00:03The TCU Horned Frogs suffered a heartbreaking 24-20 loss to the West Virginia Mountaineers in a game that came
00:09down to the final moments.
00:11It was homecoming Saturday for TCU, however both teams were looking to build on momentum from last week's wins.
00:17The two teams traded blows throughout the afternoon, but a costly fumble and a missed field goal by TCU proved
00:22to be a turning point as the Horned Frogs struggled to finish another close game.
00:26Following the loss, head coach Sonny Dykes pointed to execution as a major concern, saying the Horned Frogs have beaten
00:32themselves and failed to execute in critical situations.
00:35It's just a matter of not being able to make plays in critical situations, and it's happened to us over
00:41and over and over again this year.
00:43We just have not had an ability to put a drive together and win the game when we had opportunities
00:49to do it, to be able to pull away, to just execute basic plays.
00:53And so that got us again today. You know, it killed us.
00:59Despite the loss, quarterback Jaden Craig threw for 372 yards, completing 33 of 47 passes.
01:06Tight end Kari Ashley led the receiving core with 118 yards on six catches, while running back John Denman paced
01:13the rushing attack with 58 yards on 15 carries.
01:16Defensively, safety Jamel Johnson finished with 11 tackles, including seven solo stops.
01:21TCU will look to bounce back next Saturday as they return home to take on the Kansas Jayhawks.
