5 thoughts: These numbers show just how close TCU's win over West Virginia really was

Here are five thoughts following TCU Football's 31-24 win over No. 23 West Virginia.

Time of possession

26:43
33:52
34:52
39:04
28:39

These are the time of possession numbers for TCU's games this season. Ignore the 26:43 in the opener -- that was against Jackson State, it doesn't count.

TCU has been winning games by holding on to the ball. "The best defense is a good offense" has become a mantra for the 2017 Frogs.

And it may have inflated our expectations of this defense, just a little.

TCU's defense only had to work for 21 minutes against Oklahoma State, but still allowed 31 points.
