#6 TCU Horned Frogs (12-1)

Offense sputters as TCU loses the big one

GLENDALE, Ariz. (AP) TCU's defense was supposed to make the difference against Boise State. Instead, a lack of offense did.

Andy Dalton was intercepted three times in the Horned Frogs' first leap onto the big stage. One was returned 51 yards for a touchdown, one set the stage for Boise State's game-winning drive and the third ended any TCU hopes with 18 seconds to play.

The result was a frustrating 17-10 loss to the Broncos in the Fiesta Bowl on Monday night. (MORE)
