Fort Worth, Texas - TCU’s season is officially over after a 20-17 loss to West Virginia on Friday, to finish at 5-7. For just the third time in the Patterson era (2004, 2013) the Frogs will not participate in a bowl.
The final game of the season somewhat defined the entire season: inconsistent and mostly bad offensive play, a defense that did everything it could, but gave up just enough big plays, and fans left with major questions about what the coaching staff under Gary Patterson will look like in 2020.
TCU struggled out of the gate, with a Max Duggan pass going through Jalen Reagor’s hands into the waiting arms of Tykee Smith, who returned it down to the TCU 14 yard line.
