ARLINGTON, Texas -- Following an interception from TCU senior Andy Dalton, Oregon State took a 7-0 lead on a 30-yard strike from quarterback Ryan Katz to the heralded James Rodgers.

Rodgers, the most dangerous offensive threat next to his brother, running back Jacquizz Rodgers, was wide open down the middle of the field. TCU cornerback Greg McCoy had no choice. Oregon State must have seen something in the TCU defense that they exposed. On the Beavers' first possession, they went three-and-out.

The TCU defense on the TD was ugly, but perhaps not as ugly as the Nike Combat uniforms they are wearing.
