- Today's 17-10 win over No. 5 Oklahoma was TCU's first victory over an opponent ranked that high since a 6-0 decision over No. 1 Texas in 1961.
- Oklahoma is the highest-ranked team that TCU has defeated in Gary Patterson's five seasons as the Frogs' coach. The previous best was a 37-22 victory over No. 17 Louisville on Nov. 23, 2001.
- It was Oklahoma's first home-opening loss since a 20-7 defeat to TCU in 1996, the Frogs' most recent visit to Norman.
- Cory Rodgers' 10 receptions tied his single-game career-high that was initially set versus Tulane in 2004. Rodgers has moved into ninth place on the Frogs' career reception list with 108.
