Impact Payne was TCU's most effective offensive weapon, helping power a ground game that looked far more reliable than the passing attack. He ran hard throughout the rainy afternoon and was one of the few Horned Frogs consistently creating positive yardage, though UNC's defense tightened up in the second half and helped limit his overall impact. It's worth noting that back-up running back Jon Denman scored the only TCU touchdown, but it was clear that Payne is the primary back in this offense. The team will be on a bye next week before hosting Grambling State.
