WVU's defense had a better showing on Saturday in the team's defeat at the hands of TCU, but head coach Rich Rodriguez said he saw more of the physical play he's been looking for on the defensive side of the ball.

WVU finally broke through. Fox hit Barnes and Bowie to get rolling, then found Vaughn to set up at the 28-yard line. On the next snap, Weimer beat his man for a 28-yard touchdown that cut it to 23–17 with just over three minutes left.

Fox cconected on 28 of his 41 pass attempts for 301 yards and two touchdowns. He was comfortable, in control, and had conviction in his decisions. It took a little while for Fox and the offense to find their footing, but once they did, they found a ton of success through the air.

Josh Hoover threw a touchdown pass, Nate McCashland kicked three field goals and TCU outlasted West Virginia 23-17 on Saturday night. TCU (6-2, 3-2 Big 12) barely outgained West Virginia 343-342 but made the most of its opportunities.

The Mountaineers flashed signs of life behind Scotty Fox but head into the locker room still looking for answers on offense.

TCU would then respond with a touchdown of their own as Josh Hoover found McAlister once again for a 4-yard passing touchdown, giving the Frogs a 17-7 lead. Chunk plays from Major Everhart and Jordan Dwyer allowed the TCU offense to make their way down into the West Virginia red zone.
