This moment from Saturday’s game, where Horned Frogs QB Max Duggan is stopped just short, seems like an ending.
Especially knowing what we know now, that TCU Football eventually lost The Big 12 Championship in OT.
The thing (and really it’s the best thing about college athletics) is you can’t lose if you don’t quit. That run by Duggan, that willingness to leave everything on the field, to never give up was cited by the committee when answering why TCU is in the playoff. It is partially why Duggan is headed to New York City as a Heisman finalist. And it very well may be why he wins on Saturday and TCU wins a National Championship.
So congrats Max on being a Heisman Trophy finalist. And thank you for reminding all of us at The Ralph Lowe Energy Institute to never give up on ourselves, our dreams, our teammates.
