenched field of In­de­pen­dence Stadium... Some 27,242 fans – a ma­jor­i­ty of them TCU sup­port­ers – withstood the temp­tation to stay home ... The view be­came pains­tak­ing­ly clear no mat­ter the van­tage point ... Vir­gin­ia proved too good for these up­start Frogs and captured its first bowl tri­umph in five attempts since 1987 with the 20-10 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 foot­ball team, but we weren’t quite good enough in a couple of ways.” The 15th-ranked Cav­a­liers (9-3) dom­i­nat­ed at the point of attack, where so many games will be won or lost ... The Frogs and their South­west Con­fer­ence-leading offense, which av­er­aged 411.6 yards per game dur­ing the regular season, sus­tained nothing on this chilly, wet night. Vir­gin­ia, which en­tered the con­test with the na­tion’s No. 1-ranked 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 offense 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 different outcome.”

BOWL HISTORY 1998 SUN BOWL

T C U 2 8 , U S C 19 ­­­∙ D e c . 3 1, 19 9 8 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 28-19 win over USC in the 65th Sun Bowl. Quarterback Patrick Batteaux added 94 yards and two scores for TCU, which recorded its first post-season win since defeating Syracuse in the 1957 Cotton Bowl. TCU (7-5) dominated the line of scrimmage, rushing for 314 yards while holding USC to a Sun Bowl record minus-23, breaking by two yards the mark set by Florida State in 1951. The Trojans (8-5) also posted the lowest rushing total in school history, eclipsing the previous record of minus-11 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 three-yard run 7:07 into the first quarter. True freshman Carson Palmer completed 17-of-28 passes for a season-best 280 yards to rally USC. The Horned Frogs put away the game by chewing more than six minutes off the clock before pinning USC inside its 15 with less than two minutes remaining. -gofrogs.com

MOBILE, Ala. — LaDainian Tomlinson ran for 124 yards and two touchdowns to lead TCU to a 28-14 victory over No. 20 East Carolina in the inaugural Mobile Alabama Bowl. It was the second consecutive bowl upset for TCU (8-4). East Carolina (9-3) entered the game as six-point favorites. That didn’t bother the Horned Frogs, who completely shut down the Pirates’ running game, holding them to minus-16 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 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 28-14 lead with 14:04 to play.

MOBILE, Ala. — Jeff Kelly’s 28-yard touchdown pass to freshman Kenny Johnson with eight seconds left lifted Southern Miss to a 28-21 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 (8-4) 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 (10-2) 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 officials decided late last week to allow the Patterson era to begin a season early.

HOUSTON — Byron Jones intercepted three passes in his first start and Joe Weber scored two touchdowns, helping Texas A&M end a four-game bowl losing streak with a 28-9 victory over TCU (6-6) in the galleryfurniture .com Bowl. The Aggies (8-4) beat their former Southwest Conference rivals for the 24th straight time. Weber, voted offensive player of the game, broke a 7-7 second-quarter tie with a 2-yard touchdown run and added a 14-yard 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 broken-up 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 15-yard interception to the TCU 1-yard 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 7-7 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 off 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 17-3 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 offense 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 6-0 in 1979. TCU (10-2) finally put together a seven-play, 62-yard 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 15-yard touchdown pass to LaTarence Dunbar with 1:21 remaining to put TCU up 7-0 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 338-149.

FORT WORTH — Ryan Dinwiddie, who ended his career as the most efficient passer in college football, threw for 325 yards and three touchdowns to lead the No. 18 Broncos (13-1) to a 34-31 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 51-yard field goal attempt, the first kick in his college career, with 7 seconds left. TCU (11-2) had its school-record 13-game 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 18-yarder 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.”

HOUSTON — Peter LoCoco hit a 44-yard field goal with 5:25 left in the game to put TCU on top 27-24 and the 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 14-0 lead just 6:36 into the contest. The two touchdowns came in a 1:55 span. The Horned Frogs took the opening kickoff and drove 80 yards in 12 plays, capped by a 20-yard 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 7-yard scoring run extended TCU’s lead to 14-0. Iowa State scored 17 points in a 4:30 stretch of the second quarter to take a 17-14 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 Jeff Ballard connect on an 84-yard touchdown pass to Michael DePriest to give the Frogs a 21-17 lead with 4:05 left.

FORT WORTH — RySAN 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 37-7. While Wolfe was repeatedly stuffed by one of the nation’s best defenses, led by end Tommy Blake, Horned Frogs quarterback Jeff 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 6-yard 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 all-purpose 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 100-yard rusher, one of only four teams to do so this year. Wolfe, who carried 20 times, came dangerously close to his career-low of 24 yards set in his first game, the 2004 season opener. The Huskies had only five first downs and 60 yards of total offense, compared to 23 first downs and 456 yards for TCU.

HOUSTON — Justin Watts had scored exactly one touchdown in his career at TCU before the Texas Bowl. TD No. 2 marked the go-ahead touchdown early in the fourth quarter to help TCU to a 20-13 win over Houston. The junior wove through the defense and danced into the end zone for an 8-yard touchdown run that made it 17-10 and gave TCU (8-5) its first lead of the game against its old Southwest Conference rival. He and Ryan Christian split carries against Houston (8-5) 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 21-of-30 for 249 yards with one interception. Watts and Christian combined for 88 yards rushing on 12 carries. A 15-yard 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 officials. 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. -Associated Press

SAN DIEGO — Joseph Turner dove into the end zone for the winning score, and LaDainian Tomlinson went nuts on the sideline. Turner’s 17-yard run midway through the fourth quarter gave the No. 11 Horned Frogs their first lead of the night, during a 17-16 victory over No. 9 and previously undefeated Boise State in the Poinsettia Bowl. BSU was trying to finish 13-0 for the second time in three seasons. The Broncos took a 10-0 lead on Ian Johnson’s 20-yard touchdown run midway through the first quarter, but their high-scoring offense bogged down against TCU’s fast, aggressive defense. TCU piled up yards if not points until finally wearing down the Broncos’ defense in the fourth quarter. The Horned Frogs moved 80 yards in 10 plays on the winning drive, with Turner finishing it off by shedding a tackle inside the 5-yard line and diving into the end zone for a 17-13 lead. After Turner’s TD, Boise State got to the TCU 14 before having to settle for Kyle Brotzman’s 33-yard field goal to pull to 17-16. The Broncos got the ball back with 6 seconds left on their 33 and tried to lateral the ball after a catch, but Jeremy Childs’ desperation flip was grabbed by TCU’s Matt Panfil. TCU outgained Boise State 472 yards to 250.

PHOENIX, Ariz. — Boise State reached into its bag of tricks again and stunned TCU in a Fiesta Bowl duel of unbeaten BCS busters. It was the first time two schools from leagues without automatic BCS bids have met in one of college football’s biggest bowls. After the Broncos pulled off a gutsy fake punt at their own 33-yard line, Doug Martin scored the decisive touchdown to give No. 6 Boise State a 17-10 victory over third-ranked TCU. A 10-10 stalemate came alive when punter Kyle Brotzman hit wide-open Kyle Efaw with a 30-yard strike with about 9 minutes to play. Four plays later, Martin dove over a tackler from 2 yards out as the Broncos became the second school ever to go 14-0, joining Ohio State in 2002. The Broncos caught the Horned Frogs napping on the fake punt by Brotzman. Kellen Moore then completed three straight passes to advance to the 2, and Martin scored to put Boise State up 17-10 with 7:21 to go. TCU took over at its own 1 with 1:06 remaining and marched to the Boise State 30 before cornerback Brandyn Thompson disrupted a pass by Andy Dalton, and Winston Venable picked it off to end the threat. Thompson set up the winning drive with his second interception of the game. He returned his first pick 51 yards for the game’s first score. TCU’s touchdown came on a 30-yard pass from Dalton to Curtis Clay that pulled the Frogs to within 10-7 at halftime.

#3 TCU 21, #5 Wisconsin 19 ∙­­­ Jan. 1, 2011 PASADENA, Calif. — Andy Dalton threw a touchdown pass and ran for a score, linebacker Tank Carder swatted down a 2-point conversion pass attempt with 2 minutes to play, and No. 3 TCU completed a perfect season with its first Rose Bowl victory, 21-19 over fourth-ranked Wisconsin on Saturday. Bart Johnson caught an early TD pass and recovered a late onside kick for the Mountain West champion Horned Frogs (13-0), who followed up their second straight unbeaten regular season by busting the BCS in dramatic fashion. Dalton passed for 219 yards for TCU, which won’t win the national title - that will go to either Auburn or Oregon. They meet in the BCS championship game in nine days. Luke Shivers’ 1-yard TD run put TCU ahead 21-13 early in the third quarter, but neither team scored again until Wisconsin mounted a 77-drive in the waning minutes. Montee Ball rushed for a 4-yard score with 2 minutes to play, but Carder made a perfectly timed leap at the line to bat down Scott Tolzien’s throw to the end zone. The intended receiver was open in the end zone. Dalton went 15 for 23 and rushed for a first-quarter score, winning the game’s offensive MVP award. But the defense deserved the credit for hanging on when TCU couldn’t score in the game’s final 26 minutes. Carder was the leader all game and the man at the end. – Associated Press

SAN DIEGO - Casey Pachall and the TCU Horned Frogs are headed to the Big 12 Conference on an eight-game winning streak. Pachall highlighted a record-setting game with a 42-yard touchdown pass to Skye Dawson with 4:26 left to lift No. 16 TCU to a 31-24 victory against Louisiana Tech in the Poinsettia Bowl on Wednesday night. It was the eighth straight victory for Mountain West Conference champion TCU (11-2), which moves to the Big 12 next year. It was the third time this season TCU overcame a fourth-quarter deficit to win, including a 36-35 victory at Boise State on Nov. 12, the Broncos’ only loss. Pachall was 15 of 29 for 206 yards. He set school singleseason records with 228 completions, 2,921 yards and a completion percentage of 66.5, breaking marks previously held by Andy Dalton. On the winning play, the sophomore took the snap in the shotgun and Dawson ran past safety Chad Boyd to pull in the long pass. The Horned Frogs, who beat Wisconsin in the Rose Bowl last season, had hoped to make it to a BCS bowl for the third straight season.

TEMPE, Ariz. — Dan Conroy kicked a 47-yard field goal with 1:01 left, Le’Veon Bell ran for 145 yards, and Michigan State rallied to beat TCU 17-16 in the Buffalo Wild Wings Bowl. Michigan State labored through the first half before going on a 90-yard march capped by Connor Cook’s 15-yard touchdown pass to Aaron Burbridge in the third quarter. The Spartans recovered a muffed TCU punt at the 4-yard line midway through the fourth quarter, and Bell scored two plays later by racing around left end for a 14-13 lead. TCU rallied to set up Jaden Oberkrom for a 53-yard field goal but left Conroy too much time for his second straight postseason game-winner. Bell, who entered the game as the nation’s third-leading rusher, had nowhere to go early on. Filling holes inside and stringing plays out toward the sidelines, TCU stuffed the back on nearly every touch, holding him to 38 yards on 11 carries in the first half. MSU produced only three first downs and 76 total yards in the opening stanza. The Frogs started gashing the Spartans for decent-sized chunks with their option midway through the first quarter, setting up Matthew Tucker’s 4-yard touchdown on an end-around. Oberkrom followed with a 47-yard field goal and added another from 31 yards after Trevone Boykin hit Josh Boyce on a 61-yard pass to put TCU up 13-0 at halftime. Boykin threw for 201 yards for TCU.

ATLANTA — No. 6 TCU rode three touchdown passes from Trevone Boykin and a dominant defense to a 42-3 rout of No. 9 Ole Miss in the Chick-fil-A Peach Bowl. Josh Doctson had two touchdown catches and Aaron Green ran for a score and added a touchdown reception for the Horned Frogs (12-1). Bo Wallace threw three interceptions, including one caught in the Rebels end zone by defensive end James McFarland for a touchdown. The action was as lopsided as the score. TCU finished with 423 yards and allowed only 129 to Ole Miss. The Rebels were held to 9 yards rushing in the biggest margin of victory in Peach Bowl history. TCU led 28-0 at halftime. Ole Miss ranked first in the nation with its average of only 13.8 points allowed. Turnovers and TCU’s quick-strike offense were too much to overcome. Wallace completed only 10 of 23 passes for 109 yards. The Horned Frogs turned two Ole Miss turnovers into 14 points. On the Rebels’ third snap of the game, a pass from Wallace was picked off by safety Chris Hackett. Two plays later, Kolby Listenbee threw a 31-yard touchdown pass to Aaron Green. Late in the half, Wallace tried to avoid a safety when pressured in his end zone by tossing the ball away, but McFarland snatched the ball up before it hit the turf for an instant touchdown and a 28-0 lead. Wallace was sacked five times - all in the first half. The rout continued in the third quarter as Boykin threw touchdown passes of 35 yards to Listenbee and 27 yards to Doctson. The scoring catch moved Doctson past Reggie Harrell’s team-record total of 1,012 yards receiving in 2003.
