FORT WORTH, Texas -- Rivals.com has named TCU's Dick Bumpas as its National Coordinator of the Week following the Horned Frogs' 30-21 win over Oregon State.
In his seventh year as TCU's defensive coordinator and defensive line coach, Bumpas was instrumental in the Horned Frogs limiting the Beavers to just 13 first downs, 255 yards of offense and a 4-of-11 mark on third-down conversions.
TCU held Oregon State star Jacquizz Rodgers to 75 yards rushing on 18 carries. The Beavers finished with 73 yards on the ground, while quarterback Ryan Katz completed just 9-of-25 passes for 159 yards.
Bumpas is a three-time finalist, including the last two years, for the Broyles Award, recognizing the nation's top assistant coach. He was tabbed the Rivals.com National Defensive Coordinator of the Week following TCU's 17-10 win at Oklahoma in 2005.
