Hoover passes for 402 yards, 4 TDs
The Horned Frogs started fast. TCU scored on its opening three possessions, converting all seven third-down opportunities in the process, to take a 21-7 lead with 10:10 left in the second quarter.
TCU extended its margin to 28-7 on a 50-yard scoring pass from Josh Hoover to Jack Bech just 1:32 into the second half. Bech had a career day with nine receptions for 200 yards.
Hoover tied a personal-best with four touchdown passes, two to Savion Williams, while recording his third career 400-yard game with 402 yards. He completed 35-of-52 attempts.
TCU had a chance to win at the end, taking possession at its 25-yard line with 36 seconds remaining. The Horned Frogs drove to the UCF 40. On the game's final play, Kyle Lemmermann's 58-yard field-goal attempt had the distance but was wide.
TCU special teams played a big role with three blocked kicks. Caleb Fox and LaMareon James blocked field goals with Bud Clark having his hands on an extra-point attempt.
