With the end of the regular season FCDallas (16-12-6 54 points) will host the Vancouver Whitecaps (12-8-14 50 points) October 29 in a Knockout Round with the winner to play the Seattle Sounders in the Western Semis.
The first quarter alone accounted for 512 combined yards for both teams. TCU would score two late field goals from the leg of Jaden Oberkrom for a 37-20 halftime lead. Essentially a 51-7 run after Webb Davis and Texas Tech closed the gap to 31-20 nearing halftime. Thirty points in an eight minute span amidst a flurry of turnovers.
Period three the came back to tie things at 2 after what looked like a shot from Damien Brunner that would ricochet off the skate of Kari Lehtonen but not before Patrick Elias had a hand pass to Brunner.
For those who like to keep track of such things the Dallas Mavericks prepare for Tuesday night having gone 4-4.
That 2012 meeting in some ways perhaps lessened the blow of the loss to Baylor two weeks ago when TCU outgained Texas Tech 516-389 before Seth Doege connected with Alex Torres for the game winner.
