GoFrogs: TCU Receives National Team Of The Week Honor
The No. 3 Horned Frogs improved to 10-0 with a 47-7 win at Utah
DALLAS -- With a 47-7 win at Utah, No. 3 TCU has been named the Tostitos Fiesta Bowl National Team of the Week. It's the third straight year and fourth time in six seasons that TCU has received the honor. The Horned Frogs were also the Tostitos Fiesta Bowl National Team of the Week after wins over BYU the last two seasons and a 2005 victory at Oklahoma.
In snapping Utah's 21-game home winning streak, TCU improved to 10-0 for the second straight year and third time in eight seasons.
Utah entered the game with the nation's third-ranked scoring offense (45.2 points per game) but was held to 199 yards. The Utes did not cross midfield until the fourth quarter with TCU leading 40-0.
The Horned Frogs held the ball for over 39 minutes and totaled 558 yards of offense, including 328 in the first half. TCU led 20-0 after the opening quarter.
In six Mountain West Conference games this season, TCU has allowed just three touchdowns while outscoring its opponents 236-23.
