Carter Stadium in Fort Worth, Texas. The play that decided the game on Saturday was this two yard touchdown. Frog back Kyle Gillespie (40) is shown the eye of a Hurricane fleet.

The Frog blockers on the play are John Bond (34), Leonard Pugh (60), Nolan Sparks (24), Bill Crawford (61), and Frank Kring (30). T. C. U. went on to win the game 6-0.
