TCU Secures Big 12 Win Over Colorado, 35-21, Marking Season Turning Point

The Colorado Buffaloes suffered a 35-21 loss to TCU in a recent Big 12 matchup, marking a tough outing characterized by turnovers and defensive struggles. Colorado's quarterback Kaidon Salter threw three interceptions, contributing to a total of four turnovers, which heavily influenced the game's outcome, as TCU capitalized with a gritty comeback to secure their first conference victory of the season. TCU quarterback Josh Hoover was instrumental, throwing four touchdowns and passing for 275 yards, while TCU's defense intercepted three Colorado passes and sacked the quarterback twice. Despite Colorado's offensive efforts, including standout performances by receiver Omarion Miller and running back Dallan Hayden, the Buffaloes' defense was repeatedly challenged, with the secondary allowing significant yardage and their star cornerback leading the team in tackles. This loss extends Colorado's recent poor performance on the road, contrasting sharply with last year's strong away-game stretch, and highlights ongoing challenges under head coach Deion Sanders' tenure. The game also ended Colorado's streak of limiting turnovers, while TCU maintained a long-standing scoring streak, underscoring the significance of this comeback win.
