In front of a boisterous crowd at Rice-Eccles Stadium, TCU outlasted Utah 13-7, relying on a suffocating defense and key plays by quarterback Josh Hoover. TCU's offensive efficiency, highlighted by Hoover's 263 passing yards, proved vital against a determined Utah defense, which despite being under siege, managed to halt TCU's advancements in the red zone.
Utah's offense, however, faltered as they punted nine consecutive times before a spectacular 71-yard touchdown throw from Isaac Wilson to Money Parks reignited the home fans.
