No. 22 Arizona escaped TCU with a 29-28 victory on Saturday, powered by a dramatic late-game sequence. After trailing most of the contest, the Wildcats forced a turnover on an onside kick and kicked a decisive field goal. Noah Fifita threw a 15-yard touchdown pass to Quincy Craig with 1:45 remaining, but the subsequent two-point conversion attempt failed.
Arizona then recovered the onside kick at the TCU 26-yard line. Michael Salgado-Medina nailed a 37-yard field goal with 39 seconds left to take the lead. Tyrese Boss sealed the win with a late interception.
Despite a strong passing performance from Fifita (313 yards, two TDs), Arizona's defense struggled in the second quarter, allowing a 93-yard interception return for a touchdown. TCU's Jaden Craig rushed for two scores, but a late road victory slipped away. The win extends Arizona's home winning streak to seven games.
