Barrage of mid-game injuries doesn’t stop TCU from pulling out ‘gutsy’ Revivalry win
TCU lost its starting quarterback in the first quarter. The top two running backs exited with injuries. A standout linebacker who had just returned from an injury didn’t make it through the first half.
Yet, somehow with a third-string quarterback and a third-string running back and a number of other reserves on the field, TCU managed to beat its biggest rival on Saturday at McLane Stadium.
TCU 16, Baylor 9.
“That was a gutsy win,” coach Gary Patterson said. “You want to know what kind of heart and what this program is about, you just need to watch that ballgame. There wasn’t any reason why we should have won that ballgame today, to be honest with you.”
