Things are going well for the Fiesta Bowl underdogs so far!
TCU sophomore Bud Clark jumped in front of Michigan quarterback J.J. McCarthy’s pass, intercepting and taking it the distance for a Pick Six. It will go down as TCU’s 3rd Pick Six of the season and only McCarthy’s 4th interception of the year for the Wolverines.
Only 3 teams in college football have more Pick Six’s than TCU. Iowa had 2 Saturday in its Music City Bowl win over Kentucky.

TCU, the No. 3 seed in the CFP, is in business early, but has to find a way to move the ball against Michigan’s strong defense. it’s early, but the Horned Frogs only have 22 total yards of offense so far.
Still, the scoreboard reads TCU 7, Michigan 0 through the first 8 minutes. Just over 50 to go.
