TCU News: KaVontae Turpin Named Big 12 Player of the Week

Turpin is out here turning heads.

A true freshman from Monroe, La., Turpin had four touchdown catches in the Horned Frogs' 50-7 win over Texas. For the game, he had career-best totals of six receptions and 138 yards.

The four touchdown catches were the most by a freshman in Big 12 history. It tied for the most in a game by an FBS player this season and was the highest total by a freshman in 2015.

It's a good sign for the rest of the season.

“Teaching the game plan on Sunday — for SMU and Texas Tech — it was like they were in a cloud,” Patterson said.
