Arizona trailed 28-20 and its Big 12 hopes were slipping. Quincy Craig fumbled, Noah Fifita recovered it, and Craig caught a 15-yard touchdown two plays later. After the two-point try failed, Ian French's pooch kick got past TCU's front line, Ed Small couldn't hold it, and Zuri Watson jumped on the ball.

  • Records: Arizona 7-2, 4-2 Big 12; TCU 4-5, 2-4
  • Late push: Arizona scored nine unanswered points
  • Last week: Arizona lost 34-26 at Texas Tech

Coach Brent Brennan said "it was magic the way that game finished."
