TCU News: Defenders impress, but big plays doomed the Frogs

Football:

This was fun. Let’s watch it again and ignore what happened after.

Iowa State’s Brock Purdy made one of the worst plays you’ll ever see a quarterback make.

With his team leading TCU 16-7 early in the third quarter, Purdy felt heavy pressure in his face. Instead of taking the sack for about a 12-yard loss, Purdy chucked the ball indiscriminately as he was being brought to the turf.

That went about as you would expect. The ball landed right in the waiting arms of La’Kendrick Van Zandt, who then jogged 24 yards for what will probably be the easiest touchdown of his career.
