In terms of pure scoring opportunities created, this game should have finished somewhere in the neighborhood of TCU 37, Ole Miss 19. It was destined to be an easy TCU no matter what, despite four Horned Frog turnovers, but as bad as Ole Miss' offense was down-for-down, it was even worse when there were points on the line.

It's funny how things correct themselves, though. For much of the season, I was a little bit uneasy about Ole Miss' offensive ratings. They just felt a little too high for my tastes, even when Laquon Treadwell was healthy. This game knocked them out of the Off. F/+ top 30.

Those success rates. Guh.
