<p class="MsoBodyText"><b><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif">WACO, Texas –</span></b><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif"> Stopped inside the 10-yard line on its first two possessions, TCU scored on essentially
its next six drives and pulled away for a 42-17 win over the Baylor Bears Saturday afternoon in the first Bluebonnet Battle at Amon G. Carter Stadium.
<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoBodyText"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoBodyText"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif">Redshirt freshman quarterback Josh Hoover threw for 412 yards and two touchdowns and also scored on a three-yard run to help keep the Horned Frogs (5-6, 3-5) alive for a
bowl berth, needing to beat 14th-ranked Oklahoma next week in Norman. <o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoBodyText"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoBodyText"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif">Baylor (3-8, 2-6) came up with a couple big defensive stops early, with Cooper Lanz forcing a fumble by Emani Bailey at the 2-yard line that was recovered by cornerback Caden
Jenkins and returned out to the 31. And then, Bailey and Savion Williams were stopped for no gain on back-to-back plays from the 6-yard line to turn it over on downs.
<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoBodyText"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoBodyText"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif">The Bears trailed just 14-10 at the half and 21-17 midway through the third quarter, when Blake Shapen scored on a two-yard keeper. But TCU scored 21 unanswered points, the
last one coming after Baylor went for it and failed on a fourth-down play from its own 31.
<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoBodyText"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoBodyText"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif">Shapen was 20-of-30 for 197 yards, hitting Dominic Richardson for a 10-yard TD pass in the first quarter, and also rushed nine times for 42 yards. Richardson added 67 yards
on 17 totes, while freshman Dawson Pendergrass had 43 yards combined rushing and receiving on 15 touches.
<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoBodyText"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoBodyText"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif">After Baylor pulled within 21-17 on the Shapen keeper, the Horned Frogs put the game away with touchdown runs by Hoover, Bailey and Trey Sanders. TCU finished with 531 yards
total offense, including 431 through the air. <o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoBodyText"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoBodyText"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif">The Bears return to McLane Stadium to close out the season with a Senior Day matchup against West Virginia (7-4, 5-3) next Saturday, Nov. 25, at a time to be announced. The
Mountaineers have won three of their last four and blew out Cincinnati, 42-21, Saturday in Morgantown.
