Defensive resurgence keys TCU turnaround

Just like the bulk of 2020, TCU’s football season looked bleak at the halfway point, losing three of their first four games including a 33-14 shellacking at the hands of Oklahoma at Amon G. Carter Stadium. However, a much improved defensive effort from both the pass rush and the secondary has completely altered the Horned Frogs’ season outlook. They clinched their first winning Big 12 season and with a win they will clinch their first regular season finish being two games above .500 for the first time since the 2017 season, Kenny Hill’s last as TCU’s starting quarterback.

“Well, I mean, you lost two one-score games [Iowa State and Kansas State], and it [the turnaround] says a lot about a young football team to be honest with you,” TCU Head Coach Gary Patterson said.
