Passes Or Comfort: Texas Christian vs Arkansas Frogs Game

In Fort Worth the Frog offense under Dutch Meyer leans on the passing game. Over seven seasons TCU averages about 14 passes per game against Arkansas, with 316 attempts and a 72 percent completion rate for the Horned Frogs, while Arkansas has 192 attempts with a 39 percent completion. The 1535 meeting produced a high scoring shootout, and last year’s contest saw only nine passes. The piece argues the pass-and-raid style favors the Frog-Horn matchup at Fayetteville.
