No. 7 TCU survives scare in Morgantown with 41-31 win over West Virginia

MORGANTOWN, W. Va. — Another losing streak to a Big 12 opponent ended as TCU snapped a four-game losing streak to West Virginia on Saturday with a 41-31 win over the Mountaineers.

The Horned Frogs had dropped their last three games in Morgantown, but emerged victorious thanks to another masterful second-half defensive performance. After surrendering 21 points in the first half, TCU allowed just 10 in the second as Dylan Horton led a tenacious pass rush.

It was a needed performance as the Horned Frogs offense sputtered in the second half, largely due to their own mistakes. TCU started the fourth quarter at the WVU 1-yard line, but settled for a field goal after the Mountaineers blew up a reverse to Quentin Johnston on third-and-goal.
