In what seemed like a closely contested matchup on paper, TCU emerged victorious over Utah with a 13-7 win, thanks to a commanding defensive performance

With the pressure mounting, TCU’s defense stepped up and held Utah without points on the Utes’ final four drives. That included making two straight stops on fourth down. Savion Williams would then ice the game for TCU with 2:17 remaining as he converted a 4th-and-1 off a direct snap.

The Horned Frogs, who came into the contest with their own issues, managed to keep the Utes’ offense under wraps nearly all night.
