TCU used a solid defense and eventually wore down the Longhorns on offense to win Big 12...
TCU quarterback Max Duggan prepares for the team's NCAA college football game against Texas on Saturday, Nov. 12, 2022, in Austin, Texas. AUSTIN — This wasn’t the way anyone expected Saturday night’s top-of-the-conference clash between No. 4 TCU and No. 18 Texas to unfold.
What made the difference, in the end, was TCU’s commitment to its game plan. It kept working the running game, hoping – knowing – that eventually, Texas’ defense would fatigue and finally break, even if it just happened once or twice. It kept stacking the box on defense, focusing its energy on stopping Texas’ star running back Bijan Robinson and forcing redshirt freshman quarterback Quinn Ewers to win the day with his arm.
“The defense played plenty good enough for us to win,” Texas coach Steve Sarkisian said. “But we could not get out of our own way . Clearly, did not see this coming.” Nickel back Jahdae Barron was a one-man screen-destroying force, blowing up several quick hitters in the first half. And The defensive line dominated at the point of attack — defensive end Barryn Sorrell crushed TCU quarterback Max Duggan for 1½ sacks, part of a four-sack first half for Texas.
