Game recap: TCU 23, Gophers 17

We can't say he looked like a potential Heisman Trophy winner, but he got the job done, and looked excellent at times. He had 338 total yards and scored a touchdown running and throwing. He missed the mark more than once, but several times, especially when he was under pressure, he came through.

The senior Gophers defensive back had a forced fumble and an interception. He led the secondary, a group that kept Minnesota hanging tough in a first half that was otherwise miserable. Murray and his secondary mates were as good as advertised.
