TWTW: TCU Caps UVA In Charlottesville

((HT: CharlottesvilleNewsplex))

TCU held Virginia's new spread offense to seven first downs Saturday, and the No. 16 Horned Frogs breezed to a 30-14 victory in their season opener.

Virginia (0-2) largely avoided the turnover problems that led to their opening loss to William and Mary, but couldn't get anything going against the stout TCU defense.

Virginia escaped its first home shutout since 1984 when Jameel Sewell heaved a 56-yard touchdown pass to Javaris Brown late in the game. He added 26-yard TD to Tim Smith with 1:48 left.

Before that, it was all TCU. Joseph Turner and Jeremy Kerley had TD runs, and Andy Dalton threw a 31-yard scoring pass to Jimmy Young. Ross Evans kicked three field goals
