Individual Notes

Offense

* True freshman quarterback Max Duggan had career-best totals of 19 completions and 273 yards passing. He also threw for two touchdowns and led TCU in rushing for the second straight game with 72 yards on 13 carries, including an 11-yard touchdown with 1:59 to play for the Horned Frogs’ final points.


* Duggan is the first TCU quarterback to lead the team in rushing in two consecutive games since Kenny Hill in 2017.


* Duggan’s streak of 143 passes without an interception came to an end on his second attempt of the day. It was the second-longest streak in TCU history, trailing only Jeff Ballard (154, 2006). Entering the game, Duggan had the nation’s third-longest active streak. All the attempts were to begin his collegiate career.


* Duggan’s 51-yard completion to Taye Barber was a career-long for him and Barber. It more than doubled Barber’s previous career-long grab of 24 yards.


* Duggan became the first TCU quarterback to throw for at least 250 yards and multiple scores and rush for at least 70 yards and a touchdown in the same game since Trevone Boykin on Oct. 29, 2015, versus West Virginia.


* Duggan has now thrown for 1,147 yards, the first true freshman to top 1,000 yards in a season in the Gary Patterson head coaching era and first since 1999 (Casey Printers, 1,213).


* Barber equaled a career-high with his team-best five receptions while setting a new personal best with 94 yards receiving.


* Jalen Reagor’s 44-yard touchdown reception was the 21st of his career, one behind Josh Boyce (22, 2010-12) for second on TCU’s all-time list. Josh Doctson is the leader with 29 (2013-15).


* Pro Wells’ 24-yard touchdown reception was his fourth scoring grab on just eight catches this season. It was the longest reception of his career, nearly doubling his previous long of 13.


* Carter Ware had a 2-yard catch for his first career reception.


* John Stephens Jr. had a career-best three receptions for 32 yards.


* Artayvious Lynn had two receptions to tie a career-high set on two previous occasions.



Defense


* Garret Wallow had a team-best nine tackles to go with his first career interception.

* Wallow has led TCU in tackles in all but one game this season.


* Corey Bethley had his first sack of the season and seventh of his career, the most among current Horned Frogs.


* Ar’Darius Washington had his team-best third interception of the season.


* Washington’s three picks are the most by a Horned Frog since Nick Orr had three in 2017. It’s also the most by a freshman in the Gary Patterson era.


* True freshman linebacker Wyatt Harris had a career-best seven tackles.


* Trevon Moehrig had his second interception of the season and third of his career.


* Innis Gaines recorded his first interception of the season and third of his career to end the Longhorns’ final series.


* Jeff Gladney set a season-high with eight tackles to go along with three pass breakups, tying his season best.




Special Teams

* Jonathan Song’s 32- and 33-yard field goals made him 13-of-14 on the season and 30-of-34 in his career. He is 29-of-30 on attempts inside 40 yards.


* Griffin Kell closed the first half with a 52-yard field goal, the longest make by a Horned Frog since Jaden Oberkrom’s 57-yard effort against West Virginia in 2015.


* Kell had his longest made field goal in a college or high school game.


* Dillon Jones had a 58-yard punt on his first collegiate attempt, TCU’s longest punt of the season.
