TCU player notes for Nov 18th, 2018


Jalen Reagor – Noteworthy
TCU was down to its third quarterback and last scholarship running back. Fortunately for the Horned Frogs, they still had speedy playmaker Jalen Reagor on the field. Reagor turned a screen pass into a 65-yard score and later had a 37-yard touchdown on a fourth-and-1 reverse run as the injury-plagued Frogs beat Baylor 16-9 on Saturday, keeping the Bears from reaching bowl eligibility in their home finale. “The way season has gone, I have to do things like this,” Reagor said. “When those injuries happened, I thought, all right, I’ve got to empty the tank more.” Reagor got the go-ahead score with 2 minutes left in the third quarter when third-string running back Emari Demercado took a direct snap. TCU’s last healthy scholarship running back started right and then flipped to Reagor sweeping the other way. Reagor had a wide-open lane to the end zone. TCU (5-6, 3-5 Big 12) can get to a bowl for the 16th time in coach Gary Patterson’s 18 seasons with a win at home next Saturday night against Oklahoma State. – AP College Football
