TCU’s Bumpy Start to the Season
The TCU Horned Frogs went to the National Title game a season ago. But the 2023 version of the Horned Frogs has yet to put it together fully. The Horned Frogs lost to Colorado to begin the season but then rattled off three straight over Nicholls, Houston, and SMU. Then, the loss last week to West Virginia put them in a 0-1 hole in Big 12 play.
The Horned Frogs have been good on the offensive side of the ball. They rank in the Top 32 in both passing and rushing yards. They are 36th with 34.8 points per game. The defense ranks 43rd, allowing 21 points per game.
Emani Bailey has been the big name in the offense, with 538 rushing yards on the season. Chandler Morris has come into the offense and tossed for 11 touchdowns and more than 1,400 yards.
