No. 25 Houston misses late field goal in 17-14 loss to TCU

HOUSTON (AP) — Josh Hoover threw for 293 yards and two touchdowns and TCU took advantage of No. 25 Houston’s missed field goal in the final minute to beat the Cougars 17-14 on Saturday.

After stopping TCU (7-4, 4-4 Big 12) on the 5 with just under two minutes remaining, Houston (8-3, 5-3) drove to the TCU 20 and had a chance to tie it, but Ethan Sanchez’s 38-yard attempt with 46 seconds remaining went wide left.

Houston coach Willie Fritz said he didn't talk to Sanchez after the game, but he patted the kicker on his back.
