San Diego State isn’t a bad team, not nearly. But a team that can score 14 points on TCU in the first quarter? No one saw that coming in, and so the tight Mountain West conference game the Horned Frogs and Aztecs are locked in comes as a bit of a surprise.
No. 3 TCU Vs. San Diego State: Horned Frogs Getting Game From Aztecs
The Aztecs raced out to a 14-0 lead with a 49-yard bomb from Ryan Lindley to Vincent Brown that set up a short touchdown run and a fierce rush that got a strip-sack of Andy Dalton in the TCU end zone and recovered for a touchdown. Those 14 points are the most TCU has allowed in a game since September.
Since, though, TCU has rallied, coming up with two touchdowns of its own. And the points have come through the air: Dalton has thrown for both scores, one to Jeremy Kerley and one to Logan Brock. The Horned Frogs may need more from him going forward, as they have negative-10 rushing yards so far.
They'll also need more points to even tie this game up. Ross Evans missed the game-tying extra point, and San Diego State still has a 14-13 lead in Fort Worth entering the second quarter.
