Horned Frogs Seek Redemption at Home
13 Sep
Summary
- TCU seeks first win after an embarrassing Week Zero loss.
- Grambling State is undefeated, outscoring opponents 97-33.
- Key TCU wide receiver Jordan Dwyer remains sidelined by injury.
The TCU Horned Frogs return to Amon G. Carter Stadium this Saturday, seeking their initial victory of the season after a significant Week Zero defeat. The team's offense appeared out of sync during their season opener, with new offensive coordinator Gordon Sammis and transfer quarterback Jaden Craig struggling to find a rhythm. Running back Jeremy Payne was a bright spot, rushing for 142 yards, but the Frogs will be without star wide receiver Jordan Dwyer due to a lingering injury.
Conversely, the Grambling State Tigers enter the matchup undefeated with a 2-0 record. They have dominated opponents, outscoring them 97-33. Grambling's offense is led by quarterback Reginald Johnson, who boasts an impressive 83% completion rate and averages around 200 passing yards per game. The Tigers also feature a strong running game with four backs averaging over nine yards per carry, spearheaded by Tony Phillips Jr.
This game presents a crucial opportunity for TCU to regroup and secure a win in front of their home crowd in Fort Worth.
