DALLAS -- The board of the Football Writers Association of America has chosen sixth-ranked TCU as the Tostitos Fiesta Bowl National Team of the Week following its 38-7 win at BYU.
Andy Dalton threw for 241 yards and three touchdowns, while the Horned Frog defense recorded five sacks. TCU won its ninth straight game and has the fourth-longest current winning streak in the nation.
It's the second straight year TCU has received the honor following a win over BYU. The Horned Frogs were also selected after last season's 32-7 victory in Fort Worth. TCU was also a 2005 recipient following a 17-10 win at Oklahoma.
The FWAA has named a national team of the week since 2002. This is the sixth season the award has been sponsored by the Tostitos Fiesta Bowl.
