Game summaryTCU scored the first with a Connie Sparks touchdown run, but O'Brien's kick missed, so they were only {{nowrap|up 6–0.}} Carnegie stormed back with a George Muha touchdown catch from Pete Moroz. Carnegie led 7–6 going into halftime, the first time TCU had trailed all season.[2][3] TCU rallied back with a Durwood Horner touchdown catch from O'Brien, who missed the extra point once again.

But this time he made the field goal, increasing the lead to 15–6 with seven minutes remaining.
