No. 8 TCU suffered its first loss of the season as the Horned Frogs’ 14-game winning streak was snapped in an 87-77 overtime loss to Utah on Saturday night in Salt Lake City.
The Horned Frogs (14-1, 2-1 Big 12) rallied at the end of the fourth quarter to turn a 64-60 deficit with 2:42 remaining into a 66-64 lead with 22 seconds remaining and Olivia Miles at the free-throw line.
Miles split her two shots at the free-throw line, increasing TCU’s lead to 67-64. The Utes (11-4, 2-1) took advantage of the miss and tied the game with 12 seconds remaining on a 3 from Lani White.
The Horned Frogs had multiple opportunities to win it at the buzzer, but Miles missed a 3-pointer and Marta Suarez couldn’t put back the miss.
In overtime, it was all Utah as White and Evelina Otto took over. After Miles tied the game at 69 with 4:06 remaining, White and Otto led a 7-0 run that helped the Utes pull away.
Miles scored eight of TCU’s 10 points in overtime and finished with a game-high 31 points, but it wasn’t enough as Utah became the first team to successfully outmatch the Horned Frogs’ top-rated defense.
TCU entered the night with the nation’s best scoring defense, allowing 49.4 points per game. It had allowed only one opponent to score more than 60 points.
The Utes leaned on the 3-point shot as the equalizer as they knocked down 13 and shot 56.5% from the field. White led the way with four and scored a team-high 25 points.
The loss also snapped TCU’s 12-game winning streak against Big 12 opponents dating to last season.
The Horned Frogs will get a chance to regroup at home next week as they’ll face Oklahoma State (13-3, 2-1) at 6:30 p.m. Wednesday and Arizona State (15-1, 2-1) at 4 p.m. Sunday.
