West Virginia (4-1, 2-0 Big 12) rode into Fort Worth as two-touchdown underdogs and pulled off a stunning upset, defeating the TCU Horned Frogs, 24-21, on Saturday night. The Mountaineers managed to secure the win despite several key players suffering injuries.
The game began with junior quarterback Garrett Greene back in action for the first time since suffering an ankle injury in the Backyard Brawl. However, the Mountaineers’ first offensive series did not go as planned, resulting in a quick three-and-out.
TCU (3-2, 1-1 Big 12) seized the opportunity, scoring a touchdown in less than a minute into their first offensive possession.
