TCU narrowly escaped Kansas on Saturday, winning 31-28 on Senior Day to stay alive for bowl eligibility with one week remaining in the 2021 season. Kicker Griffin Kell converted a game-winning field goal for the Horned Frogs, who’re now 5-6 overall and 3-5 in the Big 12 with one contest remaining against the Iowa State Cyclones in Ames, Iowa.
Quarterback Max Duggan, still playing with a broken bone in his foot, returned to the starting lineup with redshirt freshman Chandler Morris sidelined with an injury, while running back Kendre Miller also made his way from an injury. Both players stepped up with gutsy performances on Saturday, leading TCU to a win in its last home game of the year.
