AP: Almost everything goes wrong, but TCU finds a way to avoid Kansas upset with second-half comeback
LAWRENCE, Kan. (AP) — TCU coach Gary Patterson spent most of Saturday watching every bounce, blooper and bizarre play go against his team on a frigid afternoon at Kansas.
In the end, the fifth-ranked Horned Frogs did just enough to turn back a spirited upset bid by the Jayhawks and remain in contention for the inaugural college football playoff.
"A lot of people would have lost that ballgame," Patterson said after the 34-30 win. "There wasn't any style points here other than the fact that we fought back and won the game."
Aaron Green ran for 128 yards and two touchdowns, and Cameron Echols-Luper returned a punt 69 yards for another score to pace the comeback from a 27-17 third-quarter deficit. Trevone Boykin added 330 yards passing and a touchdown as TCU (9-1, 6-1 Big 12, No. 4 CFP) avoided what would have been a catastrophic blow to its national title hopes. ..
