STANFORD, CALIF — Aaron Brown scored on a short run with 4:13 remaining to complete a comeback, and Robert Henson batted away Travis Pritchard’s fourth-down pass to preserve TCU’s 38-36 victory over Stanford on Saturday.
A week after slowing down Southern Cal’s offense and pulling off one of the signature upsets in college football history, the Cardinal could not solve the TCU passing attack.
Andy Dalton threw for 344 yards and two touchdowns as TCU (4-3) ended a two-game slide. Brown rushed for 91 yards and caught five passes for 45 yards and a touchdown, and Jimmy Young caught three passes for 110 yards.
Pritchard, the hero of the USC upset, was 12-of-27 for 171 yards and two touchdowns for Stanford (2-4). Anthony Kimble added 109 yards and two touchdowns on the ground.
The teams traded scores through most of the first three quarters, with Kimble’s 15-yard touchdown early in the second half putting the Cardinal ahead 28-17.
