The play of a team’s quarterback dictates outcomes in football today at every level of the sport. Outside of the NFL’s reigning Offensive Player of the Year, Tennessee Titans running back Derrick Henry, that remains the case. While the Horned Frogs have been blessed with a five-star running back, Zach Evans, who has run for 100 or more yards in each of his last four games played, they’re 2-2 in that stretch with wins against California-Berkeley and Texas Tech and losses against SMU and Texas Tech.
Horned Frog quarterback Max Duggan showed perhaps for the first time in his three-year career that he can carry TCU with his arm, throwing for a career-high 346 passing yards and four touchdowns.
