Individual Notes
Offense
* Quarterback Max Duggan and wide receiver Al'Dontre Davis made their first career starts.
* Darius Anderson's 14- and 3-yard scoring runs gave him a team-leading four touchdowns on the season.
* Duggan is the second true freshman (Shawn Robinson, at Texas Tech, 2017) to start at quarterback in the 19-season head coaching tenure of Gary Patterson.
* Duggan (Council Bluffs, Iowa) is the third non-Texan to start at quarterback in the Patterson era, joining current teammates Mike Collins (New Canaan, Conn.) and Alex Delton (Hays, Kan.).
* Duggan had his first game with multiple touchdown passes as he had second-half scoring tosses of 12 and 13 yards to Pro Wells and 5 yards to Sewo Olonilua.
* Duggan completed 15-of-26 passes for 166 yards and three touchdowns in the second half.
* Darius Anderson had 161 yards on 19 carries for the first consecutive 100-yard rushing games of his career. He had a career-high 179 yards on 16 carries in last week's 34-13 win at Purdue.
* Anderson's 77-yard carry was TCU's longest play from scrimmage since Jalen Reagor's 83-yard touchdown run versus Oklahoma State last season.
* Anderson's 77-yard run was the second-longest of his career, trailing only his 93-yard touchdown against Ohio State last year. It was his third career run of at least 70 yards.
* Anderson added two receptions and a career-long 47-yard kickoff return.
* Pro Wells' first career touchdowns came on his two catches in the game, 12 and 13 yards.
* Olonilua's 5-yard scoring grab was his first career receiving touchdown.
Defense

* Wallow's 19 tackles are the most by a TCU player since Travin Howard totaled 19 against Texas Tech in 2016.
* Wallow's 19 tackles match the fourth-highest total in a game in the 19-season Gary Patterson head coaching era.
* Wallow recorded a half sack and now has 2.5 on the season. He had 3.0 in 2018.
* Jeff Gladney recorded a season-high three pass breakups in the game, just one shy of his career-high of four PBUs in last year's win over Oklahoma State. He added four tackles, including a half-sack.
* Redshirt freshman safety Ar'Darius Washington made his first collegiate start.
* Washington had his second interception of the season, tying Trevon Moehrig for the team lead.
* Washington added a career-high six stops.
