FORT WORTH, Texas — Jimmy Young had a school-record 226 yards receiving and caught three touchdown passes to help No. 15 TCU defeat Wyoming 54-7 Saturday night.

Young had scoring catches of 60, 55 and 39 yards, and hauled in a 65-yarder to set up another touchdown as TCU (8-1, 5-0 Mountain West) won their fourth straight game.

Jimmy Oliver had the TCU record with 206 yards receiving against Texas Tech in 1994. Young, who had five catches, is just the second player in school history to record a 200-yard receiving game.

Young’s big day led a Horned Frogs offense which piled up a season-high 444 yards.

Wyoming (2-6, 0-5), who upset TCU last season, have dropped five in a row and have lost all their conference games by at lest 20 points.
