PROVO, Utah (Sept. 29, 2006) - BYU tight end Jonny Harline's fourth-quarter touchdown grab against No. 15 TCU was selected as one of ESPN's SportCenter's top-10 plays of the day.
With 7:27 remaining in the fourth quarter, quarterback John Beck lobbed a four-yard pass to his 6-foot-4 tight end. Harline, a Mackey Award candidate, reached out to make a spectacular one-handed grab for the touchdown to give BYU a commanding 31-10 lead over the nationally-ranked Horned Frogs.
Beck completed 23-of-37 attempts for a game-high 321 yards and three touchdowns. With his performance, Beck passed John Walsh (8,390) and Robbie Bosco (8,400) to move into third place on BYU's all-time career passing list. The senior quarterback has 8,422 career passing yards. In addition, with three touchdown completions on the night, Beck moved into a tie with Gifford Nielsen for seventh place on BYU's all-time touchdown completion list. Beck has 55 career touchdown passes.
BYU's victory over TCU ended the nation's longest winning streak at 13 and gave the Cougars their first road victory over a ranked opponent since 1999.
